Thank you so much for this guide! It was very helpful!
Deine Schrauben großen machen gar kein Sinn du hast mehr verschiedene Schrauben als es gibt
My PS4 “Slim” is quite different internally than the one shown. But regardless, this guide is an excellent resource for us diy’ers. And don’t forget any parts when reassembling, like I did. Took four tries to get everything back where it belonged. And man, was it dusty in there! Regular cleaniings are a must.
My ps4 slim is different it has some extra parts, now I don’t know how to put it back, hahahahahhahaha
This guide gets you 90% of the way there. Some really important pieces are missing though, primarily:
- How you dont need to unplug the power supply cable from the motherboard, you can just unhook it from the plastic clips on the case.
- It never mentions cleaning the old Thermal Paste off the heatsink + cpu and replacing with a new dab.
Both of these are essential for a proper tear-down. If you dont replace the thermal paste, your PS4 is guaranteed to break down irreparably in the future. I had to know or discover them for myself. Please, please update this guide with that info.
