This is how to disassemble a PS5 and this is what it looks like on the inside.

According to our analysis, we will see much sooner what the Ps5 looks like from the inside than its own video interface. there is little time left, just a few days before it is officially announced.

Disassembling a Ps5 has never been easier and simpler.

We were already accustomed to the Japanese showing us the process of teardown a little bit exhaustive to let us see someone authorized to open the console to observe everything that is hidden behind the casing.

These video clicks are always very entertaining for computer scientists and curious to see the parts of the device, and also this sense makes it much easier to know how the console works. As a first point, the casings of 'PS5 are easily disassembled, which will facilitate external modification by inventive users.

Not only that, the fan has a diameter of 120 mm and a width of 4.5 cm. This makes it clear, in part, the size of the console. The active heatsink also has significant dimensions and will function as if it were a vapor chamber, although it is not.

The SoC, a combo of Ryzen Zen 2 processor with RDNA 2 GPU, has no thermal paste like you can buy in conventional electronicsThe liquid metal solution that we will see how it works, but in laptops like the Asus Zephyrus Duo 15 left us with a great taste in our mouths.

Power and efficiency: PS5 graphics core

Clearly, PlayStation 5 will be a powerful, very powerful and efficient machine, and is designed to optimize resources based on the existing demand for this feature in each video game. Mark Cerny admitted that the CPU and GPU cannot always run at 3.5GHz and 2.23GHz, respectively. "When the worst happens, it will run at a lower clock speed. But it won't be reduced by much. To reduce the power consumption by 10%, you only need to reduce the frequency by about 2%, so I calculated the reduction It will be very small. He explained again. The hardware itself, not the software.

With the help of the so-called intersection engine, real-time ray tracing can be guaranteed, which is "based on the same strategy as AMD's future PC GPUs", so the PS5 hardware is really close to the PC. High-end and mid-range. "I've seen a PlayStation 5 game that successfully used ray-traced reflections in complex animation scenes at moderate cost," without sacrificing console performance.

The importance of the SSD memory in PlayStation 5; 825 GB

After understanding the main functions of SoC and PlayStation 5, Cerny explained two aspects that will differentiate Sony's next-generation console in terms of speed and efficiency: SSD memory. The advantage of Sony game consoles in terms of speed and efficiency: SSD memory. According to British media estimates, it is now possible to load 2 GB of data in a quarter of a second. Thus, the 16 GB RAM of the PlayStation 5 can be loaded in two seconds.

The PS5 flash drive will connect the SSD module via a twelve-channel interface with a throughput of 5.5 GB / s, for a total of 825 GB of space. This is an odd number (different from 512 GB or 1 TB, which will be different in the Xbox X series), but according to Sony, this is the best number. "We can look at the NAND flash memory components available on the market and create products with the best performance/price ratio. People making M.2 devices don't have as much freedom. Without these standard sizes, it will be hard to sell. It helps to adjust the price to the Japanese publisher's current estimate.
