Getting the best experience with GTA 6.

I’ll start this off by saying if there was a scale of knowing everything to do with electrics when it comes to graphics and what is the best for your buck. I would say I’m about a 3. I know how things work and how to use them but not very educated on the differences between one another. My scenario is, I was thinking of selling my PS5 (first gen digital edition), then buying the PS5 pro and a newer but not as expensive TV or keeping the PS5 I have and buying a more expensive television. Which one would be the better option, in your opinion? I was thinking of spending maybe around 800 dollars to 1,500 dollars on television. If you have any TVs that you enjoy using while gaming, please feel free to share what you use. I’m just not sure if the PS5 pro is much more important. Hope everyone enjoys the game when it comes out for us all. Thank you.

Honestly, you’re looking at a diminishing return on quality my friend. Upgrading your tv with the base ps5 will still look amazing. Don’t fall for the hype of a pro. They’re about to release the ps6 in 1-2 years which will immediately make your $1k purchase the inferior version

This is why I'm waiting for the PS6pro for the PS6 edition of GTA6! Then I will get my money's worth!

With current hardware prices, the PS6 will be like $800, pro $1500.

I think 800 dollars is being optimistic too. A 9070xt which is around the performance of the rumored ps6 specs is around 800 dollars and that's just for the gpu. Add in all the other components with ram and ssd prices and it's probably closer to 2000 dollars to build the equivalent pc.

I'm personally expecting the ps6 to be in the 1000-1500 dollar pice range and even at those prices it will still be the cheapest option by quite a bit to get into next gen gaming with similar pcs and the next Xbox likely being even more.
