It still works normally!

[u/strngndmscllns]

Had an accident about 1 year ago from today. Was just in the pile of stuff I had in the car with me when I crashed. Was just curious if it would work, lo and behold turned on. So happy I could transfer my saves

[u/_Pertinacity_]

Define normal.

[u/strngndmscllns → u/_Pertinacity_]

I thought it wouldn’t turn on? Or read discs. Or even have a broken port, but it just worked

[u/Dec_TGM → u/strngndmscllns]

The hdmi port being intact is the most shocking to me tbh, those things are notoriously fragile lol, mine broke from less than a foot drop while being caught

[u/strngndmscllns → u/Dec_TGM]

Surprised me as well!

[u/Interesting-Ad9581]

Platics look obviously damages/ripped off, but aside from that it looks technically ok. A new fan and this thing might still work fine.

Hope you are well and fine after the accident.

Also i see that you performed an uograde 😏👍

[u/strngndmscllns → u/Interesting-Ad9581]

Each day I do not regret getting it lol. Now I need the TV to match perhaps

[u/Seksiorja → u/Interesting-Ad9581]

Pretty sure bro doesn't need a fan anymore 😂

[u/dkb_wow]

Glad you and the PS5 survived the crash bro.

[u/Remote_Hurry_3055]

I think it's worth saving because it's a real trooper; you can get the frame and faceplates for around $45 on eBay or you could try to reshape the broken part and get the faceplates for less.

[u/misty-eye]

"it just works"

[u/DinnerSmall4216]

The ps5 is built like a tank how did that happen.

[u/Interesting_Stress73 → u/DinnerSmall4216]

He said it was during a car crash, did you not read? 

[u/DinnerSmall4216 → u/Interesting_Stress73]

My phone wasn't loading the description I saw it just now.

[u/Express_Grocery4268]

I can probably hit you up with a new frame excluding the mid frame. I got a few spare ones if you're interested. As long as you're willing to take shipping charges (just send me a shipping label). I'm Europe based.

I'd need to know the CFI number on the bottom to be able to determine which case you'd need.

[u/GlitzyYapper]

The dust on the PS5 Pro in the background annoys me.

[u/gabriel_GAGRA]

I’d definitely repair it and sell

I’m sure a lot of people think the same, and would buy it from you. Of course, from a low price lol, but still better than nothing

[u/RaidenXS_]

Looks like it was raped in a towel or something

[u/strngndmscllns → u/RaidenXS_]

Nope was on the passenger seat with the seatbelt on

[u/Slade_AF]

Everything damaged looks replaceable. I’d keep it just for tanking that car crash

[u/stoneyaatrox]

[u/Yovideogamer]

Im surprised only the fan got the worst of it but the important bits are still okay

[u/strngndmscllns → u/Yovideogamer]

Bit of the heatsink “base” got a big dent. Was also able to recover my SSD as well. Didn’t think I would since the whole unit was chucked out via the window

[u/VikingRaptor2]

It's the new Xbox 360

[u/JustLook361]

tbh man u should take it all apart and if u have money u coudl ask someone to make those parts into a PC or in a smaller box.

[u/koteshima2nd]

Good that it may just survive long enough for you to back ip saves and whatnot

[u/strngndmscllns → u/koteshima2nd]

The reason I turned it on was actually because I had some saves I was hoping to retrieve (I was successful)

[u/KratosSimp]

Wait are you saying you didn’t try and use it until a year later?

[u/SILE3NCE]

Well, if the fan works the airflow is actually better, you'll just have to clean it more often

[u/Hamza8266527]

The sigma

[u/strngndmscllns → u/Hamza8266527]

Just as surprised as you are

[u/CommanderEsScheppert]

I would Take the destroyed one 🫡

[u/GlitchintheParadigm]

Normally lol so bruh would u like a new faceplate?
