Playstation 4 external AirFlow Mod

Hi,

the cooling system of the ps4 is good. Not really a need for better cooling, but i notice that the airflow on the back is not the big deal. The internal Fan did the job.
I was thinking about to optimize the airflow putting the hot air out of the console. First tests with some Fans on the back show the system runs much cooler at all.
So i was searching after some part of hardware to build a custom cooling system for the backside. I choose the Intercooler from Nyko. The Fans are really bad, noisy and with like zero air transfer... But good for adding some Fans.
So first part was removing the Fans on the Intercooler. They hold 3 fans each12v.



Another point why i choose the Nyko is that the voltages comes from the power plug of the PS4. So no need for a extra psu.
I plan to add 3 Noiseblocker Fans. They are very quit and have very good airflow ( 1x 60PR2, 2x 40XM2). The Fans will fit perfect on the outer side of the Intercooler.
Just ordered the two XM2...
Not really a big modification, but i think will bring good results. Also thinking about fancontrol.

will be continued...

 

Looking forward to this project. Looks very promising.
