I'm curious about thermal behavior under sustained load. The PS5's cooling is tuned tightly to the stock firmware's power envelope; running arbitrary Linux workloads probably hits different thermal profiles. Did you see throttling during long gaming sessions, or is the headroom sufficient when you're not pushing the RSX equivalent?

Also, can you do this and still be able to access the original OS? It be nice to run Linux on it, but I'd also need to access my PS5 library, so do I need two machines for this?

tl;dr Get a copy of Star Wars: Racer Revenge (ps4) before it goes over $200.

Anybody running any AI models using the GPU of PS5 or using the ram (16GB).

PS5 is probably sold at a loss/bare minimum profit to turn profit during the gaming product itself, not the hardware as compared to the steam machine

So running Linux on PS5 is so freaking cool. Gonna have to share this article with my brother who owns one.

This reminds me of that time when US govt. bought over 1700* (see derektank's comment) PS3 or similar and hooked them up all together to make a supercomputer because this way it costed them less than having a computer themselves and Today's ram prices being 5 times higher in such short term is yea.

PS5 hacking community feels really cool!
