Water cooling ps4

Go to solution Solved by Jumballi,

Unlike a normal computer, the ps4 is built in a way to maximize liters used. This is done by putting parts that can trap heat close to one another, but they can get away with it because they use efficient or bare minimum of heat producing parts. This leads to only the APU needing cooling and nothing gained if you swap it into a new chasis, as you’d lose connections to parts you’d want it to work like the bluray drive, or forgoing those, but essentially just expanding the cooling on the which itself never got hot enough or can boost enough to take advantage.

TL;DR the ps4 is built where more cooling is a waste

Hay I was thinking last night and was wondering if you could remake the water cooling ps4 video again but go full out by putting it in a pc case and up grade the overall performance of the cooling as my system sounds like a damn jet engine anyway that would be grate to watch since I gonna try to water cool my ps4
