This is the very first PS5 Slim in the world. Very successful creation, thickness is only 1.9 cm.
If there’s one criticism all PlayStation 5 owners can make of the console, it’s that it’s rather bulky. Sure, Sony got into the habit of offering a slimmer version a few years after the original model’s launch, but we’d appreciate a slightly more compact machine. Youtuber DIY Perks decided to create his own PS5 Slim. And the result is amazing.
This is the very first PS5 Slim in the world.
Sony usually offers a slim version of its PlayStation a few years after the first model was launched. Unfortunately, for PS5, the moment is yet to come. We’re all waiting for a slimmer PS5 that fits more easily into any piece of furniture. YouTuber DIY Perks probably got tired of waiting and started making his own PS5 Slim. So he disassembled the PlayStation 5 and reassembled the vital components, replacing them where possible with more compact versions in a much smaller package. The result is a machine with a thickness of only 1.9 centimeters.
Very successful creation, thickness is only 1.9 cm.
Filling the current console’s power supply and cooling system with other components wouldn’t result in such a thin machine. So DIY Perks came up with their own cooling system and decided to move the power supply to an external box that can be easily placed behind the TV, out of sight.
Such a project comes with its own problems. And the least we can say is that it was not easy for our YouTuber to achieve his goals, but he succeeded. His PS5 Slim is fully functional. And the cooling system is more efficient than a standard PS5, according to temperature readings taken while testing your creation with Horizon Forbidden West.
Unfortunately, getting this PS5 Slim really isn’t easy. You can discover the entire implementation process in the video below if you like.
