PS5 reference: 2024 = 100 · Estimated · Extrapolated · Applies to the named sample and mode, not a target whole-device measurement. Default samples prefer matching named CPU/GPU and known RAM/storage, then ordinary Turbo, Performance or Balanced modes; never the highest score. Ranges require matching hardware and method conditions. USB-C, special and unknown-power conditions remain in the retained records below. AC/Battery values are not a loss ratio or guaranteed performance bounds. Battery is unavailable when no eligible battery sample is recorded.
