      @@npsheep8811 There have been heightened concerns recently following a discovery that standing PS5s may be prone to liquid metal leakage and eventual console failure. However, the original report has been now retracted as it was a misunderstanding of tweets from French repair shops. The problem can occur only if the PS5 has been manually dismantled affecting the liquid metal barrier and normal use in any position should pose no issues.

    THANK YOU!!!! I have been arguing this exact point for over a year. I have a launch ps5 and have been experiencing overheating issues after a year of use. I do not live in tropical conditions and in the vertical position it was useless and would overheat. But in the horizontal position it was controllable but still happened. The overall solution was new brand dark plates with the side vents that allowed more air flow and lower temps and thus no more overheating.

      @Russian Ryth I remember something about this in the past when the PS5 first came out when no one could find one. Something about the liquid metal.
      Unfortunately replacing the liquid metal with thermal paste doesn't work. The current thermal paste doesn't redistribute or dissipate enough for it to be effective option for the PS5.
      This was due to the spacing or how hot the system actual got or something. I just remember that tests were done and the liquid metal was practically mandatory.

    1. This is pretty rare and hasn’t happened nearly as much as it’s being reported
    2. If you’re worried about your ps5 ➡️ if you’ve had your ps5 for a while and haven’t noticed any changes in performance you’re fine because it will instantly affect your console (it’s not something that just suddenly happens after 2 years, and it’s likely people that this has happened to have been constantly moving/shaking their console to where the liquid metal makes it pass the seal).
    3. If it was really an issue Sony would be facing a lawsuit of some sort and it would actually be a disaster. So don’t worry, just don’t move/rotate your ps5 excessively 💯
