Great job! I have done a fair amount of soldering work and I felt a certain sweaty fear watching a few parts of this installation. Your tutorial was superb.
Well you need to experience being a kid and coming home from school on a hot summer afternoon and booting up the PS1. This feeling cannot be replicated.
Tacking in the center really helps because the cable is not perfectly flat. As the video shows, you want to hold it down as you work your way out, which will push the slack out. If you tack the ends and work your way toward the center then you will be pushing the vertical slack together into a tighter and tighter arch that will never go flat in the middle. Releasing that slack by reflowing connections along the way to one edge means shifting all of that vertical slack into horizontal alignment, which is likely to cause misalignment if your connections were already aligned before reflowing. The reason this isn’t a problem when starting from the middle and working out is because any alignment shift from flattening the cable is effectively halved by being distributed equally in opposite directions.
Definitely going to have to give this a shot. I love how you can see the heat from the iron make its way back to the body of the GPU and cause little spots of flux to flare up.
The serial port is used for the ps link cable that is used for the command and conquer series of games such as red alert as well as 50 other US game titles. If you want to be able to use the multi player aspect of some of these games which require not only the serial port but the link cable and a second copy of the game and a second ps1 or the use of the second disk that was common in some of the games like the command and conquer series of games that had an allies and an axis disk.
Very cool, I didn’t know as much about the serial port. I know that Dan Kunz has a plan to maintain serial port functions with the PS1DIGITAL, but it is not released yet
This was so helpful, thank you! I didn't even realize there was that test screen with the hearts. I made some solder bridges and somehow overlooked that section in the document, so this helps a ton!
Thanks! I’m glad that this video was helpful. I definitely thought it would be easier to demonstrate how the test screen works - it’s very helpful for verifying that the install was successful and it also helps you narrow things down if there is a problem
Cool I was looking for OG PS1 mods the other night :D I have a few of them. I'd probably use one again if I made it unique. Got cards and controllers and stuff. Know any easy points I can come in on off the average board for a simple LED mod? Edit: Oh man I do know one thing- I heard there are other plug mods and uses for that old serial port... stuff for simple programs besides games and whatnot. Is putting something like this in with a freshly cut new hole for the hdmi port possible?
I highly recommend bushido blade 1 and 2 as well as Evil Zone. Crash Bandicoot and Spyro are also staples. Wipeout, speed punks and Crash Team Racing are excellent racing games. So many more I can list.
Voaltar drag soldered the GPU. I know he's a soldering master, but it didn't seem like drag soldering was an issue on it as long as you have adequate skill and magnification.
Yes you can do it that way, but if it’s your first time I think it’s more dangerous to attempt drag soldering. I have repaired several failed install attempts where someone tried to drag solder and they end up moving several pins
yeah, honestly drag soldering with proper flux and solder would be ideal, maybe it's partially the camera but this dude's joints often look cold and uneven (for a few reasons it seems). good video for the general install process, definitely not for the soldering...
Questions about a different video: I saw your modding video for the colecovision I was wondering how much it would cost for you to do the mid? I have the kit already
This was a really interesting video! I don’t have a lot of embedded electronics knowledge and I’ve never done any soldering. Where did you learn how to do all this? Did you start by doing game console modding?
I started learning how to solder in graduate school. I’m a scientist (not an engineer though), and at times I needed to make some small DIY projects in the lab. Eventually I took my very basic soldering skills and applied it to video games, fixing my childhood Game Boy. And from there I kept learning more and trying progressively challenging projects
There are good online resources for information on electronics like Adafruit and Element14, and you can start with simple projects and develop your skills
If you dont know the ps1 library, youre basically missed the golden age of games! Orchestral music, art, creativity, dialogues that are worth to be in the best books, etc etc...

@@attilahavasi6987 Yeah you're right, tit does. On another note, i did say the ps2 era is the golden age for most people, but actually for me it was the PS3 that gave me the most memories.

I just want to say I am enjoying you videos on your channel it is very intuitive and informative. however I am get a nes top loader shipped to me i was wondering do you do hdmi on this particular console?
Thanks, glad you’re enjoying the videos! There is a hdmi modification for the NES called the hi def NES, but unfortunately it is no longer being manufactured. I think your best bet for that Toploader is to have an RGB mod installed. That’s something I can do
Surprising you mention to not drag-solder the wide flat cable. Voultar shows how he drag solders it perfectly in his video. I actually like your technique going up and down with the tiny tip. I wanna try this mod myself, but i am only experienced with soldering bigger points, i did the McWill mod twice on a Game Gear. It works but i was kinda messy…
Yeah, it is certainly possible to drag solder, but I think few people have the skill or tools to do it. I have repaired several of these installations where people attempted to drag solder and ended up bending pins together.
I have it set to 350 Celsius which seems to work well. I don’t spend too much time on the cable so that minimizes the chances of damaging the flex cable
Maybe a strange question but wouldn't it be easier to use a emulator on pc or will that give a different output? I remember buying my PSX and how amazing all the games looked back in the days. I still have my Ps2 (I sold the PSX when the Ps2 came out ) I love your video's but I wouldn't start a project like this one. I thought it was already challenging enough to install the mod chip and my eyes are not the same as they were 20 years ago ...
You are right, it’s definitely easier to play these games on an emulator. Depending on the emulator, it might look or behave differently than original hardware. This modification is definitely a challenging one, and without my microscope there’s no way I could do it! Thanks for watching and I’m glad you’re enjoying the videos!
What about heating up the CPU? The plate over the CPU is not just located there, it removes heat from it. Will nothing happen to the loop that lies on the CPU. Can it melt and fail?
My understanding is that this mod doesn’t affect contact between the rf shield and the CPU. Dan Kunz (the developer of this project) did test the temperature of the new and old components and it is supposed to be safe even under continuous use
32:50 While testing in the game 'Driver' intro fmv, R7/G7 G0/B0 will swap hearts to x's and back for a millisecond. this repeats for 3 times during the fmv. I messed around ingame for about a hour with no issues. Is this normal behavior or should the hearts absolutely stay that way?
That's normal - the test resets itself and that's why you will briefly see x's immediately followed by hearts. It's only a problem if one connection always stays as an X
This is really cool and impressive, but I just can't get myself to play ps1 games without them looking exactly as they did when I played them the first time. Maybe I'm a purist. Still, this is pretty amazing.
I can totally understand that sentiment as well. The nice thing about this modification is that it doesn’t remove those older video modes so you can experience the PS one the original way or the modern way with HDMI
Do you know why the gpu flex is designed like the last 5 pins are NC from right side. It means Not Connected? I’m asking, because I messed up my first try and the last 3 pins broke when I tried to desolder it. Any suggestion to solve it?
NC means not connected, but I also don’t know if those pins are not connected on the GPU as well. It may work but obviously you need to check all the other connections and make sure that they are good
@@LIRetroGaming Ah thanks for the reply! I actually checked and found it, and was going to edit my reply. When installing the gpu flex cable I damaged the farthest left pad, the copper pad lifted off the board, and the pad came off the ribbon cable. I think it's still okay since they don't seem to do anything except for alignment. About to check for shorts now. Thanks again!
@@LIRetroGaming Ughhhh, I started it up and got analog audio, no. video. Then I tried to reflow the gpu flex and forgot to check for shorts; there was one, and now its not turning on even after the short went away. ugh
man, I would love to attempt this mod. However after realizing it cost $160.00 I have quickly become demotivated. I'm skeptical PS1Digital will preform better than a backwards compatible or modded PS3 and certainly lacks the utility of one. I understand the appeal of being able to use your older consoles again on modern hardware but in my opinion emulation seems to be the future of retro gaming. Fantastic work on the video I look forward to watching more.
Thanks so much, I'm glad that you enjoyed the video! It's true, the parts are costly and the install is a challenge. I think that it does perform a little better than a PS3 - but not by a lot.

Check out the troubleshooting section and Dan outlines a few things you can do to narrow down where the problem is. I would definitely use a multimeter and test continuity between all the pads and the pins. Also test between pins to see if there are any shorts
I've checked each pins and everything are fine. The LED light is ok now. But there's no display on the TV. is it because my tv doesn't support the resolution?
That’s entirely possible. Make sure you have some thing that can handle 1080 P and other lower resolutions as well. A steady light is a good sign, that’s what it’s supposed to do
man, all good, but show some video output that is better than original. You spend so much time on modding ps1 for 200 bucks for what? at the end results looks exactely like your stock ps1. can you do comparison please, I am kind of disappointed
Sorry for that, a comparison would have been a good thing to demonstrate. Check out retroRGB and digital foundry: both channels made videos that are all about the comparisons
Bravo to all the brilliant minds keeping this niche alive.

Ps1 absolutely one of my favorite consoles. Use to copy the disk back in late 90's. And still have those games to this day
