PS5 Emulation becoming viable on lower end PCs!

[u/agente4242]

Using Jetsku's KytyPS5 Fork as it has some fixes in both Astro games.

Build is an RTX 5060 + Ryzen 5 5600GT (Same performance as a 5500, 6c/12t), 16GB RAM. Game is Astro's Playroom.

It's still getting around 35 fps in the main lobby, but inside the actual levels its hovering around 45-60fps! Not sure I'd call it fully playable yet, but the progress is amazing.

Edit: fixed link. Meant lower end when compared to most showcases of these emulators being 5090s, X3D chips and DDR5... Better wording would be "current-generation lower end".

Also, people seem to be wildly overestimating the 5600gt. Genuinely can't run any triple-A RPCS3 game at a locked 30fps.

The msrp difference between the 5050 and 5060 is only ~$50. I'd argue that the 60 series are still entry level cards even if they aren't the absolute cheapest model Nvidia offers

A different brand would be a better value anyways for someone who is on a tight enough budget for $50 to matter

Entry level by definition is the first option in a group of items, in this case 5000 series GPUs. 5050 is entry, the first lowest option available. 5060 is low end/base level and grouping them together as entry level by arbitrary pricing makes no sense.
