According to Mark Cerny, the biggest improvements of PS5 Pro are considered to be its new Ray Acceleration structure using BVH8 (Bounding Volume Hierarchy) and leveraging improved "Stack management in hardware," which means that graphics shader code is now better-managed, simpler, and more performant on the new hardware.

With every console generation, the jump in technology gets less and less noticeable to the point where Sony had to zoom in on the most hard-to-notice background details to sell its new PS5 Pro. We'll likely never have another brain-frying moment,

PlayStation 5 Pro head architect Mark Cerny said you really shouldn’t care about how many TFLOPS the PS5 can handle, calling it ‘flopflation.’

He says that the name takes cues from the blue-hued marketing of PlayStation and the red color of AMD's Radeon division to make purple. It represents a collaborative effort between Sony and AMD to develop machine learning hardware and software with the specific purpose of improving gaming.
