Expected performance
The video adds that the upcoming PS5 will have fewer Compute Units than the 60 available for the PlayStation 5 Pro. However, it is tipped to run much faster, as the upcoming RDNA 5 architecture from AMD is expected to bring a noticeable improvement in IPC performance, with better graphical output from each Compute Unit. It also might have either 160 or 192-bit GDDR7 memory compared to the PS5 Pro's 256-bit graphical memory.
