I had same problem. Last week I replace the thermal paste with new Arctic MX-6 and changed all thermal pads with Arctic TP-3. Now my PS4 Pro is ultrasilent. I also made made sure my ps4 is in a open place for air to circulate properly. Make sure your PS4's tiny feets are intact. If some feets have broken raise it with some bluetack or buy new feets
Thermal paste and cleaning the fan radiator, these two worked for me. It will take 2 hours and lifetime of patience to get it done. My PS4 pro is silent now. Thanks. You should show how to remove power supply connectors and well.
Thank you so much for this video. I've been struggling with this issue with my PS4 for months now. Tried to give a go at replacing the thermal paste yesterday only to discover a stripped screw in my console. I have no idea how to go about removing it without a drill.
Why did you not replace the thermal pads? Can you not see how they have been crushed and the indentation in the center of them as well as how they do not completely cover the chips?
For best results I would clean the heat sync, because where all the dust clogs up, it’ll still make the ps4 over heat therefore will need more thermal paste when you take it apart again
Also seen some people suggest replacing the thermal pads on the ram slots and HDMI chip which is something I will do on top of the thermal paste. My guess is the ram gets fairly hot as well and fails to dissipate heat to the metal plate above.
Did you clean the heatsink’s radiator on its other side? If not, then it’s probably why it’s still getting hot. If it’s clogged with dust, the air coming from the fan won’t be able to blow through it making your fan spin faster/louder in an attempt to cool it down.
Good video. I sometimes wish more people online who complain about the PS4's "jet engine" noise would courageously take it upon themselves or have someone else disassemble to clean out their system and replace the thermal paste. I've read it so many times that people whose system starts getting loud would just decide to sell their PS4 and just buy a PS5. Obviously, if your PS4 started sounding loud in due time, what makes you think the PS5 won't do the same in a few months or a few years? By the way, I'm not saying they shouldn't buy a PS5, either. The PS5 is pretty cool in its own way. They just shouldn't "fix" their problem by selling one console, which technically still works and only needs a bit of deep cleaning, by buying another. To me, that's a waste of money.
I just replaced the Thermal paste and my Ps4 is now ultrasilent. Thank you for the Tutorial Edit: 1 Month Later it started again to be loud, but not like a jet animore. I hope it will stay there if not I need to get rid of this system. Then its time for a Ps5.
It’s weird with my ps4 pro i did full cleaning/change inner parts have it in decent place for air and still get it overheated and shuts off with some games
Got the 500 mil edition and just did maintenance on it new thermal paste and pads throughly cleaned it and put a 4tb ssd on it. Runs better then when I got it but it’s still pretty loud. The previous ps4 pro I did maintenance on was pretty silent so was wondering is the fans had something to do with it
I got the same one 2nd hand from CEX it sounded like an aircraft at first especially when it’s got a disc inside so I stripped it both top and bottom only and cleaned out the heat sink and the fans plus all the vents throughly it I can’t hear practically anything from it now even with a disk it is warm to touch but guess that’s normal as I can’t hear the fans as loud as before I didn’t replace the thermal paste as I didn’t wanna mess around with it too much but I will if needed to if I experience any future problems with it
You gotta invest in good thermal paste and thermal pads. Before I used cheap paste and the Pro was back to sounding like Sony Airlines in less than 6 months! Now after using Grizzly Kryonaut Extreme paste and DRIFTice thermal pads let me tell you, my Pro has never been so silent. I’m not exaggerating either the damn thing runs so much cooler now. I also have a 7200 series so that may make a difference in sound, too. N trust me, I know how obnoxious these things can be when the fan kicks in, I have yet to hear the fan do so.
I've been sticking with Thermal Grizzly - Kryonaut 12.5 W/mk or Kryonaut Extreme 14.2 W/mk. Would recommend! (Unless you can/want to apply liquid metal)
Hi, I had a question after playing the noctua nt-h1 dough silicone on the PS4 pro, how many days should we wait or turn on the device quickly? I changed the thermal paste, but the fan made a lot of noise again.
like a minute away from cleaning the fan and heatsink, q -tips would be better than a toothpick too. cleaning the heatsink properly will allow you to do an impression of Barret from ffvii while running GoW. "can you hear that ps4 fan, revving up?" "you can hear that?" "yea" "get help"
Congrats for the PS4 I enjoy your videos 👍🏻 Since you have GOLD Barr on your table you can afford to do a controller giveaway or something once in a while lol
I just bought mine. Refurbished PS4 pro from Best Buy. It’s already crazy loud while playing any game. It’s ridiculous. Everything is clean, properly ventilated, and still sounds like a jet engine. I should have just stuck with PC.
There's no solution you can change thermal paste and thermal pads and it won't help after a few months the noise comes back, this video game is totally bad proposed, I suggest selling and buying a ps5.
Yo that's because number one make sure you're getting a good brand of thermal paste and number two clean the heat sink and the fan everything has to be cleaned last two three years before you have to clean it again
Whatever console you have you don’t have to mess around with it trying to make it quieter? Connect to a A/V 5.1 amp & some heavy duty speakers & let the neighbour worry about the noise😵💫🫨🤡🤬🤪
Besides putting new thermo paste you also need to do a total cleaning inside like the fan heat sink and air vents.

same mx-6, my ps4 pro is silent now 🤣
I used MX4 and same result, nice and quiet
Did it work
Is your ps4 still silent?
Thermal paste and cleaning the fan radiator, these two worked for me.
It will take 2 hours and lifetime of patience to get it done.
My PS4 pro is silent now.
Thanks.
You should show how to remove power supply connectors and well.
This guy is using a 100$ thermal paste.....i can't afford that much. Can you please tell me what's the price of thermal paste you used
i suggest mx-6
Thank you so much for this video. I've been struggling with this issue with my PS4 for months now. Tried to give a go at replacing the thermal paste yesterday only to discover a stripped screw in my console. I have no idea how to go about removing it without a drill.
I have a short video on how to remove them
Great video
I changed the thermal paste and put a new fan in and a deep clean it’s now so quiet
That's genuinely a huge change. Omg
I use a coffee filter with alchohol 90+ proof to clean the apu. Works wonders.
Very useful. Reduced overheating and loud sound at half. Updating soon , if some go wrong. Thanks alot!
❤❤Thank you, i just give my ps4 to the guy to fix it, he said we will call you in 2 or 3 days. Im hoping they make it good again
Heyyyy
What happened next
@@marysadat8020 hey
Actually they did a pretty good job, it got good , the unusual noise went away and the heat.
hotter exterior means that the thermal paste is doing a great job lifting the heat away from the cpu and bringing it into the surface.
dont forget to check thermalpads when assembling back

Yo I took mine completely apart the heat sink was completely filled with dust

Yes I used a vacuum to suck all the dust
@@VKsChannel its not enough, it gets fluff and dust in the heatsink, you need to remove it manually
@@xxsxxXx You must be fun at the party, please rope
@@xxsxxXx100000000 % true he didn’t do the important point is to clean the radiator heatsink
step 1. put a paperclip in the fan
enjoy your silent ps4
I thought you would suggest to put a paper piece on top of the processor
Why?
@@daam9888 just don’t….

Ps4 is too slow compared to the ps5. No point in using ps4 if you can get a ps5
I just replaced the Thermal paste and my Ps4 is now ultrasilent. Thank you for the Tutorial

Bad design of PS4 Pro by Sony. They have never learned from their mistakes of PS3
It’s weird with my ps4 pro i did full cleaning/change inner parts have it in decent place for air and still get it overheated and shuts off with some games
Same here
What about the black screw when u open the power supply is it needed to take out
Got the 500 mil edition and just did maintenance on it new thermal paste and pads throughly cleaned it and put a 4tb ssd on it. Runs better then when I got it but it’s still pretty loud.

Love the video.. try adding thermal pads next time

If i disassemble the ps4 . Take out the hard drive etc . Would i lose everytbing ? Do i need to back up first ?
No you won't lose your data
I've been sticking with Thermal Grizzly - Kryonaut 12.5 W/mk or Kryonaut Extreme 14.2 W/mk. Would recommend! (Unless you can/want to apply liquid metal)
Hi, I had a question after playing the noctua nt-h1 dough silicone on the PS4 pro, how many days should we wait or turn on the device quickly? I changed the thermal paste, but the fan made a lot of noise again.
Would be even quieter and cooler if you didn't placed your ps 4 pro vertically on the vents without a stand where the air needs to go out
Sry but it need more than only the conductive paste. So it will be not for everyone the solve
Is the thermal paste on Amazon?
THANK YOU SO MUCH, ITS SILENTTT
You couldn’t even say how to remove the battery connector properly thank you !!
Battery?
Would the same problem apply to the PS5? Mine is loud but I haven't gotten around to checking out the inside yet
The ps5 have liquid metal so in theory you'll never need to replace it
like a minute away from cleaning the fan and heatsink, q -tips would be better than a toothpick too.
cleaning the heatsink properly will allow you to do an impression of Barret from ffvii while running GoW. "can you hear that ps4 fan, revving up?" "you can hear that?" "yea" "get help"
how to check model for ps4 pro discdrive blueray
Congrats for the PS4
I enjoy your videos 👍🏻
Since you have GOLD Barr on your table you can afford to do a controller giveaway or something once in a while lol
It's actually a piggy bank 🤣
You need to clean the heat sink aswell
Oh Jeez I did everything you said and my controllers don’t work
You knocked a small cable at the front out happens alot
during game ps4 behave like a jet is very loud and my ears paing maybe thermopaste
You don't cleaned the heatsink?
Very bad.
you play it daily. noise will be back in 5days or so
I just bought mine. Refurbished PS4 pro from Best Buy. It’s already crazy loud while playing any game. It’s ridiculous. Everything is clean, properly ventilated, and still sounds like a jet engine. I should have just stuck with PC.
What if you add a cooler fan on the back how much quieter would it be?
Nothing change for me. The problem is the thermal paste.
if u added cooler fan you just build up dust
Once done repeat the process every 2 months
That's Real loud can you pls give it to me
Noctua h2 the Best 💕
Cuh 7218b ?
Lol did you really compared a cpu ihs to a ps4 pro apu? Ps4 pro is half the size of an am4 CPU. That line would have been more than enough.
The little improvement in graphics is not worth all of the hassle.
There's no solution you can change thermal paste and thermal pads and it won't help after a few months the noise comes back, this video game is totally bad proposed, I suggest selling and buying a ps5.
Lol buy a ps5 where is the same shit😂
Yo that's because number one make sure you're getting a good brand of thermal paste and number two clean the heat sink and the fan everything has to be cleaned last two three years before you have to clean it again
The ps4 pro has a pump out issue, use carbonaut thermal pads on the APU
Just turn off boost mode
you prolly bought the shittiest thermal paste if thats your case😂😂😂
It is still loud because those old PS4 pro are loud. The new PS4 pro were quieter than those but a new PS5 would still win
Ps4 slim is quiet
All i wanna know in one video
I thought that you would do liquid metal😈
I could do it, but it is too risky as the ps4 has no protection against the liquid metal spilling like the ps5
step 1 buy a ps5
All that work and such a bad job 😂
Nice quick fix then....not
Way too much paste on that chip
playing trash game.
Whatever console you have you don’t have to mess around with it trying to make it quieter? Connect to a A/V 5.1 amp & some heavy duty speakers & let the neighbour worry about the noise😵💫🫨🤡🤬🤪
look how loud it is😂😂😂😂
u mean listen not look😂
