A TV upgrade would be much more beneficial. Save this money and put it towards an OLED. That will be an absolute game changer for you. The PS5 Pro is such a small upgrade. I say that as a huge PS5 fan, who really wanted a Pro, until I saw it in action. I can't justify spending hundreds more for a little better version of something I'm already very happy with.
Have base PS5 and recently got the Pro bc I needed a 2nd console and it fit my budget, so made sense to just go w/ the latest gen. It's not worth the upgrade if you already got PS5, the Pro basically delivers base PS5 Quality Mode-level graphics in Performance Mode. It's also borderline unconscionable for Sony to use same CPU in the Pro as the 5yr old base PS5.

I got burned on the "Pro" version of the PS4 and from what I've read it was a bigger improvement over the 4 than this Pro iteration is of the 5. At least the 4 Pro natively came with a disc drive included for $399. I can't even recommend the Pro 5 over the standard 5 with or without disc drive if you don't have a 5. This is SD after all so stick with the PS5 with disc drive on sale.

When GTA6 comes out next year and still won't be on PC on day 1, then the PS5 pro will show its worth, until then, its a small marginal improvement over the base PS5
Something tells me GTA6 is def going to price at $99 when released..... they know people will still buy it at that price point, don't' be surprised when it's $99. Either way it will break every record for entertainment including any film release, etc.
So close to pulling the trigger on the Dell deal. Got the 10% coupon and $100 AMEX. I just don't think I'd play it enough to justify it. More excited for Switch 2.

I want the Switch 2 as well, but I went with the PS5 Pro, as I just don't think we will ever see it for $200 off in the next couple of years.

Disagree entirely. As someone who already has an OLED, the PS5 Pro was a game changer literally in terms of game performance, smoothness, and enjoyment. Getting a solid 60 fps in most game in quality settings doesn't make me motion sick like my regular PS5 would.

They can be had fairly easily now though at or below MSRP after the scalping fiasco last year, but you will be adding $70-$90 on top of this price.
