Overview[edit | edit source]

This page is currently work-in-progress. (November 2023)

A/A+ chassis heatsink[edit | edit source]

B/B' chassis heatsink[edit | edit source]

  • On B-chassis, a single thermal pad for EE, GS and RDRAM is used. On B'-chassis, a thermal pad for EE and RDRAM and a separate thermal pad for GS are used.
    • This is because of the different heights of the GS variants used in these chassis (CXD2944GB in B-chassis and CXD2934GB in B'-chassis), which require thermal pads with a different height
  • This heatsink is unique in that it also cools the DSP via an additional thermal pad. DSP is not cooled in most chassis types.
  • Has a heatpipe

C/C' chassis heatsink[edit | edit source]

  • On C-chassis, a single thermal pad for EE, GS and RDRAM is used. On C'-chassis, a thermal pad for EE and RDRAM and a separate thermal pad for GS are used.
    • This is because of the different heights of the GS variants used in these chassis (CXD2944GB in C-chassis and CXD2934GB in C'-chassis), which require thermal pads with a different height
  • Has no heatpipe, but larger fin area (compared to B/B' chassis)

AB-chassis heatsink[edit | edit source]

D/D' chassis heatsink[edit | edit source]

  • On D-chassis, a single thermal pad for EE, GS and RDRAM is used. On D'-chassis, a thermal pad for EE and RDRAM and a separate thermal pad for GS are used.
    • This is because of the different heights of the GS variants used in these chassis (CXD2944GB in D-chassis and CXD2934GB in D'-chassis), which require thermal pads with a different height

K-chassis heatsink (separate EE and GS)[edit | edit source]

K-chassis heatsink (combined EE+GS)[edit | edit source]

L-chassis heatsink (separate EE and GS)[edit | edit source]

L-chassis heatsink (combined EE+GS)[edit | edit source]

M-chassis heatsink[edit | edit source]

N-chassis heatsink[edit | edit source]

P-chassis heatsink[edit | edit source]

R-chassis heatsink (large shield type)[edit | edit source]

Goes with the GH-071 board

  • Has no cooling fins anymore; only the shield itself acts as heatsink

R-chassis heatsink (small shield type)[edit | edit source]

Goes with the GH-072 board and is also used in the Sony BRAVIA KDL22PX300

  • Has no cooling fins anymore; only the shield itself acts as heatsink

PSX heatsink[edit | edit source]
