Heatsink overview
- In PS3 2000 series heatsinks (20xx, 21xx, 25xx) there is no reference of the manufacturer neither the model, there is only 2 "serial numbers", one is for the "metal cooling block" and the other for the "plastic heatsink cover", both seems to be too random to be used to identify the different versions, the serial number of the plastic cover sometimes is missing, and the only reference is the plastic material used to "mold" it, the 2 plastics used are shorted to "BAYER" and "SABIC", but the exact reference of this plastics can be seen inside the power supply case (that seems to be the same materials) as follows:
- BAYER BAYBLEND KU2-1514>PC+ABS-FR(40)<
- SABIC CYCOLOY CH6410>PC+SAN-FR(40)<

In this models, the airflow passes inside the power supply, so can be considered part of the "air tunnel"
The surface closer to the center of the fan is the CELL... and the other is RSX... the air passes first trought CELL metal elements (cooler) and then passes trought RSX elements (hotter), the copper pipes are for CELL surface and are connected to a "secondary" cooling metal block placed laterally inside the air tunnel
revision 1
- Notes (identification)
- Is the only "type 5" heatsink with horizontal plates, and vertical "columns". The horizontal plates allows the airflow to spread in radial directions from the fan center, and consequently to enter in the power supply in angles
- The vertical "columns" doesnt seems to be copper pipes and are soldered/drilled in the RSX metal block, this manufacturing process left some marks that are visibles in the bottom view

revision 2
- Notes (identification)
- CELL surface has no drill/holes marks, and one corner is "out" of the plate, the secondary cooling metal block (after the copper pipe) has 12 vertical plates
- RSX has 2 drills/holes at the sides

revision 3
- Notes (identification)
- CELL surface has 12 drills/holes that are partially visibles in the bottom and top views
- Doesnt seems to have a copper pipe in the bottom view. but some copper is partially visible in the top view so is supposed it has a copper pipe over the plate (that is flanked by 2 paralell lines visibles in the bottom view)

- RSX surface has 5 holes/drills

revision 5
- Notes (identification)
- CELL copper pipe is soldered and glued and gets out of CELL surface vertically, and is connected to a secondary CELL cooling block with 11 plates placed in a side, both are visibles from a bottom view (the 2 lines in paralell to the copper pipe in the bottom view are the base of the secondary CELL cooling metal block)
- CELL primary cooling block is glued to CELL surface
- RSX cooling block has 16 verticall plates, and is drilled/soldered by 4 points to the bottom plate of the heatsink that is cropped. This block is mobile thanks to this areas cropped and the drilled holes (can be moved up or down some milimeters)
- The 2 surfaces are made of alluminium but with a different alloy (CELL is harder to polish and darker)
