  • With the motherboards gone, we take a moment to admire the full cooling system. What a cool cookie sandwich.

  • The mint green cream filling is a bunch of thermal compound, which help dissipate that Gaming Heat™.

  • On the left: Fins pull heat from the copper vapor chamber to be wicked away by cool air, pulled in through the bottom of the console by the fan.

  • Next up—along with the copper plate, this metal frame acts as an EM shield. It also transfers heat away from the hot-tempered voltage regulator modules via thermal pad.

  • The "CCS" (that's "Center Chassis") provides rigidity, aids in shielding, sinks heat, and maximizes board cooling.

  • Finally on the far right, a Faraday-cage-like EM shield protects the other motherboard while allowing air to cycle through.
