PSP 2 specs leak points to a powerful PlayStation handheld from Sony


The next PlayStation Portable won't be a slouch in the graphics department

According to leaker KeplerL2 – who has a reliable track record for AMD-related information and was first to reveal the PS5 Pro’s specs that were extremely close to the finished product – the processor, or APU, inside Sony’s handheld might be based on a brand new architecture. These measures are designed to help alleviate the existing issues that previous AMD-powered handhelds have had with memory bandwidth in the past that can hamper overall performance. In addition, as much as AMD is sticking with a 128-bit bus for memory rather than a 256-bit option, being based on a 3nm process from TSMC would have the benefit of higher density and efficiency, even though development costs remain expensive at the moment.
