Can you compare noise to PS5 non-pro? Not scientific but what your own personal experience is
Sony PlayStation 5 Pro

And for clarity, ProsBeforeBros means audible noise and not raytracing noise.
That is only for a few seconds or when installing
Agreed. It’s ever so slightly ‘louder’ than my original PS5. But we’re really talking about going from near silent to teeny tiny slightly less silent. I only noticed it when I first got it as the house was quiet and I was busy setting it up. I don’t really hear it whenever I’m playing or when I’m not in a totally silent living room, which is basically never.
I have it vertical without the stand, does that matter?
I have two and they’re both louder than the original PS5. Not massively but noticeable. Although I’ve found that the coil whine isn’t as bad.

I want a reason to get one of these but at the moment I find it a bit hard to justify.
I´ve already played through forbidden west. Im done with spiderman 2. Cool with RT reflections in GT but I doubt it does a huge difference. "Hey, it you focus on the side of the other car when being busy taking this turn at 150kmh you can notice your own car being reflected."
Callistos RT mode looks so much better than the base performance mode, but the game suffers from too many design flaws anyway, so I doubt I would enjoy another playthru.
Space Marine 2 suffered a bit from blurry image on XSX in performance mode, but buing a pro and that game again to get i slightly sharper image...nah.
I think that leaves Alan Wake 2 for me.

In no way would I consider any iteration of the PS5 "near silent" or "teeny tiny slightly less silent" ... it's noisy as hell, full stop
That fan revs up and down constantly. WOOOooooshhhh woooOOOOOSSSSHHH WOOOoooooossshhh woooOOOSSSSSSHHH. The coil whine is also ridiculous.

You might have a defective PS5. The only times I have seen PS5's be loud is when they read discs. Other than that, you have to be really close to it to hear it above any game sound.In no way would I consider any iteration of the PS5 "near silent" or "teeny tiny slightly less silent" ... it's noisy as hell, full stop

I believe the problem to be that Sony uses four different suppliers for the fan assembly. Delta, Foxconn, Nidec and NMB. The Delta should be the quietest.
A quick search on the internet shows this to be the likely cause for the discrepancy owners are experiencing.
Also cooling 200W+ with a single radial fan is going to produce noise, that's just the way it is.

AW2 pssr is quite bad so for sure not reason for getting pro. Wukong (tough only 30 and 40fps modes), Space Marine 2, FF7 Rebirth, Stellar Blade, Crew Motorfest, F1 2024, No mas sky psvr2 thats titles with significal improvement over base ps5.

Lets Look at
Lord of fallen ps5 Pro performance
Developer Said ps5 Pro is running native 4k Max sttings now ps5 10tf running 1440p medium high
And 17 tlop rdna2x 2160p Max. Not that special.
Try to understand whatt console is
IT IS like racecar gamingpc is sportcar

Where did developer say PS5 Pro is max settings at native 4k.
You've also used the wrong chart.

They said this a few months ago.
Consoles use DRS and bottom out at 1296p in Quality Mode. You can't use PC's max preset and minimums fps for comparison. This assumes the Pro never drops below 2160p, something impossible since it's 66% more pixels per axis than the regular PS5.

You either have supremely excellent hearing or you really failed the fan lottery with yours. I have to put my ear next to it to hear when it's running, it's a slight woosh. While certainly not bothersome, my 3060 is noticeably 'louder', and it's prob the quietest GPU under load I've owned in the past 5 years.

The game has RT options on PC which aren't on console iirc so it's not running PC's max settings.
This is basically me trying to justify a 4090 over a 4070 or 4060 xD
