I was a HP Engineer back in the day, and we had a server that I got called out to with 2 dead hard drives. (they were 10,000rpm SAS drives) and it was brand new, tens of thousands of dollars server. I came in and saw the case was off. They said that because it was in a hot room, they took the case lid off to keep it cool. I showed them the warning on the sides of the case that say don't run it with the case off for more than a moment. Then took my temperature probe and showed them the temp of the hdd, it was almost 100 degrees. I left the probe pressed to the hard drives, and closed the lid, and showed them the temperature drop to below 40 degrees in less than a minute, because now all those beefy fans were pulling air past the drives like they should be instead of through the open case. Even after me telling them what happened at head office, HP in their usual style still authorized the replacement of the very expensive drives under warranty.
The fact that you included the failures and frustration on this video made it feel much more real. I obviously haven't bricked a PS5 with any of my kludges but I understand the frustration of "What the hell am I doing wrong? Why doesn't it work?"
I'm so glad you included the first "failure" -- where you overheated the original motherboard. That's what makes your videos so much more enjoyable to watch compared to others. I like to see "normal" people struggle, fail, then succeed at building something like this. Nice work
Liquid metal is not recommended for a pure copper radiator, because... he gradually destroys it. Copper must be plated with nickel. In addition, liquid metal destroys soldering and makes it brittle
You should be incredibly proud of yourself, Matt. Not only did you accomplish a size that no one thought was possible for such a powerful console, but you IMPROVED the thermal temperatures while not sacrificing any performance. I am at a genuine loss for words-- incredible work.

well he cheated with water cooling... the only thing this does is lower temperature and a cooler look, but doesn't actually save space because the radiator and power block probably takes more space. And not to mention how expensive this is for a cooler look.
@@theTH-camHandle It does save space though. I could easily fit those tubs and the brick behind my entertainment system, where as the PS5 itself doesn't fit in most openings standing up and is even too long to fit while laying down.

I'm really glad Matt chose to include the parts where things didnt go as planned. He could've just as easily used the D brand backup and said everything went according to plan.

The self made copper cooling block just literally blew my mind. Bravo to this guy unbelievable skill and talent
I mean, do productive stuff and you'll be fine... the thing is we like to waste it doing either nothing or consume entertainment that other make for us
I agree, this is a very complex and difficult design to pull off. I applaud the amount of time and energy put into this, including the problems, looks amazing.
This is WAYYYY better than Sony's current playstation 5 slim. Edit: I may have started a reply war Edit: I am saying this is better than Sony’s, because it is. I’m not saying that “ohh Sony should make this instead” I know it’d be hard to mass produce and cleaning the water out every once in a while takes work.
I love the fact that after all the work, knowledge needed to create this and the thinking behind it in the first place, you still use a pen pot to do somewhat of a critical job.

sony's design department? lmao did you see the material cost for this build? even if they bought it wholesale, they would never able to sell this product to the public at a reasonable price. they already have brilliant engineers who can whip out multiple designs that are better. it's just a matter of cost.

Thank you for keeping your frustration in the video. I know it's not fun getting to that point. I feel like most people get lost in the fast pace of these videos, and loose sight on the reality and scope of some projects. Sometimes we make mistakes or fail. Not loosing hope and powering through tough moments is something this world needs to see more of. Thank you and keep up the awesome work!
Loving the fact that you kept the mistakes in the video. We're all human and stuff like this happens to all projects, no matter how much we prepare and plan for the perfect scenario. Great work, loved it and subbed.
Who would even prepare and plan for the perfect scenario? All projects are prepared and planned for the worst scenario, and even that often times isn't enough.
As an electrical engineer, this was unimaginably satisfying to watch. Amazing job, not many people will understand how hard it actually is to make something like this happen. It's so brilliant I can't express it enough. I'm still smiling from the joy I got watching this. just Wow
@@raz5247 ofc they don't go "wow that's easy I'm gonna make my own", but what I'm saying is that it's much much harder than it seems. Like the cooler he designed, that probably took him a 3 to 5 full days to complete the design. If not more
I didn't know the sponsor until the end because my TH-cam auto skips sponsors. (I don't spend money really so watching sponsors is pointless for me anyway, it's not like I'm not supporting the creators or anything)
@@dogfag I know but the clicks, interactions and/or purchases from the links in the descriptions decide how much they make in the future sponsorships with that brand.
@@dogfag Yeah, it doesn't, but I like doing it as my own little gesture of respect for channels I really like. And who knows, maybe one of his ads will convince me to buy something one day.
This project is just phenomenal. Not only it is slim and looks cooler but the cpu and memory temperatures also seem better. Really really good water cooling system design. Very innovative.
The channel design reminds me of how smartphone makers have water-cooled smartphone parts, and it's a real flex that the cooling components are worth more than the console itself, ha, especially nice considering that value won't be lost if anything happens to the console, as demonstrated in the board replacement.
This is honestly probably one of the most impressive projects you’ve done, or at least the riskiest. Amazing job, even through the setback. Though I find it funny how the slim version’s total mass is much bigger when you include the external cooling/psu.
This is absolutely incredible, genuinely speechless you must be so proud! I completely understand the feeling that you’ve done so much hard work to have a silly mistake set you back for but your positive attitude to break through all the challenges you faced was amazing to see! A true inspirational vid keep it up

@@Grapefruit5000 both yes and no. I agree this is just moving the chunkyness of PS5 to another place, but it surprise a lot of people that the main component of PS5 is THAT slim, and moving the cooling part to another hidden place is not a bad thing for DIY project like this.
Actually. The cooling principals based on chassis cooling was mainlined by GoPro. They use the outer frame of their cameras as heatsinks. I would imagine some inspiration came from that. Considering beginning content creators are big consumers of GoPro's.
@@DJBillionator Thats amazing, I should check that out as well. Ive never thought a gopro would need cooling like that but the fact that this kills two birds with one stone is just fasinating
@@SummerTime-de3sd I admire the work as well myself. And, realistically. The unit itself should be "smaller". As, high end gaming computers can fit inside a 90's HotWheels PC(Thank You Shank Mods).
I love how he isnt just replacing things with smaller other things but understands how stuff works and replaces things with components in another context
I’m a little split about the concept. No doubt it’s an amazing project, but essentially he just figured a way to pull out the heating and PSU from the console and hang it on the wall😂
for once I witnessed your shortcoming. great idea to include the final moments and struggles. I was literally holding my breath the entire way ever since the cooling block got knocked over. Great, absolutely amazing video!
isn't it strange that the ps5 fried just because of that? modern components are very good at protecting themselves, you can run a modern cpu without heatsink and enter windows and do stuff without it dying. Although very very slowly and it will most likely force shutdown. But frying is uncommon these days. Especially on a stock component.
Also the WORLDS FIRST video by Matt featuring him actually freaking out and getting stressed. Matt, you're an inspiration. Thanks for not cutting that bit out.
As an IT professional and long-time PC enthusiast I was always concerned about your mods' termal performance, then here you go improve on stock while slimming down the main component. I personally couldn't care less about how the power brick and the radiator are external components tucked away somewhere, I'm doing the same thing at home with dual chamber design case mods. While you still may have to worry about galvanic corrosion, this build is so appealing, but at the same time so... daunting, I wouldn't have the courage to tackle it, despite being a person who both solders his own electronics and builds his own enclosures.
The fact that this took anything less than 5+ months is more amazing than everything. To make so little mistakes is just mind-blowing. Your planning and execution had to be so accurate to even limit the issues that you did have
The fact that you only had one major problem when testing this is kinda crazy. I’d expect tons of stuff to go wrong if I tried to modify a PS5 this much. Good job!
This has to be the ballsiest project you've done. The approach to making it air-tight seemed like such a gamble, regardless of how much planning went into it. I was actually surprised that it worked, but it just shows that the 'measure twice, cut once' (or likely, measure 20 times) mantra works - plan it out to the last millimetre.
An artist or a businessman can be genius but not nerdy in traditional sense at the same time i.e most of the time science/maths wiz are considered nerd while artistic genius is charming to most at its best.

The only thing missing is the playstation logo but im honestly shocked this turn out so well. Love seeing people create new things and it working pretty smooth,makes me wanna do it myself lol
I have to say that my biggest takeaway after how amazing this guy is, was how impressed I was by the original design. He managed to super shrink the case size itself but the resulting product actually ends up taking more room to the extent that it almost becomes less practical. Now I understand completely that the entire point was not practicality but merely to shrink the case size but it did make me appreciate the original engineering it took to put all that into a single shippable case for mass consumption. Absolutely brilliant from both him and the original engineers.
@@MaxIronsThird Good? No? I'm not sure how to respond since your comment doesn't seem directed at mine. I wasn't making any statement of preference merely that I admired the engineering in both of them.
Agreed. The original is impressive given the engineering required to make this "slim" version. I travel a lot and watched this video thinking it would make transporting the ps5 so much easier, but no.
Just a tip from a plumber you should make the inlet on part you branched off with a smaller run have a much larger opening than it's outlet. This will force water through on the supply side. It might be good to design it to almost scoop the water out of the supply side so the flowing water has a portion "scooped" into the channel, creating an area of higher pressure that will force it through the seperate channel. Just my two cents. This is an incredible built, well done.
I like how different random trades can come together to advise different stuff. I find it funny lol. Engineers, computer designers, techs. Then bring in the plumber to fix the ps5 hahaha
Due to time constraints I planned to skip through the video and just take in the gist of it, but your presentation convinced me to sit through the whole thing. It blows my mind that there are people like you who can do things like this. Great video
What a trooper. I have plenty of free time but I just skipped to the end. I mean hey no disrespect, I’d pay $1 just to show I care and all. Just knew I wouldn’t want to see it all. But I think the end result is cool.
Due to the lack of time constraints in my life, I planned to watch this video twice and just take it all in, but this comment convinced me to nap through the whole thing. It grows my hand that some people can comment things like that. Good one.
This was an absolute beauty of a video. The humbling climax, and then the interaction with the sponsor (see their boss comment below) made me love this so much. Great job man. And thank you for always showing us the trials and errors as well. You're a gem.
The polished copper actually does look really stylish! It's not terribly common right now, either. Most electronics are black, white, some shade of gray, or maybe chrome.
Same, but a PC could also be small if you remove cooling and power supply. GPU is just a motherboard, cpu is already small, memory would be soldered on. Would probably achieve roughly the same result.
With the temperatures he hits it ends up being quite overkill though. The power block could be somewhat smaller given the results. An incredible solution nonetheless.
I have never watched a youtube video this long without skipping any ads and their sponsor promotion, I don't know why it's feels interesting just to watch this kind of video. This video is different from all the DIY stuff,etc. loved it!
@@CurbkidClothing I read somewhere that skipping ads doesn't change anything but scrubbing through the sponsored part is bad for the TH-camr because some contracts are based on watch time
Amazing-and be sure to have the radiator above the unit. The fluid will diffuse through the tube material and evaporate over time. This will introduce air, which will go to the highest point in the system. If the water channel is the highest point, it will become less effective and noisier.
Technically, it would be better to say "This will create air pockets", as it introduces nothing into the system... but you are right and I do think DIY Perks knows about this... at least, I hope so.
I'm assuming that's why he's designed it to mount to the wall rather than sit on the floor because I can't imagine why else you'd want it mounted to the wall as long as you put the intake and exhaust for the radiator on the sides, or sides for intake/top for exhaust.
Ngl, that slim case looks pretty sick. And knowing that it cools better then the original is icing on the cake. If I were to get a PS5, I'd want to do this.
@@KrooksGaming The copper alone is over $300, water-cooling components are at least another $200, so you'd probably need to pay someone well over $1000 (not including PS5) for the time and expertise needed to pull this off.
There are so many youtubers that have millions of subs and views and spend probably couple of hours on each video but MAN, seeing the amount of work, dedication and passion you put into your builds just blows my mind. The polish of the final videos that you upload is genuinely worthy of you having your own show given how much you challenge yourself in each build. I wish nothing but the best for you brother. May you get all the recognition that you truly deserve. :)
This is amazing work, looks really really good with the copper. How about 4cm? Create a power supply, water cooler block that sits maybe above it that has heaps of copper fins giving it a really awesome aesthetic. It’s actually really impressive because you’ve just used their current hardware whereas theyd probably redesign everything to make it slimmer, so kudos! 👏🏼
Thank you for showing the problems you faced at the end. Too many content creators try to show a perfect process which is discouraging for people. Anyone who has tried to do things themselves will all attest to the fact that things will go wrong but it’s all a learning process.
I'm building this one. I already have almost everything I need for this project, except for the copper sheets/plates, and I just ordered those. Also I have an old glass Sea Monkey tank, that looks like an antique tube TV, which I'm going to use as the reservoir. (No actual sea monkeys will be harmed in the process, the tank will only contain distilled water.) Wish me luck. 😃
This is exactly how projects go. There will be a major setback and you can either give up, or push through. With 10M+ views, I think D-brand got their money's worth
This actually looks attractive and slim! Wow. Guy probably did a better job than Sony will. We'll probably get another bland glossy black and white plastic box priced at an extra $250 from the base unit
I don't think he knows how big this is as an achievement, yet. This video is going to spread through every gaming news website there is, within a month.

Watched this again today!!!! and loving the work especially that you didnt edit out the mistake, its not all rosy when doing any project. Kudos!!!!!! you have my respect
Probably not. Putting something like this together and doing it in such a way that ensures long term usage are two different things. I have no doubt Sony engineers could slap this together too but given the heat generation how long will it actually last? You expect a console to last for years and I have my doubts that this would.
I can't believe I sit here and watch 100% of this video and actually attain all the knowledge here. Good thing I focus in Physics back in schooldays. And can't fathom the amount of time to do the recording/editing let alone the Engineering of this. We viewers are so blessed with Free Contents like this on TH-cam. Thank you, sir... DIY Perks! Now I wonder it is already so hard to make 1 Product manually. How do people come up with a solution to make millions of it... I'm so proud of human species guys...
I highly recommend using solder paste for applications such as matting the two cover plates. It can ve applied more evenly, cleans up well, and will flash over quick in the oven.
I was looking for this comment before I said the same thing. Now that he has his oven, he can get into reflow soldering (and maybe as a future project build a proper temperature controller to get a reasonable reflow temperature curve).
This arc of this story is insane. Had me on the edge of my seat like five different times. I've experienced joy, sorrow, frustration, and excitement all in 30 mins. Immaculate.
I felt the roller coaster of emotions in my bones, with this one. Built a water cooled PC, bought the blocks, but made the case, all the cabling, etc... so many points of no return followed by moments where you hold your breath... and the shear joy with the thoughts of impending doom possibly lurking in the shadows. Fun times. Keep them coming.
I must say Matt this DIY build was how I experience my DIY builds, THINGS GO WRONG SOMETIMES😁 You are a brilliant engineer no doubt. For you to share with us your most vulnerable moments when things where not going right, is quite humbling. 😊Thank you for sharing.

@@stellviahohenheim most people aren’t moving their console around except maybe once or twice a year
The channel design reminds me of how smartphone makers have water-cooled smartphone parts, and it's a real flex that the cooling components are worth more than the console itself, ha, especially nice considering that value won't be lost if anything happens to the console, as demonstrated in the board replacement.
This is honestly probably one of the most impressive projects you’ve done, or at least the riskiest. Amazing job, even through the setback.
Though I find it funny how the slim version’s total mass is much bigger when you include the external cooling/psu.
I'd say the total bulk volume and weight of all the elements combined is a dealbreaker. Plus such PSU can get very noisy!

The thoughts that had gone into this build is absolutely mad considering you've reconstructed a cooling block to also work as a case is mind boggling.
Actually. The cooling principals based on chassis cooling was mainlined by GoPro. They use the outer frame of their cameras as heatsinks. I would imagine some inspiration came from that. Considering beginning content creators are big consumers of GoPro's.

Even the greatest people make shortcomings and he humbly adds it to the scene since life is not always picture perfect.
isn't it strange that the ps5 fried just because of that? modern components are very good at protecting themselves, you can run a modern cpu without heatsink and enter windows and do stuff without it dying. Although very very slowly and it will most likely force shutdown. But frying is uncommon these days. Especially on a stock component.

As an IT professional and long-time PC enthusiast I was always concerned about your mods' termal performance, then here you go improve on stock while slimming down the main component. I personally couldn't care less about how the power brick and the radiator are external components tucked away somewhere, I'm doing the same thing at home with dual chamber design case mods.

I have to say that my biggest takeaway after how amazing this guy is, was how impressed I was by the original design. He managed to super shrink the case size itself but the resulting product actually ends up taking more room to the extent that it almost becomes less practical. Now I understand completely that the entire point was not practicality but merely to shrink the case size but it did make me appreciate the original engineering it took to put all that into a single shippable case for mass consumption. Absolutely brilliant from both him and the original engineers.

Agreed. The original is impressive given the engineering required to make this "slim" version.
I travel a lot and watched this video thinking it would make transporting the ps5 so much easier, but no.
Super ambitious. I knew heat was gonna be a problem as soon as i saw the size
Just a tip from a plumber you should make the inlet on part you branched off with a smaller run have a much larger opening than it's outlet. This will force water through on the supply side. It might be good to design it to almost scoop the water out of the supply side so the flowing water has a portion "scooped" into the channel, creating an area of higher pressure that will force it through the seperate channel. Just my two cents. This is an incredible built, well done.

Same, but a PC could also be small if you remove cooling and power supply. GPU is just a motherboard, cpu is already small, memory would be soldered on. Would probably achieve roughly the same result.
With the temperatures he hits it ends up being quite overkill though. The power block could be somewhat smaller given the results. An incredible solution nonetheless.

Technically, it would be better to say "This will create air pockets", as it introduces nothing into the system... but you are right and I do think DIY Perks knows about this... at least, I hope so.
I'm assuming that's why he's designed it to mount to the wall rather than sit on the floor because I can't imagine why else you'd want it mounted to the wall as long as you put the intake and exhaust for the radiator on the sides, or sides for intake/top for exhaust.

This is amazing work, looks really really good with the copper. How about 4cm? Create a power supply, water cooler block that sits maybe above it that has heaps of copper fins giving it a really awesome aesthetic.

I know the feeling of bricking something right near project completion. Good thing you had a spare. Great content as always :)
All this work deserves 100m views
This was … one of the “coolest” videos I’ve seen on TH-cam, ever. I was glued to my phone the entire time.
I was expecting another pun in your user name lol (or something using the word 'pun' itself lol)
Was "glued" also intended to have quotation marks, to indicate another pun,
Or am I doing too much in my head? Lol
@@gtimes03 Crazy because I was thinking the same thing lmao
Same!
The way you sandwiched 3 copper sheets for the water cooling was genius.
Expensive though 😂
@@spencerlorrigan Yea, this PS5 would most like be 700+
@@official_pol2198 700?700 is a new one on original form...this would be atleast 2k
@@spencerlorriganknowing Sony's greed, they'd sell this "ps5 ultra slim" for $5000+
Watched this again today!!!! and loving the work especially that you didnt edit out the mistake, its not all rosy when doing any project. Kudos!!!!!! you have my respect
Probably not. Putting something like this together and doing it in such a way that ensures long term usage are two different things. I have no doubt Sony engineers could slap this together too but given the heat generation how long will it actually last? You expect a console to last for years and I have my doubts that this would.
Correct always take into consideration longevity usage etc. this will probably work but would fault within a month or sooner
I’ll just keep my ps5 the way it is and out of sight behind my Vizio 80” tv
I can't believe I sit here and watch 100% of this video and actually attain all the knowledge here. Good thing I focus in Physics back in schooldays.
And can't fathom the amount of time to do the recording/editing let alone the Engineering of this. We viewers are so blessed with Free Contents like this on TH-cam. Thank you, sir... DIY Perks!
Now I wonder it is already so hard to make 1 Product manually. How do people come up with a solution to make millions of it... I'm so proud of human species guys...
Finally getting it to work properly after going through those issues must have been one of the best feelings ever. Amazing job & video!
I highly recommend using solder paste for applications such as matting the two cover plates. It can ve applied more evenly, cleans up well, and will flash over quick in the oven.
Absolutely! It's like reflowing a giant surface mount component. I've used a toaster oven just like this for that purpose, too.
I was looking for this comment before I said the same thing. Now that he has his oven, he can get into reflow soldering (and maybe as a future project build a proper temperature controller to get a reasonable reflow temperature curve).
This arc of this story is insane. Had me on the edge of my seat like five different times. I've experienced joy, sorrow, frustration, and excitement all in 30 mins. Immaculate.
Ah yes, my mistake
@Lochlan McBride ever heard of rounding numbers

I loved watching this in mid 2021. Enjoyed every second of it. Very informative and entertaining. Good work!!
Honestly, it's just nice to see Theon having done well for himself.
is air tight tighter then water tight?
😂😂😂😂😂😂🤘
right? I was thinking the exact same thing that this guy looked like Theon GreyJoy haha
Thought I was the only one that noticed 😂
Fucking hell hahahahaha
I felt the roller coaster of emotions in my bones, with this one. Built a water cooled PC, bought the blocks, but made the case, all the cabling, etc... so many points of no return followed by moments where you hold your breath... and the shear joy with the thoughts of impending doom possibly lurking in the shadows. Fun times. Keep them coming.
Bro, you good?
@@boppin3898 my PC is up and running after scrapping hard pipe for soft tubing, so yeah. I'm good.
...Yeah, this is why I don't bother with liquid cooling
I must say Matt this DIY build was how I experience my DIY builds, THINGS GO WRONG SOMETIMES😁 You are a brilliant engineer no doubt. For you to share with us your most vulnerable moments when things where not going right, is quite humbling. 😊Thank you for sharing.
I got some dark plates.. excited for the simple upgrade. Nice work on the slim build too.. hopefully it adds some inspiration for an official slim PS5 that is at least half as "cool". :D
