A few AMD roadmap features are appearing for the first time in PS4 Pro. One of the features appearing for the first time is the handling of 16-bit variables – it’s possible to perform two 16-bit operations at a time instead of one 32-bit operation. In other words, at full floats, we have 4.2 teraflops. With half-floats, it’s now double that, which is to say, 8.4 teraflops in 16-bit computation. This has the potential to radically increase performance.

I'll wait for benchmarks. these magical performance gains always look good on paper, but often don't really do much in the real world
True,but I would never count Sony out... they always have a hattrick up the sleeve to jump ahead

they are an electronics company, so it wouldn't shock me.

But Cerny Da Gawd does it again :wow:

I doubt it'll hit the theoreticals but if comes even halfway close or even a 25% gain, that's impressive.

My question is why the fukk wouldn't MS include it in the X1X though? :wtf:

And 2, when will this hit the Pro?

Yes in the article it says Sony used the roadmap future feature in the PS4 Pro, it will probably be used by the time Xbox One X happens and Microsoft didn't use it because they think DirectX is the due all and end of prophecy tech
