PS5, Switch 2 and Xbox Series X in one device. She did it
PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and Nintendo Switch 2 are the dream of many gamers. However, having them all is quite problematic. It’s not only about the price, but also the space it takes up. It may be difficult to place three consoles next to a monitor or TV. The solution comes from Chinese modder 小宁子 XNZ, who managed to enclose all these devices in one housing.
PS5, XSX and NS2 in one
XNZ came up with quite an interesting idea. She stated that “Ningtendo PXBOX 5”, as she called her project, would be perfect for a triangular housing, specifically a prism with a triangular base. To do this, she took apart the console. She placed the components of each of them in a separate side (except for Switch 2, which remained partially in its housing). In addition, it developed a cooling system that was located inside and from the bottom at the same time cooling each console.
However, the costs of CNC turned out to be too high. Therefore, XNZ decided to use the well-known, ancient and still used in China lost-wax casting technique. This allowed her to create complex shapes without incurring high costs. In this way, she created heat sinks that later required sanding, but that was the least of the problems.
The whole thing is powered by a single 250 W GaN power supplyafter all, the consoles will not be running at the same time, so this will be enough to power each of them. There were also fans. Here, the Chinese woman used the Phantkes T30 120 mm model. Finally, she added a few decorative elements and this is how the device was created.
Switching between playing Donkey Kong Bananza on Switch 2 and Ghost of Yotei on PlayStation 5 takes just 3 seconds. However, you must remember to put the consoles to sleep earlier, because if two of them work at the same time, it will be too much load on the power supply.
