PS5

[DrJohnZoidberg]

I decided to do my six-month console clean up, the damn fan connector came off the motherboard! FML!

My life has ended , , , not worth living anymore!

My condolences. That is a very common issue.

How bad is the damage on the board?

Bad man, the connector is completely ripped off the motherboard. Gonna drop it off at the console doc in Bothasig.

Already started saving for that

I'll leave that to the more knowledgeable.

Looks quite easy to do but my confidence is at zero

Mark should be able to sort you out for this

Depending how the connector ripped off it could get quite complicated to fix.

Can't believe he's still going. Used to visit him a lot in my Xbox 360 & Xbox One days.

Ye he's still going. I've got a feeling I'm gonna have to wait a while, he's quite busy.

Mark makes a mint doing the work professionally that nobody else is willing to do.

Even for the official distributor.

I'm back!!!!

So I decided to pimp the PS5 out a bit. The front face plate skins (plain and carbon fiber) are about R20 to R30 and the PlayStation logo stickers go for around R70 for a pack of 12. All on Temu.

The silver face plates I bought of TA about a month back on special for R999

Can you by any chance graph your Nacon;s over at https://hardwaretester.com/gamepad

It would be interesting to compare against others EG:

Xbox Series X

Sadly is could not map out PS5 controllers, just showed the offset

Original Dualsense:


Dualsense after sticks replaced by a repair shop, with "better" modules:


Nacon Revolution Pro 5 (Circular motion reduced via settings in the software - So travel to the edge of the "stick outer ring" is reduced and also with multiple different other settings on the sticks):


Removing all customised settings on the Nacon, so basically mimicking the Dualense from a settings point of view:

R1000 for plates?

I like that matt black centre piece though. Stuff Sony their stupid glossy black finish!

 

[Wil69]

and this doesn't even include the marketing budgets for these games, no wonder Sony decided to push their games to pc.

Hi all,

Anyone know where I can get hold of Logitech G Pro and pedals or any Fanatec Direct Drive bundles in SA for PS5?

G pro is not coming to SA. Fanatec gear can be purchased from Simulator Cave..

FightingCowboy loved SB, basically solidifies it as a must play for me then

MC is at 82.

Pretty good for their first console game.

 

[AlphaJohn]

Yep, looks like I am getting this tomorrow.

Is it true I can't play Fallout 3 (PS3) on PS5 due to backwards compatibility not existing? I must subscribe to PS+ and stream the game?

Cant stream it either, well unless you have a US/UK account + VPN.
