TronicsFix I have a question: my ps4 slim got really loud a while ago (im in a basement and i could hear it from the second floor) and i assumed it was just dust so i opened it up to clean it out but there was no dust, dirt or hair whatsoever so i decided to change the thermal paste, my ps4 slim is still loud and getting louder by the day even though i do high maintenence to keep it clean and its in a very wide open spot, could you please give me a guess as to why it may be getting so loud? i fear it may die out soon
TronicsFix Is it normal for my Ps4 to get hot. I got the PS4 that came with Cod 3 bundle. Also could you make a video on how hot the Ps4 get's?? (The PS4 model that came with cod3 bundle)
Hi man! First thanks for the video, it has exactly answered my question about PS4 getting hot! Second, you speak really clearly and explain thing in a simple and efficient way! Thanks again, I liked it
Dukes the reason the ps4 slim feels hotter is because its very compact therfore heat can penetrate much more effectivly, the reason the OG ps4 seems less hot is because most of that heat is on the bottom due to fan placment and it has more room for air to pass by and since air is terrible at transfering heat you wont feel it as much on the OG plastic body unlike the slim where as i said before everything is compact and tightly placed together
I wouldn't say it's not as reliable...Slims seem to be just as reliable if not more than previous models based on the # of repairs we get in. Time will tell though.
Got my slim Ps4 5 days ago.After 7 hour family play with 3 pauses, the playstation freeze when i look in store at games.When i check it out it was very hot....I must reconect all cables to make it work again :(
I'm here once again to fix my PlayStation my original PlayStation 4 and now my PlayStation Slim such fond memories this is the guy I recommend for all my future endeavors when it comes down to clean things like your PlayStation
Thanks so much for this video. We were able to 'half fix' our PS4. Now it is making a lot of fan noise. I cleaned the fan and blew out the heat source, still making some noise. We are getting an error code too. It was a good project, but honestly, I do not have a lot of time to do this. Thanks so much.
I got mine 3 days ago and it only gets a little hot in the top right corner but I keep it really clean and when im done playing I let it cool off and then cover it with a cloth so dust won't get on it
Great video. Just re-pasted my Slim thanks to another one of your videos. Besides the horrendous paste job from the factory, my slim is also a dust vacuum, I couldn’t believe how much dust had accumulated.
@@Tronicsfix I've only taken off the 1st metal case and dusted out the fan and the top of the heat sink, I didnt take off the heat sink or motherboard. How do you know when it is time to replace the thermal paste?
My brother had his own little gaming room built for his gaming consoles PS3/PS4/PS5, he used to keep temperature below 20°C with AC, his consoles never had any heating issues. Room temperature and amount of dust entering the room where your consoles is, effects it's heating time
Something I have experienced on multiple PS4 Pro systems I have modded is the heat and fan noise generation is largely related to the GDDR5 on the backside of the motherboard due to grossly inadequate cooling (the PWM of the fan is definitely tied to the memory in addition to the APU), I wouldn't be surprised if this affects the PS4 Slim as well--could be an idea for a future video if nothing else.
One of the first accessories I buy when I buy a new console is an external cooling fan(s). Also, vacuuming out the dust from the intake and where the hot air blows out is obviously nessasary if you maximum air flow. Game hard or don't game at all.
I have my PS4 Slim for exact 2 Months and until the first day it's getting really warm... i refer would say "hot"... especially at the top right corner and bottom in the back were the power supply is... but no matter if you play 2 or 6 hours, the temperature remains the same... and it's running really well without any problems. Also if you see movies about the browser, the Slim gets really warm... no matter what you do, it's every time the same temperature.
it does not overheat but does feels as if it will kill itself if it continues in that heat range, im sure, one can cook an over easy egg on a 3 hour game play.
@@Tops-gn1xx it’s nothing to do with the fact there less powerful. PS3’s are just better in general and have better cooling systems. When I touch my PS3 slim after about 4 hours I can barley feel any heat, and it’s running mods as well. But when I touch my original PS4 it feels like there’s a fire inside because the plastic case is so thin and cheap and the cooling system can’t handle the computing power properly.
You're a good man for this stuff and answering replies. Coming from a elite xb1 its kinda scary feeling how hot my new/used ps4 slim gets. It may be normal but I won't be using it for anything other than gaming because it makes me paranoid. So happy to own both now, sigh, my work on earth is finished🙏
1:00 thanks, that is what i was looking for. My PS4 is pretty hot after 5 hours of playing and it is placed on a small place so i was scared,but i don't have any of these signs
My 60GB PS3 (which is over 10 years old now) would get up to 72 C* and with a fan mod it's somewhere in the 60*C range. I'm not worried about my slim overheating compared to this.
Mine is completely clean, but still gets super hot just by staying in the main screen for 10 minutes and the fan even tho the PS4 is starting to get super hot it runs slow, like just by gently pushing it with your finger it stops, so I dunno. everything else is fine it just, don't keep up with the heat
I've just replaced thermo paste, cleaned heat sink and fan, its still gets too hot and shut down after 30mn when playing games. Watching videos on the console doesn't make it overheat and turn off. How to fix ? I think the fan is not powerful enough to cool heath sink
Another thing could be if the metal casing above the fan is stopping the fan from spinning because it was press down into the fan. I guess from the previous owner dropping it or having something heavy on top.
Thank you, great vid! However, mine gets hot and makes noises after ~5-10 minutes of inserting a disc. You seem like the only one in the world who may know about this, so... any idea? I've been looking everywhere, I will be really thankful for all your help! PS: Yes, I cleaned the fans from dust
Thanks. I just bought a PS4 Slim and I was pretty worried when I touched it and the surface under it and it was pretty hot after playing for a while. In my mind, hot machine=danger, so I was pretty scared it might get damaged. This takes a load off my mind.
I haven't seen a red light. Still to stop me worrying, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE USB LAPTOP COOLERS WITH the TWO BIG FANS AND HAS TO HAVE THE ALUMINUM TOP PLATE WHICH CONTACTS THE side of PS4 touching the cooler. Several models of this. Mine was $20.
The problem is that its pointless most will simple get screwed even without ever entering the overheat protection, there's a really big number of people with the console turning off and doesn't start up or just simply the BLOD. I had the latest best version of the PS4 before the slim (3rd version with the big cooler and slightly more energy efficient than the 2nd version and way better than the first one), I sold it to a friend when I upgraded to the PRO. My friend already have it for almost a year, but last weak the console had the starting problem, it would start then shut down, I guess the console is dying, good thing is its still under warranty until like March next year. Both me or him always let the console cool down at least 5min in the menu after playing a game before turning off, it has nothing around it so it has enough cool air to push and the consoles just seem to be made to break after warranty is over just like the PS3. My current PS4 Pro also already shutdown while gaming twice already, I don't know if its also failing or if its other software errors, I barely used the console, I left it OFF for like half a year. Both consoles are also completely dust-free, not a single bit of big dust on the air entrance... Every time I clean my room I always clean my console with the Vacuum cleaner with a big brush adapter (so it also doesn't make much pressure and doesn't turn the fans inside, just cleans outside). Never use a powerful vacuum cleaner directly or with the high pressure small head adapter, it might cause overvoltage damage inside if the fans overspin since they create electricity while spinning, for that the fans need to be stop from moving and only then you could blow\suck air at high pressure.
Omg thank the Lord my PS4 shut off randomly while watching UA-cam it's either it literally died or I just didn't pay attention to it but how long does it take for it to turn back on
Thanks for clearing that out, i got a PS4 Slim a couple months ago and was always wondering how that could be possible, that the whole thing felt way too hot on touch, but yeah, it's brand new, doesnt show any red light and runs smooth. I guess if you touch an oven's door, yeah that means it's probably doing his job xD
I know this is 7 months later but it would help airflow by opening up the hot plate to open air and allow it access to more air. Same with the fan, allowing the fan unrestricted air flow will help it cool by allowing fresh air in instead of blowing already warm air into the system
I've never gotten the overheating beeps and light, but it does got hot pretty quickly and I checked my hard drive to see if that was what was being affected, and the hard drive was hot enough to burn me. I've dusted the system as best as I could and honestly, I don't know what solution I could go with right now.
Yeah bro you might need to clean it out and reapply some new thermal paste to the apu. Our tech guru has a video on it check it out and make sure that you know where every screw goes and WATCH how you connect and disconnect ribbon cables
I noticed one of my Fan wires was loose and had to be adjusted to make sure it was getting a full connection. After words, fan worked again, and system ran fine besides overheating when playing a CD game. downloaded games and streaming services run fine.
My ps4 slim is soo hot it decided to shut down this happens all the time and I get error messages a lot and it's rlly loud I'm about to clean it later tonight for the next couple first time I got this in Dec of 2017 Also never witnessed the red light thing nor have I heard the beeping
You guys need to open it up and clean the heatsink, mine sounded like an airplane engine when I played warzone, after a good clean it's been nothing but quite
PS4 overheating is just a sign of use, really. I still have my pre-ordered system and today I replaced the thermal paste and it runs like brand new. Cleaning dust out and replacing paste is completely normal and just something you'll have to do every once in a while. Quite happy with this little machine and if I ever replace it I'm gonna miss the light bar and touch sensitive buttons.. Not to mention the nice design.
Thanks nice vid, I watched most of your videos. For general knowledge: I am using now in summer around 40 celcius degrees without any problem. I elevated ps4 slim from corners for air flow below.
Okay good. I never knew That there is a Error if it's overheating. I thought it was overheating but no. Thank you for saying that. Imma sub ;). P.S: You are the best console Tech guy ever ( EVER! ) :)
thx for the videos, the probleme is that once it started to get hot. It usualy gets worse and worse until you hit the sweet spot where the console start overheating for real. Once you get there its too late.
Thanks for watching and let me know what other videos you guys would like to see!

Your thinking of the fat PS3
it's a shame that the PS4 slim isn't as reliable as the ps2 or the ps3 slim..
my brother has the PS4 slim which runs hotter than my fat ps4

Maybe clean your fan and heat sink. If it's clogged with dust cold air won't help. Luckily they designed this console to be easy to clean.

My PS4 is pretty hot after 5 hours of playing and it is placed on a small place so i was scared,but i don't have any of these signs
I bought a laptop cooler for my ps4 for a longer life span. Also if temps get high, the ps4 cooler speed will rise witch results in more dust intake.
After seeing this video I'm more relaxed. Thank you for the information. 👍

Should I cover the console with something when I'm not using it with something, to prevent it from getting dusty?
cover it with dust or sand, its a great protect. i put mine in water and then in fridge. afer 2 years its run perfectly inside my trash
Best video. Keep on uploading vids.
doesn't a ps4 have a built in failsafe where the system will turn off before it actually overheats.
Yep...that's what I show in this video...it will turn itself off when it gets too hot.
The problem is that its pointless most will simple get screwed even without ever entering the overheat protection, there's a really big number of people with the console turning off and doesn't start up or just simply the BLOD.
I had the latest best version of the PS4 before the slim (3rd version with the big cooler and slightly more energy efficient than the 2nd version and way better than the first one), I sold it to a friend when I upgraded to the PRO.

No, I would always choose a slim over the first gen
The original ones fans sound a lot louder on max loud than the slim fans sound in max load.
My ps4 slim never overheat it even can hand 10hours playing gta v

Thanks nice vid, I watched most of your videos. For general knowledge: I am using now in summer around 40 celcius degrees without any problem. I elevated ps4 slim from corners for air flow below.
Glad you liked it! Sounds like you've been smart with you PS4.

thx for the videos, the probleme is that once it started to get hot. It usualy gets worse and worse until you hit the sweet spot where the console start overheating for real. Once you get there its too late.
You're the best bro👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
How in the hell can a fairly new console get that clogged and dirty around the heat sink? That is truly remarkable to me.
I’m about to buy one this Friday:)
