They don’t let him have sharp objects on the ward. Not after what happened with Crazy Eyes Bob in the laundry room.

They didn’t.
I assume it’s more likely they couldn’t as every single household will have varying degrees of dust build up that will effect the console. You can’t realistically account for every circumstance.

3.1 Million views if a smartly dressed Japanese man unscrewing some electronics.
You don't know the depths of thirst:
PS5 power cable shown; is one of the most interacted with gaming tweets of the week (counter-clickbait; it's a plain ass power cable)
I literally used to joke on Gaf all the time that PS5 hype was at the level where them showing the power cable would be one of the most interacted with gaming tweets of the week...And here we are...
(but this one is actually really interesting)

If you don't have a screwdriver on hand for anything then you're screwed.
I'll see myself out.
Why is there a playstation 5 building in the background? Is this continuing the PS3 building tradition?
I don't think you'd need your car to bring it home... probably something larger like a crane or something.
Seriously though, as someone who's interested in inner workings and all, I am pretty delighted that FINALLY I got to see what I've pre-ordered for.
Same goes to Xbox Series X - that as soon as they had their internal showing of how it's made, I was convinced that I would buy that machine too, even though I skipped Xbox on this current gen.
Yes, it will be LARGE, but I will think of having a super slim AV receiver or sort. (It's smaller than Marantz Slim AV receiver that fit into my current cabinet, so I'm sure it will work find)

Yes, it comes with a full Stanley roll away chest of tools including the required angle grinder and forklift.

One point that maybe hasn’t been brought up yet:
This thing seems very easy to take apart, which bodes well for potential repair issues in the future.

Good point, you just reminded me actually.
Hasn't there been some sort of directive (EU?) been passed that requires devices to be accessible and fixable to certain degree?

What time is it?
Insomniac doing work. No wonder they had to charge for the Spider-Man "remaster".

A pair little xbones as desk toys and the PS5 menacingly towering far above in the distant skyline.

Won't the size and weight be issues for Japan? I know it's already not the best place for home consoles already but this wouldn't fit in most average shelves, and since many TV's take up near the width at the top you can't really set it next to the TV either, so you'd have to put it on the floor or on a separate table.
This was also somewhat of an issue with the original Xbox One but it could still fit just would take up near the whole space.

Only one who should read anything about that is you.
There is your not existing corrosion:
Galinstan - Wikipedia
It also reacts with copper, but resulting alloy is not as brittle.
And there is your not existing degradation:

Liquid Metal Degrading After 6 Months
Hey guys, Recently I've noticed that my cpu temperatures have been consistently going up, and this time I have pictures to prove to myself that I'm not going crazy . As you can see when I first applied the liquid metal to my 8700k (6/1/18), I was getting amazing temperatures with highs in the mid...

Do you mean the back bracket? Every GPU has those.
It just presses the PCB and APU against the heatsink. It even has plastic to protect the capacitors on the back.
The patent was with heat pipes and heatsinks on both sides of the chip.
I thought I saw a smaller heatsink on the opposite side of the mother board in addition to the mother of all heatsink in a console?

My phone is 20x more powerful than it. No excuse for this monstrosity whatsoever
If your phone is more powerful than the PS5, I want what you're smoking!

Am I the only one here not liking that thing?
Seems a bit overengeneered, I think it could be done less modular and much MUCH better looking... I'll probably get it later, if I'm not busy playing other consoles and/or PC.
The cooling system, while looking like "too big", I think it's amazing, that's for sure.

Yep, they got this far without any of their engineers considering this despite depicting it standing up and designing a stand to stand it up with.
Luckily, you figured it out and I'm sure they will read this and re-design it before launch.

Glad I could help. Let's hope they also assembled it laying down

This is what the patent looks like.
There's probably enough liquid metal to fill the whole cavity especially when it has a heatsink placed on top. If done correctly there shouldn't be any air gaps.

Maybe the plates are necessary.
Would transparent plates satisfy you?

Not yet, I'd assume SONY has met with SSD manufacturers and road mapped what is coming over the next 5 years and built accordingly.

Has there been any explanation (or clarification) as to why it seems like the air intake is at the top?
Maybe it's a bad Japanese to closed caption translation. Maybe the fan at the top is actually the exhaust. But if the air intake is at the top, that's just ... bad design?

Looks like I'll have to get that extended warranty so I can mail my ps5 in for repair every 6 months. Damn liquid metal.

Really? I thought 8GB of GDDR5 RAM in 2013 was quite exotic?I like what sony engineers are cooking. It looks like a premium product, unlike PS4.

Well if it was that obvious don't you think they would have done something different?
I understand that heat rises but there's probably a reason why they chose this design.
