That's a heat sink. If they need all that and a radial blower, it's easy to see how the early dev kit design couldn't ever keep up. I think they went all out for thermals and silence, a great thing for PS5 buyers.

Waiting for the HQ Die shot.
Some interesting points.
-Heatsink is insanely large
-Fan large and built different
-SSD chips compacted nicely to use less space.
-A look at the expansion slot

The rs180’s are 0 latency wireless. The base station is plugged into aux. Had them for what must be a decade now. High quality sound never goes out of date.I'm using headphones with 5 meter wire into the tv aux for Netflix (natively in the tv) and for PC usage. You can plug it in your DualSense and it'll be even more convenient

They aren't using a fan, would be classified more as a radial blower.

That Console does look big. Man it's a mind fuck when you see it at the Japan preview and then this.

Just a quick impression of the teardown: Some unexpected things and stacked flash chips (3x 4 stacks). That heat sink which I assume covers all of the APU/RAM/SSD is huge plus liquid metal confirmed.

Tell you what, externally it may be divisive, but internally it’s an absolute work of fucking art. The care and attention they’ve paid to this thing is obvious.

Looks like it'll fit 2280 form factor

The PS5 heatsink is fucking huge.
Cool to have removable plates, interesting that the M.2 bay is literally internal and hidden under the plate.
So fucking cool to see the teardown finally!

Pretty obvious. The Tweet he was replying to asked where the next-gen games were and Tom answered by talking about current game patches.

Well thats fucking great.....i was simply pointing out its not liquid cooling and im reply banned from the thread
Its Thermal Paste...abit a higher grade compared to the standard clag that went on the ps4 pros

That’s because it is liquid metal cooling, not thermal paste. He literally shows it, and yet you still try to claim it is something otherwise. That’s probably the reason for the ban.

I thought Godfall had all the shiny stuff in it.

Have you noticed the ease with which the casings are removed to be able to extract the accumulated dust in the respective compartments without causing the loss of the guarantee?
Thus opening the doors to custom cases...?

So no stacked RAM. But the cooling system looks pretty impressive - isn't that very expensive, that much metal?
Can someone deduce from the teardown how much cache the PS5 will have?

This is the dumb shit people were moaning about....what a bunch of knobs. It's a computer....whoopty fucking do. I thought these teardowns were supposed to reveal something interesting, but it's just taking apart a computer. You can do that in your house. The packaging is different, but the components are the same. I took apart an 8086 when I was 10 years old, and a Sinclair when I was 6. This was not worth the noise that some people were making. I almost want to go back through this thread to find all the wankers that were complaining about not getting this video, just so I can put them on ignore. You are horrible and miserable people. This is a big, fat nothingburger.

I think it was because you made the assumption that it will sound like a jet engine.

Impossible without a die shot, and even that would require comparisons to known dies, like the XSX SOC.

PS5 base has screw for vertical orientation, hidden storage for that screw inside the stand, cap for screw hole, and PS symbols on plate to help users align the stand when in horizontal orientation. The stand rotates when switching orientations with a satisfying click lol. So many cool little details, thoughtful design.

Asus Will Use Liquid Metal Thermal Paste in Its Laptops - ExtremeTech
Asus will adopt liquid metal thermal paste on its Intel 10th Gen laptops, to improve cooling temperatures -- and help handle the heat.

The application method is different but the term i was trying to articulate before the SDF mashed the report buttons was that the heatsink was not a liquid cooling based method meaning the heat will not dissipate as fast
the cooling fan is also very similar to the pro except the physical size and intake areas were much larger...but it also means more dust which leads to the same problems as the pro

No. The cache is within the APU, you can't really see it on the board.

If only my penis was as big as my GamerScore!
Yet is is okay to run wild with the Series X overheating BS. I guess let them have a day or two over there. They have been taking a beating lately.

Jesus Christ. I know you're an Xbox fan, but come on dude. It's an impressive piece of kit internally. It's perfectly okay to acknowledge that something that you're not necessarily a fan of is quite good. Go on. Give it a shot. It won't kill you, and might actually make you feel better

Okay, but the extremely efficient looking Japanese man in the short sleeved shirt clearly stated that it's a liquid metal cooling mechanism. You can't then start saying that it isn't, it's just thermal paste, and not expect a certain amount of deserved backlash. You're essentially saying you know better than the Sony engineer, or you believe he's lying. That doesn't really contribute anything to the conversation, so I understand why the mods felt it best to steer you away from it.

I'm only getting a PS5. Never owned an Xbox. Owned every PS ever made, save for the Vita. This was not worth people crying and spreading FUD. This is what I see once or twice a year, when I take my laptop apart to swap drives or clean the vents. This teaches us nothing useful. Meanwhile, Sony has shown a number of next-gen games, which is about the only thing we can actually engage with, and manipulate. I'm literally dumbfounded by how high a priority some posters in this thread made this video. This ranks somewhere down near backwards compatibility on my list of important next-gen information. I learned how computers were put together when I was a child. This shouldn't be revelatory for anyone old enough to post on the internet.Jesus Christ. I know you're an Xbox fan, but come on dude.

Not quite yet. We still need UI breakdown and all that before speculation is really "complete". Lots more to come and only a short time left to do it.

PS5 M.2 SSD expansion bay. Looks like it might support various M.2 form factors. Markings for 30, 42, 60, and 80. M.2 form factors are 2230, 2242, 2260, and 2280. Looks like we will have 4 sizes of M.2 SSDs to pick from. Each size has its own screw hole to install.
