Estimate & test conditions

PS5 reference: 2024 = 100 · Input years: 2025 · Three-anchor Time Spy proxy v0.1 · Estimated · Extrapolated · Observed GPU samples; target performance may differ. The observed span is not a target performance bound. · GPU参考 only; all target scalar GPI fields remain null and scalar ranking is disabled. · Declared GPU power is a ceiling/limit, not measured Time Spy power or proof of mode equivalence. · No FP32, total/Extreme/CPU score conversion, averaging, TGP scaling, or generic iGPU alias transfer.
