Great video, however, the sad truth most retro gamers dont want to hear is that PS1 looks its best on a CRT with the default AV cables. It smooths out the jaggies and you cant see the dithering. Anything above S-Video, Component up to HDMI just makes the image way too sharp and jagged and you see dithering EVERYWHERE. Silent Hill 1 is barely playable for me with all the dithering.

You could install a PS-IO as well and still retain disc access since it plugs into the I/O port in the back. I've had mine for a couple of years and it's great!

Ya the end result looks fantastic, but that solder work is utterly astonishing

I love this! It's like Austin Evans' Ultimate ______ Build videos, but you actually do some PCB modding and upgrading of retro tech. Kind of what I think AE should do (even though he's more surface level 'modding' than PCB level modding).

I have a PSIO. I prefer it over the the other two since you can just remove it form the parallel port then you'll be able to play your official discs. (At least for me. You can supposedly boot a disc from the PSIO menu but it doesn't work for me for some reason, but it may have to do with my shitty soldering job installing the switch board lmao)

Absolutely fire, as always

I loved the original playstation and it is great to see this mod is available for it. I definitely want to collect more older consoles (like my Dreamcast) to play them today and play them for the next 20+ years. The PS1 is now under consideration.

Syphon Filter brought back memories. I used to play these games a lot back in the day. I love the theme music and I hade even made my own version of it as a tutorial to FruityLoops - now I just need to find where I have saved it...

I have one of these coming in the mail,but I will attempt it myself one day

Oh man, Siphon Filter, I forgot that game existed. What a throwback

I’ve installed a few of them now. The video and audio is amazing. It’s too bad you can’t install the xstation because it’s really fantastic too! Makes firing up games so easy. Nice video on the process and letting people know about the challenges with the GPU cable. How would you say it compares to installing the DCdigital?

You have an I/O port on the back, so you could install a PSIO by Cybdyn. You will be able to boot games from an SD card via the I/O port and still us CD games if you want via the laser.

Is this better than the Levelhike? I bought it for both my PS1 and PS2 and it looks great on my 4K tv. Is this notably better or just a slight improvement on that?

Digging the upgrade series man, let's go find you that sd card, then that would really make it age a lot better than the classic mini. Looking buff in the coordinated clothing too my dude. Remember the philosophy: better to look good in cheap shirts than look bad in expensive ones.

wow this is amazing stuff.

Are there certain models that this only works with? Does it work with the little PsONE revision that came out later?

thanks to this video, i fould out about 2 ps1 games i used to play but completely forgot about.

the audio quality is amazing

I wish you did a side by side with a ps3 to see the difference all in all great video

This is a great system with PS1Digital. I have done two PS1Digital mods and one xStation so far; if I want to play with disks I can do that also. Putting so much money into these you should also recap the power supply and potentially the mainboard. I used cheap flipdown magifiers and cheap USB microscope to inspect the work. Enjoy!

Yes, it's neat. You've upgraded the PS1 🙂. I do think it needs more shaders. I've found 3 best shaders: advanced-aa, 2xScaleHQ, & super-eagle. If it could get a filter thing going on with those particular shaders, that would seal the deal for the picture 👌🙂. Oh! & was thinking about you doing this for PS2 as well.

Ultmeeeeh Praystation very good, much nice!

I love watching this kind of stuff. I thought about doing this with some of my consoles, but I know I would just destroy them lol.

This may be the 1st time I've like a Spawnwave video

should show a side by side comparison of the games running before and after the upgrade.

Meanwhile i crapped my pants taking the top off my ps4 slim the other day

Mega man Legends. All the nostalgia hit. I hope they do a reboot or new series open-world game of Megaman again. I would love that.

this playstation is missing the rca jacks those are so nice because you do not need to find some proprietary cable like you would with other videogame systems. i love how all the new systems use hdmi for the same reason

I use a MODE ODE in my PS1 with PS1Digital, but I think it's also limited to the PU-18 motherboard revision and requires a bit of extra hardware and soldering, unlike it's Saturn and Dreamcast installs.

How's it handle 240/480 switching? Does it drop off and need to resync?

I'm looking to build the ultimate PlayStation too! I got a PU-18 motherboard ps1 and the XStation coming in the mail. I'm just waiting for the ps1Digital to be in stock.

Was the title changed from building the definitive playstation or something like that?

I'm interested in adding this to my X-Station equipped model, but.... 1) I had a really hard time with X-Station, now I'm totally scared to open it up again and screwing things up. 2 ) I have it hook it up to a little crt with rgb scart cables. It looks amazing. 3) I think duckstation is amazing on pc, and since I have a memcardpro I can sync memory cards if I want to play some psx on the big screen. If I manage to get some extra money , I might invest on making another ps1 ( I have another compatible one ) with x-station + hdmi + other mods to make the ultimate version... but for now I think this will sit around for a while as a dream.

I got waaaay too excited when I saw that Mega Man Legends loading screen

The Xstation ODE for Ps1 is phenomenal although it’s on compatible with PSU-18 and late 8 motherboards. I’m pretty sure the 18 is compatible with Xstation and ps1 digital

I wonder if tronicfix would be interested in installing those cables and doing upgrades.

X-station is only compatible with a PU7 PU8 or PU18 motherboard. There is the PSIO from Cybdyn sold through Stone Age Gamer. I opted for that since since I didn't want to go looking for specific motherboards.

So I have mine using rgb scart going to a Sony crt and 4k. If I did this then I can't do that. Does this look better then rgb to a ossc

This is absolutely amazing. I have a couple questions. If someone sends u ps to do this for them would? Its amazing brother

I was originally going to criticize the choice of spending a considerable amount of money to play ps1 games on HDMI, considering a PS2 gives you component (close if not equal to HDMI in many examples). And since the ps2 has literally a ps1 inside, it really might be the most convenient solution. But then i remember i spent more than a few dollars on carby, a mod chip, and SD/SD2SP2 for my gamecube, when i could have just used my Wii with retro compatibility over component. So yeah, i respect this. Enjoy your mods people, they are very, very rewarding.
