I guess the bottom one is the Base devkit since I think I saw this before Pro was ever a thing.. :)

V has come to (PS5 dev kit design?)

Ding ding ding! Bottom one is a base dev kit, top one is a pro.
People joke about their PS4's being jet engines but they are structurally not suitable to take flight.
This design corrects that.
It might just be that it's quite early here and I'm barely awake, but this made me laugh. You get the highly sought after Darth Smurf X "Post of the Day" Award.
The developer who leaked the picture of the PS5 Dev Kit retweeted a Kevin Smith tweet lambasting Sony for not agreeing to give Disney the Spider-man deal they wanted. Pure speculation, but could this have been motivation to break his employer's NDA with Sony?
I hope it's real so bad. I'm imagining it's completely silent with like an air bubble around it
Oh, cool. I assume it looks that odd to be stackable? With the 2 little bumps on the top as well.
Any chance these are like PS Now farm machines? Or even a PS Now upgrade? High ventilation and unattractive athestics makes me wonder if this is a machine to be kept behind the scenes.
Do we even know what the PS Now servers look like? It's gotta be more than a bunch of PS4's stitting on top of each other right?

Verbally admonished perhaps but firing makes zero sense given he neither leaked the patent nor divulge specs. Plus it's a known fact many developers already have had their hands on next gen consoles' devkit for a while now.
Yeah since you want to be able to put them into a rack. They come (or used to come) with screws and rails.
They name on the o
I'd imagine that elaborate custom casing like that for a data center is a waste of money. Also, data centers are often cooled, so I don't think you'd actually have that much internal cooling.

Yea, sorry I'm referring to not-final dev kits, I'm assuming the PS5 kit design is not final at this point - seems a bit early for that.
It still seems overly designed for something like this when you see early designs that are fairly featureless like this: https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/...ent-kit-sells-for-thousands-of-pounds-on-ebay and this: https://nintendotoday.com/this-is-the-original-wii-dev-kit-that-shipped-to-developers-10-years-ago/
I've actually never seen that model before. The ones we had where I worked back then looked very different.You sure?
A friend of mine had a debug unit which just looked like a standard PS2.
Tweet unavailable.
Guess he really wasn't supposed to just blurt it out like that.
If the final PS5 deisgn ends up looking like this one, I don't know how much dust the console can sustain tbh.
Btw, do you remember the suppsoed devkit that was leaked before with the supposed DS5? It looks very different than this one.XD

The one who made it admitted it was fake and released a video showing how he faked it iirc.If the final PS5 deisgn ends up looking like this one, I don't know how much dust the console can sustain tbh.

Really? I missed it. Do you remember the video and post it please?
That might be a test kit (if it says "TEST" instead of "PS2," that's what it is). Test kits are a different class of device--usually much closer to the production model in spec but able to run unsigned code for testing.
Yeah. Damn, lol.
Yep. And there was an even older devkit before release, which was an even uglier (but smaller) black plastic box that didn't even have proper power and reset buttons, just switches on the motherboard exposed on a cutout and covered by a transparent plastic layer :P
It doesn't actually need that much cooling. The PS5 doesn't just cool itself, it also cools the environment. That's right, the PS5 is Sony's secret plan to save the world from global warming.
Absolutely. I heard Sony had help from Elon Musk in designing it.
I personally hate that type of bulky testosterone heavy design. I like my consoles slick and flat.
It's the dev kit, and dev kits have different requirements than the actual final hardware.
You're basically guaranteed that the final system will look different.
The developer kit image was not leaked, it is a patented design discovered by a Brizilian tech website. You can find it through: gru.inpi.gov.br
