Ok then it makes sense why some are saying the XSX feels hot to the touch. It's mainly because the case comes into direct contact with the parts. With the PS5 there's a separation between the two so the outside shouldn't heat up as much.

Exactly. If both consoles produced the same amount of heat from use over 3-4 hours, then users shut them down and pick them up, chances are the Xbox will feel hotter to the hand because its a smaller, more compact box. Not an issue of course, just might change how users perceive the consoles. PS5 seems like overkill, super big, but it could be nice for the users if its cool & quiet.

 

[Kagey K]

I mean, just look at this. One looks like shit, the other looks awesome.

That's not really fair. I think the PS5 doesn't look that bad once the fins are off. Certainly shouldn't say it looks like shit, until they put the fins back on.

The first time I saw the XSX I was really impressed with how everything is together and how well designed it looked, after the PS5 presentation, my perception has changed A LOT, I want the XSX to have more room to breath now, but hopefully, both machines can run without any heat issues, we already know they are really quiet.

Here for my daily replies of users unable to cope.

Damn I thought games mattered but its how long it takes to move the box. Is this all we got left? "The 30 second instructional demonstration took too long."

At least making fun of the box's size makes sense, cuz it might not fit in some furniture lol. But this is just pointless.

 

[Nowcry]

What is the issue?

I think they are trying to get revenge on this video by lending games.

However, the difference is that this video serves to change the console's position, and the video back in 2013 tried to defend a gamers right.

But if we are dealing with the same thing ...........

That they resorted to that has made me feel ashamed, that they resorted to that.

Be honest, how many times will you change the position of the console? You essentially do it once and be done with it, once you find a good spot.

As is almost everything now. People are running out of things to bicker about, while we wait for these launches, so now every perceived flaw or advantage is being magnified to the hundredth degree.

It's beyond tiring now.

Yeah, I don't understand why they try to portray this as something that requires a big brain. Even XboxUK deleted their tweet now. Some might think those kind of poke at Sony might be funny, but that is exactly the kind of shit that rails up console wars.

 

[kyliethicc]

Dave Lee approves.

I completely agree. The PS5 design is so Japanese, so detailed. Seems like it will be a very cool and quiet system, thankfully.

Just goes to show what Sony's engineers/designers can do when they're given the freedom to make a big box and have an extra ~ $100 budget to work with (versus what they had for PS4.)

Some are saying the SSD is tricky to replace but after watching the video it's extremely easy to do. Just slide off the cover and take out a screw.

I wonder how critical the removal side panels' conductivity properties will be for the cooling. I'm hoping they can be switched out for reflective stainless steal or even colourless hollow plastic that can be filled with liquid metal to provide a terminator lava lamp look that also provides insight into the console's thermals by the motion of the liquid metal as heat passes through.

He's referring to why first party Xbox games prices don't matter too much in the end due to them being on GamePass from day 1 until the death of GamePass.

Liquid metal has a very long life if you choose the right alloy with the heatsink. They must be compatible so that they do not corrode each other.

Sony has already thought that for you, you just have to pay for the console. But if you want you can read their liquid metal patent where they talk about a new alloy with some details.

The useful life of correctly chosen liquid metal is much longer than that of thermal paste in all cases.

People Delid their PC processors and keep their metal liquid for many years. Much more than the useful life of a console.

 

[Imtjnotu]

In the tear down video at 3:18 you can see the screw holes for 110 and 80 with the hold down screw in the 110 hole.

Ps5 will suppose ssd lengths at 110.

 

[cudiye]

With how small and densely-packed this console is, I doubt that the rumours are FUD

 

[MasterCornholio]

The overheating or the ones where they said it feels toasty?

I can imagine it feeling pretty warm but I doubt that it overheats.

 

[kyliethicc]

So fellas, mbg said liquid metal has life of 4 years before it wears out- is this true?

maybe. The cheap thermal paste from the PS4 usually dried out in like 3 months, so anything is better than that.

Nah, only up to 80. Only 4 holes on the board.

Yeah the 110 hole has the screw in it it looks like, hence why no hole.

Was just going to say, I noticed that here:

PS5 will support all kind of Nvme M.2 SSDs from type 2230 to 2280 ( maybe 22110?? )

So, during the PS5 teardown video i've noticed some holes and numbers in SSD slot. Looks like all kind of today's available Nvme M.2 SSDs will be supported by PS5. So, slowest 2230 SSDs are with speed around 2.5 GB/s - 1 GB/s. Maybe that's enough for PS4 games. Faster ones ( 2280 ) like 980 Pro...

www.neogaf.com

 

[IntentionalPun]

Yeah looks like the screw and a bolt are there. I'd assume the bolt helps keep some space between the plastic and the drive on the bottom, and you move the bolt to whatever hole you need to use.

 

[Snowdonhoffen]

I don't think we will ever get that to be honest.

Yeah, but I'm sure we will get something related to the consoles in the RDNA 2 event. It could be something big or small, but I believe they will mention something about them.
