In terms of performance levels, the GPU equivalent of this chip is the Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 Super. The AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT is a close option too, but it doesn't have ray-tracing, which the RTX does.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you're a PC gamer but you also want to stay on par with the latest gaming console generation, it makes sense to want to know what the PS5 GPU equivalent is. I've always been a spec-nut, and with each console generation, I love to see what it takes to match it on PC. If you want to know about how different GPUs stack against each other, I'm your guy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well then, without wasting time, we'll talk about the PS5 GPU and the <a href=\"https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/graphics-card\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">graphics cards<\/a> in the market which match it best.

The PS5 GPU is the custom-designed AMD Oberon chip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The GPU has 16 GB of GDDR6 video RAM, 2304 shading units, and 144 texture mapping units.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A teraflop (TFLOPS), which is basically a unit of computer performance, can be used to compare these GPUs at a glance. The PS5 graphics card has approximately 10.3 TFLOPS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is capable of playing games at up to 4K resolution at 60 frames per second, and can even push the frame rate up to 120 fps on some games, but at a capped resolution of 1440p.
