YouTuber and console repair specialist Steve Porter who runs TronicsFix on YouTube discovered that the PS5 Pro sports a new machine-grooved heatsink design, which should help prevent the liquid metal TIM from leaking out or sinking down. This can potentially alleviate console orientation concerns and prevent oxidation spots on the die, which was a common cause for degraded thermals and repairs with the original PlayStation console.
