Will GTA6 run at 60fps on PS5 PRO ?

Personally, I think Pro models are a waste for current owners.  Performance is about balance, especially with GPU and CPU.  As someone who bought a ps4 Pro I was disappointed with the performance gain.  Pumping up one aspect while keeping the other flat just creates a bottleneck.  I could be wrong, been a while, but I think the ps4 Pro cranked the CPU but memory bandwidth barely moved.  The difference between the two was meh.  The ps4 pro was the only piece of hardware I bought that I regretted.

the ps4 versus pro also demonstrates how worthless teraflops are.  Massive teraflop increase, but visual output didn't look much different.  Given it was largely the same chipsets, just overclocked a bit.  

The PS4 Pro had a big GPU power increase while the CPU was only slightly better. Games on the Pro often had higher visual settings but a lot of the visual improvement was from increasing resolution so if something was say 1080p on the base PS4 it could be a significantly higher resolution upscaled to 4K on the Pro. The rumours point to a much smaller rasterisation improvement this time around but a big improvement in ray tracing which if true means the benefits per game will mostly come down to how hard a game pushes ray tracing.

That makes sense and explains a lot.  Don't get me wrong, resolution is nice, but I think we have hit a point where it doesn't have the impact it once had.  Something like RT or ultra settings has way more impact than going from 1080p to 1440p to 4k.  

I think someone looking to buy should go Pro, but someone with the old model, I think the cost of entry is too high and the upgrade just isn't there.  

Edit

Everyone is entitled to their opinions, but I'll drop resolution before fps and ultra settings.
