Im hearing the contrary then. People are saying that they dont know if the RT cores in the RDNA2 are tied to the compute unit or are separate. If they are tied to the CU then the XsX could see big improvements as it will have core RT cores and more CU's, but if its not the RT cores will be a fixed number that both consoles will have and clocked faster on the ps5 and will better performance. The XsX could use the extra compute power  for ray tracing but it wont outperform the dedicated RT cores. 

From the presentation seems more like both Audio Tempest and RT cores are their own entity on the chip instead of being mini parts of each CU.

Could be the case. But even if so, it still does not mean that both will have the same number of RT cores.
