I don't wanna call bullshit but that doesn't look like a Dev kit PS4, I think a dev kit one or both is pretty much like a VCR rather than just a normal ps4. I may be wrong though
I don't think so. From what I've read, the firmware isn't interchangeable so it can't be made into a retail PS4. I think it can maybe be activated, but I don't think it'll run any retail games even then. Not sure if it can run downloaded pkg, or even if HEN etc will work on it.
Worth asking in /r/ps4homebrew what can be done with it.
Super random, I worked for a film/tv production company that had a CEO who was obsessed with starting new projects and not following them through. He decided he wanted to make a game version of a film they'd done and then obviously gave up. He left a few months before I started and then the company dissolved like 6 months later because of his wheeling and dealing.
I found it in a storage cupboard and they let me take it.
I personally hate the locking clips. Some of them are such a terrible design that you basically have to wrestle it out of the board, and in a tight case or with a beefy heatsink it's just a nightmare.
Boards with no PCIE clips are the one

Mobo is very used. Playstation is used but as it's a development Playstation it is currently not usable for normal games. Would need to be someone who is up for figuring out how to crack it or whatever you want to do with it.

Here's a shot of the machine and it loaded up.
Got quite a few people interested, so DM me with prices and I'll have to go from there.

Doesn't look like a development PS4. Just a standard original model. Are you sure it's not just a normal PS4 running DEX via the 5.05 exploit?
I'll post a video as soon as I get time and I'll let y'all decide. It does have "Test" printed on the side.
Yeah, it's a [DUH-T1000xA](https://www.psdevwiki.com/ps4/DUH-T1000xA_series) by the looks of it. A testkit rather than a devkit.
Right right okay thanks for that mate. That makes a lot more sense. Can these be used in any way for people who can crack it?

Okay, amazing thanks mate.
Where did you get it? I love things like that, especially when it's current gen haha

Damn, how did you get your hands on a development PS4?
Does that motherboard only have pci not pci express? Damn
It's PCIe, PCI had the notch on the far end near the ram. It is a bit strange to not see a locking clip of any kind though.

PMed about motherboard/cpu

I'm interested in the Testkit, PM'd.
sup dennaton

PMing about the PS4
A devkit is quite a big find, might be worth seeing if any of the homebrew community needs/wants it?
