That's one of the reasons I don't want a PS5 right away. Sony launch consoles always seem to have some form of widespread problem. Everyone else can test it, I'll pick one up in a few years when it and the games are cheaper if it works out okay. Others include the current lack of games, that it's not even ready yet because the system software doesn't even support expandable storage, the always on mic that's probably always recording and selling the recordings to third parties, a lack of "play anywhere" functionality like Xbox and PC have (yes Microsoft owns Windows, but Sony could partner with an existing store like Steam or make their own store/launcher), and annoyance at being expected to buy all new controllers and accessories because of greed.

Yeah. The behavior Steve described at the end suggests the fan control in the PS5 bios has been tweaked to work specifically with the characteristics of liquid metal. Thermal paste differs from that, so the cooling system works incorrectly by revving up and slowing down continuously. It's actually quite interesting how it's so particular about it. The hysteresis might be quite narrow. I guess all this makes sense in the big picture of manufacturing millions of consoles and thus needing to optimise everything.

@@trappz_io2620 ​ Thermal paste transfers heat less efficiently so the heatsink doesn't get as hot because more heat is staying in the GPU which is not good. With the liquid metal it transfers heat way better so more of the heat from the GPU goes to the heatsink where the fan can blow it out the back resulting in a higher temp than the thermal paste. I hope that helps I'm not the greatest at explaining things lol.

@iXPilot
@iXPilot 3 года назад
​@@LeBrulox I have zero knowledge in electronics. Isn't it possible to check how much power the cooler consumes by setting some sensor before the VCC wire? Or just check if the wires in the port are terminated correctly (back in the days, I was impressed that some of PC motherboards [the Realtek-based ones?] could tell if there's a mini-jack connected to audio output or not)?
@LeBrulox
@LeBrulox 3 года назад
@@iXPilot Yes, it's possible and some chips have that capability but the reason why you don't see this implemented very often is because the temperature sensors inside the console already give you the indirect information regarding the state of the fan, i.e, if it is turned on or not, and consoles specifically have A LOT of those sensors so you can almost precisely point out which parts are overheating. Also, many chips come with temperature sensors so it's more convenient to work with them since the beginning

Kinda interesting. However the covers around the chips I would assume are there to protect the board against liquid metal leakage. These gaskets would be acting as an insulator and not needed for thermal paste. I assume you are using AS5 thermal paste, whilst not a bad one, it's not the greatest. Perhaps a premium paste in comparison with the gaskets off would be more like a real world test, especially as the price point of liquid metal is high.

You should compare the stock metal liquid vs the best one "conductonaut" have almost the double of thermal performance compared to the second best 40 vs 79 W/mK usually ps like xbox use the cheapset thermal compound, is like when you change the crappy ps4 metal pastel with like thermalright tf-x.. the difference is huge

I don't know if this counts but the PS5 can play PS4 games, so I guess technically it could be a PS4 and a PS5 when you think about it. it might be called a PS5 but it also plays PS4 games so in a way I would think that you could say it's part PS4 I just hope by the time I can get one they don't take backwards compatibility out for PS4 by the way like they did with the PS3 slim and the super slim for PS2 games the original PS3 could play PS2 games but the PS3 slim and super slim couldn't and the only way you could get them to play PS2 games is by moding them all three of them can play PS1 games though as far as I know just not all of them can play PS2 games I hope they don't do that to the PS5 where they take out PS4 backwards compatibility cuz I still have PS4 discs that I play on my PS4 and if I get a PS5 I'm going to get a disc version so I can play the PS4 games that I have and even still I'll keep my PS4 just in case they do take that backwards compatibility away

@Damaniel3 3 года назад
Liquid metal usually only gets you a couple degrees lower temps under load than the best thermal pastes do. They make more sense when you have a closed system and automated hardware to do the application (like Sony does), but they make far less sense for the average computer enthusiast when you consider the dangers of applying it and the way it interacts with heatsinks over time. If anything, I'm actually concerned how PS5s will perform a few years down the road as the heatsinks inevitably absorb small amounts of the liquid metal just from the contact. I don't know if we'll get Xbox 360 RROD-levels of failure, but I expect to see increasing numbers of failures over time.
