Take everything I say with a pinch of salt, I might be wrong and it's a very *expensive* way to learn!
@diyperks @beer for your monitor control board, I see that in the original video a usb-c cord was used to power the board. Did you use the same connection? If so where did you connect it to power the board and monitor? If a USB-c was not used, how did you combine your 12v sources to safely power everything? Figuring out the power source for my monitor and control board is the last component I need to finish the prep work for my Xbox version of this.
@pete I used a USB C power only cable, and soldered the wires directly to the main motherboard's positive/negative terminals. Later on I ended up using the original PS5 fan's 12v as input to both the screen and split to power the fans (with a buck converter) and that worked well.
For those asking I made a part list!

@beer can you make a video step by step how you are doing it
or would you sell your ps5
because I really want one but Im not sure i can do it
@beer hey ! How can i contact you for questions about how to make the build ?
@beer Waow, just waow! I was ready to dug myself into a rabbit hole to make this work. But as my username indicated I am retarded at DIY-things.
Would really appreciate if you could share both list and .STL files and just any other useful tips besides, what is stated in this post. Have Bambulab P2S coming anytime now, so looking forward to fiddling around. Feel free to DM me, so I can get started ASAP. Will let you guys know how many PS5 it took me to make one successfully .. LOL.
Sorry, didn't see the page 2 before commenting. Just seen the parts list, assume it is updated. Tips & tricks are still welcome though 😀
