Support NeoGAF

[geordiemp]

That was going to be my first question to %99.9999 Of Neogaf members who are engineers by profession degree..

so this shit once again a commercial flight for another 7-8yrs,??? dissapoint if it happens to be the case.

Maybe some of us are, whats your point ? Its a great design, spread heat sink over a larger section is better.

Centrifulgal fan probably moves more than 10 x more air at same RPM, it will shift some CFM if it needed and be quiet

Secret Sauce™

This Gif needs to be in every Sony thread going forward.

 

[Mr. PlayStation]

No idea what I'm talking about, but that heatsink looks big.

Hoping for an English version.

You will not get an english version, this is how Sony did even with the PS4 Pro teardown. A Japanese hardware engineer did the teardown while speaking in Japanese.

 

[BaneIsPain]

That is one sexy console teardown.

 

[a multicultural team of v]

There is something reassuring about seeing a Japanese Sony engineer in a short sleeve button up shirt carefully deconstruct this beauty

its the button up short sleeve that has given me confidence in my preorder

if you are ever presented with an engineer and they arent wearing a short sleeve button up you are being tricked

 

[Traxtech]

It looks like it's brass or something too. Is that to contain liquid metal?

No it's just copper heat pipes, which has the best heat transfer for cooling. Fins are nickel, which is the next step down from copper in regards to transfer I believe(actually, given the cost it's probably aluminium)

Something that size would be on par with a vapor chamber since it has 4 massive heat pipes on one section and 6 on the apu plate section. Biiiiig heat dispersion is at play here

People should be heaps happy with the result

 

[Papacheeks]

I don't think it is clear at all what that is.

I can tell that those are screw holes, and the numbers mean the length type of the NVME. You need to secure an NVME in almost any PCIE slot. This is no different. the bracket looks like it goes over top hence why they said NVME's with heatsinks would be possible issue. The metal plate foes over top and then screws into place once you set in your NVME.

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

I don't think it is clear at all what that is.

It's an M.2 NVME slot

I'm not sure how much more obvious it needs to be

 

[RookX22]

Turns out the Japanese have a lot of words for vapor chamber...

I ment I heard him say it in english basically around the 6:35 mark.

 

[ManaByte]

So it sounds like any PCI 4.0 SSD as long as it fits?

I wonder if those Corsair ones with the big heatsink will fit.

 

[mitchman]

2TB will be almost the cost of a PS5 Digital. Wait for prices to come down in a year or so and just deal with the 665GB:

Corsair Force MP600 M.2 2280 2TB PCI-Express Gen 4.0 SSD - Newegg.com

Buy Corsair Force MP600 M.2 2280 2TB PCI-Express Gen 4.0 x4 NVMe 3D TLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) CSSD-F2000GBMP600 with fast shipping and top-rated customer service. Once you know, you Newegg!

www.newegg.com

Samsung 980 Pro 1TB is only USD $220 or so, and it's rated at 7 GB/s read speeds, should be enough.

 

[Max_Po]

Okay so ps5 has on-board 825 g ssd in 3 parts ... (whatever they are called; soldered on the motherboard)... from that you get 665 gig.

OS takes up to 160 gigs

Engineer says 2 years spent on liquid metal testing/preparation.

Although using heat pipes, performance is similar to vapor chamber.

 

[ghairat]

THAT HEATSINK THO.

 

[SNG32]

Dope Video. Looks like you will be able to get shells for it. I'm not a fan of the white so I can't wait to put black shells on it.

 

[and 3 others]

I ment I heard him say it in english basically aroubd the 6:35 mark.

Sorry, I'm a shit poster and do so at any given chance. Carry on.

 

[RookX22]

There are some people in this thread being obtuse. Insert shawshank.gif

 

[martino]

 

[A Most Virtuous Cat]

Xbox be like: "we have a fan"

 

[mitchman]

I don't speak japanese but I am pretty sure he said vapor chamber.

He said the cooling gives the same performance as a vapor chamber cooler.

 

[Dr.D00p]

IMO, That huge heatsink is a cheap out option that's been taken, It may have the same cooling capacity as a vapour chamber solution but its done so at the expense of cost & form factor size

 

[Nikana]

Looks much better designed for airflow than any of their previous machines which is great. At that size of machine combined with a centrifugal fan and liquid metal, if its anything but quiet I will be shocked.

 

[dotnotbot]

No idea what I'm talking about, but that heatsink looks big.

Hoping for an English version.

Protip: this vid has subtitles

 

[Aranea]

Nice!!!

 

[redfirm]

Thank you, i just bought a bunch of domains related to this and will probably start a custom panels business and use my 3d printers to their fullest.

 

[Aguero9320]

Standard PCIe 4 port.

Open cover, insert SSD, close cover.
Boot PS5, format SSD.
Done.

Those drives get hot as fuck though... Melt right through that plastic?

Thing is fucking huge. Almost embarrassingly so. It's almost the size of an old beige desktop. Really not looking forward to having to deal with that.

 

[kuncol02]

Is that sponge there to keep it from seeping out and shorting other components?

Probably. That's biggest risk with using liquid metal instead of thermal paste.

PS5 Teardown: An inside look at our most transformative console yet

Your first look at PS5's internal components that will power the next generation of amazing games.

WTF out of nowhere

 

[CrysisFreak]

Fuck yeah SSD is literally on the board itself.
And that thicc IO controller will not joke around.
Dedicated hardware makes me cum.

 

[Thesnipergecko]

Well now we know. We can replace the covers.

 

[VAVA Mk2]

Edit: NM it is the SSD slot.

That looks like an M.2 slot to me.

 

[Papacheeks]

So it sounds like any PCI 4.0 SSD as long as it fits?

I wonder if those Corsair ones with the big heatsink will fit.

If you paid attention to Sony blog post they clearly state M2 ssd's with large heatsinks will probably not work. SO anything tall like corsairs won't fit.

 

[Neko Mimi Mode]

It's absolutely enormous, wow.

Liquid metal is super impressive and definitely, combined with the size, adds weight to the report that it's a whisper quiet machine.

 

[Moses85]

I already used this for my PS4 Pro

 

[M1chl]

edit: The pcb is way too big with empty space on it, there is ton of plastic and empty spaces. The console could've been 2x smaller. They are surely preparing slim

That's not how it works, it could be big, simply because of thermal design or it is big, because they wanted to safe manufacturing cost of more layered board, this the amount of interconnections on the board is so big, it's displaced on the surface rather then in the depth of the PCB.

 

[redfirm]

XSX is even more impressive now, they managed to fit all that power without it being half the size of a human

can you please take this console warring somewhere else, nobody asked about xbox,

 

[DonkeyKong]

wow that is one big old unit...

 

[and 3 others]

It's absolutely enormous, wow.

Liquid metal is super impressive and definitely, combined with the size, adds weight to the report that it's a whisper quiet machine.

Jesus, that's bigger then his torso!

 

[RayHell]

That looks like a standard m2 interface to me.

You even have screw holes for each m.2 format.

 

[TranscendentDee]

Too make it easier for consumers I hope future SSDs say "PS5 compatible" on the packaging.

 

[mitchman]

Those drives get hot as fuck though... Melt right through that plastic?

Not with a heatsink.

If you paid attention to Sony blog post they clearly state M2 ssd's with large heatsinks will probably not work. SO anything tall like corsairs won't fit.

Never seen that, in what article did they say that?

 

[smallpotatosan]

I watched the video. What an utterly pointless demand some people were making. So much pining for a teardown when it's just like any fucking computer. Fan, PCB, drives, heatsink, and power supply. OH MY GOD! The fucking world has changed now that I see this.

I'm a goddamn computer engineer, and this is completely and utterly useless. You learn nothing of importance from this. What, the cooling solution? Who cares? The damn unit has to stay as-is, in the closed case, for it to work. Knowing that it's a 120mm fan changes nothing at all.

I don't know why, but I'm now completely vexed that there were people howling at the moon for this, and spreading all kinds of FUD as a result of not having this video. A bunch of fucking drama queens. Ugh.

Oh, it means a lot for some people. Just watch for FUD about liquid metal cooling and how problematic it will be in the long run. I'm sure we will see something like that later today or tomorrow.

 

[Max_Po]

It's absolutely enormous, wow.

Liquid metal is super impressive and definitely, combined with the size, adds weight to the report that it's a whisper quiet machine.

 

[Snakeeyes646]

Gonna spray paint the white covers black day one.

 

[DonF]

They put a freaking liquid metal slime for cooling! How cool is that, also, noise dampers on the br drive and a huge heat sink!!

Thing is going to run smoothly!

 

[geordiemp]

I'll just wait for my trusted friends at DF to do a true teardown.

They are not hardware engineers, their speciality is graphics analysis and what they are good at. I am sure others willl do good teardowns in time.

 

[vaibhavpisal]

Very fancy thermal paste.

Heatsink itself looks like size of PS4 slim.

Cutting edge stuff that nobody will care about. Shows Sony is electronic company first.

 

[Coulomb_Barrier]

Liquid metal capsule and even dust catchers. Super premium, Sony making a hard loss @ $399 for DE.

 

[ThaMonkeyClaw]

Haha, I was right on the other thread on the location of the NVMe slot!

 

[FranXico]

I don't speak japanese but I am pretty sure he said vapor chamber.

He said that the airflow combined with that heat pipes design results in a cooling as efficient as that of a vapor chamber.

 

[Dibils2k]

holy shit that truly looks enourmous they should have got a bigger guy to show it

i really think we could get customised side plates, looks simple to take off
