TINY PS5! The smallest PS5 with detachable disc drive! We couldn't settle for the 30% reduction in size from the new PlayStation 5, so we took it further!

We are humbled and completely overwhelmed by the love and support you all have given us on this project. Pushing the boundaries of small form factor computing and design is our passion at NFC, and we are always excited to share our creations with you. We started this project without knowing if it would be successful or even well received, but that’s what makes challenges like the Tiny PS5 impossible to turn down. This project was never intended to be mass produced. It was meant to inspire, and it is a celebration of those that have inspired us. We are honored that you have taken the time to watch its story. Thank you!

Professionally done and with JUST the right amount of shade thrown at Sony with the liquid metal. Very very well done.
Honestly, the entire video has no business going that hard. Great music, great cuts, great build, great narration, great project, great b-roll! As a first-time viewer, I'm thoroughly entertained, well done! This build also shows the kind of PS5 people actually want and with that magnetic controller stand to boot.

A ps5 with this case would probably go for around 1700$. I am sure people would still buy it, but it won't be enough people to make it worth it. The amount of work that goes into making something like this yourself vs . making it to sell it is not comparable. Just all the extra paperwork and testing they would have to do.
We need more people taking things apart like this and marketing kits to shrink and fix what the companies fail to do

@@vdochev - Not for thermals it isn’t. Consoles often have external supplies to keep the size and thermals down. It’s only when chip improvements and cost reductions come along that they’re able to move the PSU internally while keep the console small. The PS5 is so massive because of the internal PSU. Don’t like power bricks? Deal with large consoles until costs come down on more efficient hardware.
The sheer amount of thought and research you put into this is mind blowing. Well done!

It could be possible, in large enough quantities injection molding would be much cheaper than 3D printing. Besides, a lot of the CNC work went into metal plates with fancy writing and logos that are not even visible when assembled.

It would be interesting to see your take on the original xbox (2001). The minification scene back in the day was crazy. Just a tip if you do: The 1.6 motherboards can be tricked into taking just 12v and 5v power. No need for all of the atx rails.

I'm not 100% sure that it has the power... IIRC, it takes like 0.2 amps on 12v (assuming no hard drive) and like 10amps on 5v. I think if i were to re-do my portable version, i would make it a 5v system and just boost to get the 12v instead of it being a 12v system with huge buck converters for the 5v.@@Lettuce2167
@roboman2444
5 ай бұрын
Maybe you can re-do the VRMs to source power from the 12v rail instead. IDK, that sounds like a huge effort compared to just figuring out a way to "get rid" of the 12v power requirement (removing most 12v parts and using a teeny boost converter to supply the rest)
