If the PS5 has a worthy future proof CPU, they can design the console to either have a regular PCI-E slot for a PC style GPU, or they can design their own proprietary third party AMD GPU card and slot.
This way, they could sell a base PS5 and Pro model at launch, with the same CPU but different GPU's, and allow customers to upgrade whenever they want, or whenever PS releases a specific GPU upgrade, yearly or bi-yearly.

This would make the console even more like a PC, but would be the best solution to the mid gen upgrade issues.
