I Paid $300 for This BROKEN PS5, But Why? The seller said it has an HDMI issue but it came in pieces so Iβm wondering if Iβll find other things that are wrong as well. First Iβll have to get it back together to see if it even works at all, then it will be time to tackle the HDMI problem, along with anything else.

Buy it for $200 max
12:20 the amount of times I have had this EXACT conversation with myself.
9:22 if all those screws are "totally necessary" then why are you putting them in at this point? In PC building/repairs we have a "rule" to never screw the sidepanels before system have POSTed.
Hey Steve, wanted to ask what HDMI Switcher do you use?
Yep got the game new for $20 so yeah prob worth $10 without case…π€
Steve your looking great. Thank you for the awesome videos .
No more bad purchases please Steve. You may not even break even with this mate
Could you use k5 pro instead of the Liquid Metal to cool the apu on ps5?
12:24 Is that was Matto aka DarkViperAU? It got me so off guard that I thought I've had a stroke for a moment lol
I see all his videos. They are so relaxing
How much you charge for HDMI ps5 change?
How do you get the liquid metal to spread like that with the black q tip? I tried to do this yesterday and all it did was wipe up the liquid metal. Did you dip the tip in alcohol before spreading around?
How many hours usage before the ps5 needs the liquid metal checked?
He makes repairs look so easy
All over your tip…. Oh matron π – sorry British humour I'm ashamed of my self π
2:40 Free game yo, CoD no less…sweet π
Umm what?
I still have my OG PS5 I got few days after realesed I don't use it alot but when I do get time off work I hammer it for hours never had any issues with I don't understand how people can break them so quickly
Ez fix! kkkk
Thats money. Didnt have to buy parts even.
300 for a broken ps5 is crazy, you got robbed hard.
Brand new they go for 300 for digital only and 399 for disc.
The market for broken consoles, is horrible, at least in this case for a ps5.
I personally rebuild Starter Motors, and I get my starters depending on the year, as low as $20 to $35. They are a lot more expensive if they are from a expensive car like a Porsche.
And since I don't have much overhead since I work in my back yard, I can sell them for cheap since I don't pay people and rebuild them my self.
Hey I have an old 1000 series psp and love for you to do a video with it how do I send it to you ?
Less an hdmi problem and more a lying scamming seller problem lol. Your a brave man steve.
I can imagine seller see this video and say that's it!??!!!!! All needs HD port repair ππππππ
Love to see a new videoβ€π
The thumbnails are getting worse
$300 for a broken PS5 is crazy
Hey! Been watching you for a hot minute, and I've really enjoyed your content! Along with that, I've really wanted to get into working on electronics, both to have certain console I haven't had the luxury of having before, but also to maybe make a little money on the side. What would you say the viability of this is? Is there a career that can be made doing this? What are the pros and cons and risks of taking on this path as a potential career or even side hustle? Many thanks for any feedback you have!
I love the fact that you left the bit where you forgot to connect the power cable, because I as an engineer have never done that. πππ
