New PS5 model may run hotter thanks to smaller heatsink

A new video shows how Sony was able to trim the weight.

YouTuber Austin Evansuploaded a video Saturday showing the insides of the new model PS5 and the launch console.

He found that the heatsink is smaller, lighter and has fewer vents than the older version.

The second difference in the new model is the base screw.

Launch PS5s had a screw that required the use of a screwdriver, coin or even a fingernail.

The new version has a bigger screw with a grip so it can be screwed in by hand.
