EK Water Blocks (EKWB), which is famous for launching water cooling systems, recently released and pre-sold the PS5-specific water cooling system “EK-QuantumX CoolingStation Monoblock for PS5” on its official website. It is expected to be launched at the end of October and is priced at US$449, approximately HK$3,500. I would like to state up front that using this water cooling system requires complete disassembly of the PS5 console, which will result in loss of product maintenance and certain risks!
The water cooling system covers the entire PCB of PS5 and cools all key components on the front and back of the PCB. The revolutionary water cooling block can cool all key components of PS5, including SoC, voltage module, GDDR6 RAM and NAND flash memory chips. It is made of nickel-plated copper. , the cooling block is connected to the circulation of the water cooling system through two G1/4 interfaces, with an internal volume of 120ml, which can significantly reduce the temperature of the PS5, thereby extending the life of the components and reducing the noise during operation. After modification, the PS5 will need to be powered by two 8-pin PCIe connections and is recommended to be installed in an mATX computer case. The additional modification cost is more expensive than the host.
