Niceeeeee

Nice? Wtf with the inside, it looks so cheap and basic. It really is a small PC with a unique case that makes it "Xbox One" you could put this stuff inside a computer case because of how basic it is.

The inside of the PS4 looks amazingly engineered and built to perfection. Xbox One is some parts I got from Newegg slabbed together. I don't understand.

I'm not saying the console is bad at all, just how the inside doesn't look like a unique device. I just like how the PS4s inside looks like something precisely crafted for the case.

An $18,000 Agilent E4407b spectrum analyser just looks like any other cheap and basic motherboard to most people.

Are you telling me that a PS4 is better engineered than that because it looks prettier?

guys check out the PS4 teardown it has a very small fan inside. This must be why the console is experiencing overheating problems. Maybe not reliable in the long term.

Nope the console isn't having any heating problems. Its just that Sony engineers are much better than Microsoft's. Wasn't there a report where they said that the Xbox One runs hotter than the PS4?

ps4 will be just fine with its small fan, hints thats what she said. the ps3 slimy gets hotter then the ps4. they dont yellow light alot. so ps4 will be fine. #4

[Razuel]

Question should be is how have the modifications to the APU affected how hot the chip gets? ESRam, etc.. They seem overly cautious.

[strickers]

A custom designed fan for PS4 and big heat sinks. Temp lower than XB1.

I'm looking forward to reading it once they finish! Very interesting... lovely looking internals. And my god, look at that fan!

[SL1M DADDY]

As far as mobos go it's pretty clean. Not that I get excited when I look at mobos... Just say'in.

As long as it doesnt break im fine, will get my Xbox on Summer just in time for Halo 5 and TitanFall.

Lots of chokes and filtering, very nice.

Immaculate traces especially on the CPU too, no auto trace in sight! Both One and PS4 are manually traced and its a good sign.

Doesn't look too dissimilar to that of opening the 360
