Short version: The PS5Pro would be a wildly lopsided, nonsensical architecture to try to one to one replicate in a desktop PC… 2 GB system RAM will run lightweight linux os’s, but not a chance in hell you could run Windows 10 or 11 on that.

Fuck, even getting 7 to work with 2GB RAM would be quite a challenge… if not impossible, I think 7 required 4GB RAM minimum?

It’s shared memory, so you would need to guarantee access to 16gb on both ends.

The RX 6600 in the partpicker list is fairly close in terms of GPU performance.

I don’t know how you could arrive at such a conclusion, considering that the base PS5 has been measured to be comparable to the 6700.
