The Modding Cafe YouTube channel has released the first of a series of 4 videos in which the first is built PlayStation 5 with liquid cooling system. The youtuber's video is quite interesting, as the entire console modification process is shown Sony, and it is also useful to get an idea about the internal components of the console. The advantages of liquid dissipation are greater efficiency and silence. The operation of the system takes place mainly by convention and therefore by exchange of sensible heat or by exchange of latent heat. Who knows if anyone else will follow his example and try his hand at this endeavor.
Recall that the console motherboard uses the liquid metal, rather than the classic thermal paste, which allows to easily dissipate the high temperatures of AMD Ryzen Zen 2, which, however, could lead to a less lasting result, leading to a possible increase in noise over the years. The console heatsink is of considerable size, so much so that it occupies an entire side of the console, and the solution chosen is that of the heat pipe. The power system is rated at 350W. The main fan is 120 × 45cm.
