Obsidian has removed the bad PSSR implementation seen at launch and reverted back to TSR, which results in better performance gains, less noisy RT and a sharper image on Pro. Performance mode has less, more static foliage (at close distances) and lower quality (and therefore less realistic) UE5 Lumen/Virtual Shadow Maps. The lower internal resolution also leads to a noticeably softer/less stable image. Base PS5 has slightly worse framerate stability and internal resolutions compared to the equivalent mode on Pro, which leads to more instability/breakup - especially in performance mode.
