Here’s a step‑by‑step write‑up for adapting an ATX PC power supply to a PS4 Fat (CUH-10xx / 11xx).
⚠️ Warning: This is an advanced mod. Incorrect wiring can destroy the PS4 or cause fire. Do this only if you understand voltages, soldering, and multimeter use.
Before connecting to the PS4:
Some PC PSUs need a minimum load on 5V or 12V to regulate properly. Attach a 10Ω, 10W resistor between 5V and ground or a 12V PC fan. Without it, the PSU might shut down or deliver unstable voltage.
Solder your custom harness directly to the motherboard’s power input pads (or to the original connector if you saved it). Re-check polarity twice. Then connect the PS_ON control transistor circuit as described. adaptar fuente de pc a ps4 fat
Double-check: The PS4 motherboard must NEVER receive 12V on the standby pin. That will fry the Southbridge instantly.
From your ATX PSU (via a spare 24-pin extension cut in half), extract: Here’s a step‑by‑step write‑up for adapting an ATX
Solder each connection individually and cover with heatshrink. Do not rely on twisting wires – the PS4 draws up to 10A on 12V when gaming. Solder or use high-quality crimp connectors.
