Why ps4 pro does not run destiny 2 at 60 fps

The arrival of the PS4 Pro and the future arrival of the Xbox One Scorpio makes users wonder whether video games are going to continue to operate at the same 30 FPS as they are now or are going to make the leap to a much more fluid 60 FPS. A question whose answer seems increasingly clear after the arrival of Destiny 2 on PS4 Pro at a speed of only 30 FPS.

PS4 Pro doesn't have enough CPU for Destiny 2 at 60 FPS

Luke Smith and Mark Noseworthy of Bungie were asked in an interview with IGN about the benefits that PS4 Pro can bring to the game, including whether it will be able to run it at a frame rate per second higher than the original PS4 model. The short answer is that Destiny 2 will not be able to run at 60 FPS on the PS4 Pro because its CPU is underpowered.

The console, the PS4 Pro is very powerful, but it couldn't run our game at 60 FPS. There is not enough power for the physics simulation of our game in the crash of the players, networks, etc… it would not work, there is not enough power.

The PS4 Pro offers a huge increase in the power of its GPU compared to the original PS4, approximately double what helps to improve the resolution of the games and more stable framerates, even the ability to reach 60 FPS. The problem comes from the CPU that is only 30% more powerful than the original console and the memory bandwidth, only 24% higher, which is not enough to go from 30 FPS to 60 FPS.

Destiny 2: Recommended and Minimum Requirements for PC

In essence we are facing what we all already knew, the PS4 Pro offers very uncompensated hardware with a very powerful GPU but a CPU that is not capable of making enough drawing calls to get the most out of it, therefore it is much easier to do than games achieve higher resolutions instead of higher frame rates per second. The increased resolution is not an extra burden on the CPU.
