Sony is releasing their PlayStation 4 Pro this week, which is essentially a PS4 with a bit more oomph behind it. The console supports 4K gaming, and also boasts a faster processor and graphics card than the PS4. Eurogamer have been taking a look:

Whether it's embracing VR wholeheartedly or challenging the established console generation cycle, you've got to hand it to Sony - this company knows how to take risks. They don't get much bigger than PlayStation 4 Pro, a release that doesn't just ask you to upgrade your console, but your display too. Built primarily for the new wave of ultra HD 4K screens, the Pro offers both CPU and GPU upgrades over the current PS4. At its best, it offers stunning visual improvements over the same games running on base hardware, but even the more modestly boosted titles show clear improvements. Bearing in mind the entirely reasonable price-point, it's a highly compelling piece of hardware.

I really want to see how the "Pro" version will improve the VR headset, but it looks like we'll have to wait a good few months to see how it pans out. Can't see myself making the jump from the current PS4 standard though.
