PlayStation 5 New Model to Sport 5nm APU, No Liquid Metal Cooling – Rumor
The rumored new PlayStation 5 model is set to run much cooler than the current models and won't require liquid metal cooling, according to rumors circulating online.
Zuby_Tech, who shared videos of Sony's Project Q handheld last week, revealed that the new hardware revision, the CFI-1300 series, will sport a 5nm APU which shouldn't produce as much heat as the 7nm of the launch models, and the 6nm of the CFI-1202 series. As such, the console will not feature liquid metal cooling.

While we have to take what was revealed about the new PlayStation 5 model with a grain of salt, the information sounds believable, considering what we currently know about the yet-to-be-announced hardware revision. As Sony improved efficiency with the CFI-1202 models, it makes sense to bring things a step further with the new model, which the Japanese company will supposedly market as an improved model. The new console is rumored to be compatible with a detachable disc drive and won't be much smaller than the current models.
According to recent court documents, this new PlayStation 5 model will release later this year for the price of the Digital Edition. We will keep you updated on the matter as soon as more come in on it, so stay tuned for all the latest news.
