PS2 portable!!
Moderator:Moderators
Yeah, first here (on this thread at least)
Any how, I reduce the thickness of my ps2 to around 1 inch.
The nice part is that it still has a usb port, I don't think I'm going to be using firewire, so I'll probably not keep the port.

Looks like it's comming along very well. Those are some very nice projects on your site.

Ok, here a a couple of images of my ps2 right now.
I removed the usb port I had on before, and I'm going to replace it with a usb header board for a computer.
Overall it's around 1.5 inches thick. I'm hoping to be able to cut that down a little by modding the dvd drive. That way I'll have more room for the screen, although, if I do make it load like the ps1, I'll probably change the design, allthough I'm trying to keep the heatsink away from the controller area.

well, I got tired of trying to fix my ps2 mb, so I bought another ps2 off of ebay. I got it for around $53 after shipping. All that's wrong with it is the cd tray and the case is in bad condition. Luckily in my portable I won't be using either of those, so it doesn't really effect me.
Now all that I'm wondering is what version mb it has. If it's a V3 that's great, if it's a V4 that's also great. Any other version isn't bad, but either of those two would be the best.

I was using a Version 3 PS2 for my Portable. Here are the pictures of the V3 motherboard.
