Another huge tip to fixing the loudness of the fan is to replace the thermal paste in the PS4. Flip it over on the back (remember to take out the screw by the ports) and get to the motherboard and replace the thermal paste. It's a night and day difference!
Dude this is the best video I’ve seen on how to clean a ps4 slim. I think my game is fixed now bc of you. I haven’t been on it all year literally bc it kept over heating. I hope this helps me
The fact that he knows how to completely open up a PS4, and the fact that he didn’t know that the controller shapes where on the bottom of the PS4 is hilarious
I cleaned my brothers ps4, note that it was the first model when it had just released. That thing still sounds like a jet engine but at least it’s a much quieter jet engine now LOL
I open mines today for the first time since 2016 it’s not even caked up with dust it’s so clean some dust in the corners but the fam was amazing clean no caked up dirt in it I’m so happy
I don´t know if you will see this since this video is one year old but if you do: Thank you so much! This video helped me clean my PS4 without destroying it and make it almost completly quiet!
Thank you so much!! This helped me learn how to clean my PS4! When I opened it up, there was an absolutely thick blanket of dust over the heat sync that was causing my PS$ to become really loud upon starting a game.
Maybe I'm just stupid but could that build up also be why my ps4 gets really hot so fast. I've had problems with overheating and so when I turn on my ps4 I check to see how fast until it gets hot and within 5 minutes or so it gets pretty hot. Could that simply just be because of buildup of dust? It's also right by the heat sync so im now assuming that's what it is.
Thank you soooo much, The previous owner of my ps4 didn't clean it for 3 years!!! I was confused why it sounded like an airplane while watching youtube
If ur terrified (like me) to do this. I’d recommended to brush the sides and blow, them safe mode-> rebuild database. My game ran so much more smooth afterwards
Awesome video! This helped me take my poor PS4 apart. It was a used one from eBay always seemed super loud and was like a small heater in my room. Took it apart while watching this video and I wish I could show you the pictures of the literal dust and lint carpet that had covered my heat sink plus the disgusting caked up fan blades and fan housing! Thank you for this video! Especially helpful was that last part about that small grey tab. Best wishes!
@@alexandercastillo7714 Should have. Unless they had a hardware issue, dirty intakes and stuff is the usual cause of a loud PS4. After you clean it, it should run smoother and quieter.

Sadly I could open up my PS4 completely cuz there wasn't screws in some parts they had like black nails or something holding them and I couldn't figure how to take them off
My experience with the ps4 is that most of the dust and hair accumulates under the bottom cover which requires you to remove the warranty screw. Under the top cover my ps4 looked very good but when I remove the bottom cover it was a freaking disaster.
Thats what I was wondering... Besides I don't know who the bigger idiot was Him or his brother.... His brotherfor not wipingit down every once and a while, or dummy #1 blows it out withair, then takesitaapart anyways, only to not do a proper cleanm "... I could clean each blad.. but I don't want to..."Then why bother... and/or #2 ( My late brothertold me) never use Canned air on electronics as you can/will freeze components and could possibly cause cracks or fractures in soldier or comonents rendering you Electronics completely useless... and if it does freeze them and youputyour PS4back to gether and turn it on right away... well if youare not sure what happens. stick your ps4 in youur freezer for a day, then plugit in and turn it on andsee what... doesnt happen... lol...
I found out you can unscrew them but don’t unscrew them completely just enough to lift up the metal plates but I got annoyed with doing that shit so I just put a hair dryer to “clean” the fan 🤷🏽♂️ it got annoying trying to screw the plastic ones off I couldn’t handle
Rich people: Poor people: *SAME* People who show the required object before the toutorial starts: Edit: Thanks for the great video btw, I just didn't started to clean it because even if I had the right tools, I woul'd be afraid that I mess it up 😉 But I need to find them tools because my ps4 is loud asf and I don't want any damage 😅😁👍
Was wondering what tools should I use for my original Wii? I need to get that cleaned too! And no Vacuum to be used in the process of the cleaning of the PS4??
My slim doesn't have screws on the silver plate. Instead it has like plastic melted, looks like rivets. So if a remove the plate, I'll have to break a plastic things and there is no way to "screw" is back.
@Haplessnote 9418 you're gonna need a set of special Allen wrenches or a special multi-tool, just gotta match the shapes up. Best of luck trust me way easier than you think.

Have no fear! It's easier than it looks. If you can use a screwdriver and follow a video it's easy.
As long as you don't use a lot of force and move slowly/carefully while following directions, you'll be fine. It's a lot easier than expected.
