Will a T10 work on a PS4?

Yes, a T10 Torx security screwdriver (T10H) is often included in repair kits and can work for some external screws on a PS4 console and its controller, but the most critical size for the PS4 controller security screws is T8H, while the PS4 console often uses a T9 or T10 (or T8H), so having both T8H and T10H in a kit covers most needs, but you might also need a standard Philips head for other screws.

What can I use instead of a Torx screwdriver?

You can use a small flathead screwdriver, pliers, or even a coin**, but the best non-Torx substitutes are often an appropriately sized Allen key (hex key) or modified household items, though using a proper Torx bit is always recommended to avoid stripping the screw head.

Does the PS5 leak liquid metal?

The PS5 liquid metal leak issue involves gallium-based thermal paste seeping from the APU (processor), causing overheating, performance drops, and shutdowns, especially in early models, but Sony has since introduced a fix with redesigned cooling in newer PS5 Slim and PS5 Pro models by adding containment features like ridges. While early reports pointed to vertical placement as a cause, it's now understood that wear and tear, physical shock, or improper reassembly after a drop/repair are primary triggers for leaks, leading to dry spots and conductivity risks.

Is it better to put PS5 vertical or horizontal?

It's safe to use your PS5 either vertically or horizontally as Sony designed it for both, but horizontal placement offers slightly more stability and avoids the (mostly debunked) concern about liquid metal pooling, while vertical saves space and lets heat rise, but requires a solid stand and careful placement to prevent tipping. The best choice depends on your space, setup, and preference, ensuring adequate airflow in either case.

How do you unscrew a Torx without a Torx screwdriver?

To remove a Torx screw without the driver, use pliers to grip the head if it's exposed, a flathead screwdriver or hex key that fits snugly into the points (especially for security Torx), or a drill bit jammed into the head to break off the center pin (for security Torx) so you can use a regular bit, or try melting a plastic item like a pen cap into the head for a temporary grip, but pliers or a well-fitting flat tool offer the best chance without the right bit.

Can you use an Allen key instead of Torx?

No, you generally cannot use an Allen key (hex) in place of a Torx (star), or vice versa, because their shapes (hexagonal vs. six-pointed star) are different and won't fit correctly, leading to damaged tools and stripped screws; however, some people find success in emergencies using a slightly oversized Torx key in a stripped hex head for low-torque applications, but it's not recommended.
