I personally have a dust cover on mine, it was around $20 off of Amazon where it goes over the middle portion of the console while simultaneously allowing the same amount of airflow.

    Its important to keep your system clean and ventilated of course but it shouldnt require you to take the system apart to prevent it from overheating on certain games. That would be unacceptable from a design perspective if it required you to disassemble the fan every year to prevent certain games from over heating the system. The system should be able to handle some dust build up and compensate with the fan speed accordingly.

    Taking the cover off and removing a fan to clean it every month is an insane maintenance schedule. I've had my PS5 nearly a year now and I've never taken the cover off. I also shouldn't have to. At most, Sony should build them with removable filters that slide out without removing the case side, and those should get cleaned or replaced every 6 months or less often.

    A note about vertical placement. The way the air vent is shaped leaves the vent holes for the psu on the “floor” inside the channel. It’s on the wall when laid horizontally but vertically it ends up on the bottom. Over time dust will lay there and pretty quickly can be clogged in completely. I’ve fixed half a dozen ps5s that were shutting down due to psu overheat and those holes were the culprit every time. If you’re gonna have it vertical blow that shit out bimonthly

    I would recommend not using compressed air for the following reasons There are a few things to watch out for: Avoid spraying the refrigerant liquid, which can happen if you shake the can, or angle it too much. The refrigerant is very cold, so can damage some sensitive electronic components on the pcb I would recommend air blower from places like amazon or ebay with no liquid and are rechargeable 😁👍

    I have a random one in case anyone finds the information helpful. If you have a traditional HDD always hooked up in a port at the back to play your PS4 games and you get random shut offs or overheating then try it without the external HDD. I used to use a 4TB ext HDD for PS4 games and had no problems, however I saw a special on a 5TB external HDD one day and decided to get that. I found that the power draw and heat on that new HDD I had specifically seemed to cause my PS5 to shut down a lot, but I didn't make the connection at the time and almost sent the console in for repair. As soon as I went back to the old HDD and subsequently a portable SSD I never had any more overheating problems

    Some people, my good friend included, are having issues with the console shutting off. They do not receive a “Your PS5 is too hot” message, and it doesn’t even seem hot. I’ve troubleshooted with him and, being a subscriber to your channel, thought I could help.
    After giving it a thorough cleaning we experimented with horizontal/vertical placement, plugging the power directly into the wall, and clearing cache/rebuilding the database. It’s led me down some Google search rabbit holes. A few Reddit users pointed out this same problem only happens when they play PS5 games. Lately, like you’ve pointed out, big new powerful games such as Diablo and Final Fantasy have released and it’s these games he’s had issues with, not PS4 titles. It’s been said that these consoles with this issue may have faulty GPU’s. That seems like a tough pill to swallow. PlayStation support does fixes for like $200. I want to help him because man, that just seems like a tough deal.
    Not sure if anyone will read this comment or if it will help anyone, just thought I’d throw it out into the universe. Much love!

    The power supply is likely the key problem. The good news is: I recently disassembled and cleaned my entire PS5 and while there was dust on the the PSU vents, it was not clogged. Note: I have a dusty apartment and let the PS5 stand vertically since November 2020.
    Keeping the PS5 horizontal, in an open place and possibly a disassembled cleaning of the fins, fan and PSU every ~3 years will probably be good enough. One might even look into getting an extra long straw for a compressed air can, taking the fan out and then attempting to blow out the PSU vents from the fan cavity (see view in the video).
    One more thing: users might be more inclined to stand their PS5 horizontally id they have doubts about liquid metal on the heat dissipation plate above the CPU or if they do run a long hours of true PS5 gen games.

    Honestly just remove both stock faceplates. You can easily do that to ensure maximum airflow and heat reduction. Once every couple weeks just take the hose of your vacuum and clean any dust by gently running it along all sides of your system paying particular attention to the fan locations. Sure, it doesn't look pretty without the faceplates, but it's super effective.

    1 - The PS5 in horizontal position makes no difference, and it has already been proven. After all, the console was designed to be in a vertical position.
    2 - Performance mode - this has nothing to do with temperature. Even though the CPU won't be pushed to deliver graphics, it will be to deliver double the frames per second.

      Hardware experts from console repair shops are telling a different story:
      According to 68Logic, a PlayStation scene member who owns a hardware repair shop in France since 2010, using your PS5 vertically can damage it permanently, and he’s seen the result first hand with his clients’ consoles. Apparently the seal around the cooling material over the chip can degrade and it can leak away causing the system to overheat. Whereas lying flat keeps it in place, and that's why ppl are finding this solution clears up the overheating problem.

    I've had a PS5 for 4 months now and I haven't cleaned it once. It turned off on its own once and then I wasn't sure if it was because of the settings or because it was really overheating, which was almost impossible since I just got it and was just downloading some games. I have it vertically next to my TV with only a few centimeters between it and the wall and lots of cables. A few times I felt if a lot of hot air came out, which was not the case and I don't really see much dust from the outside either. I had no issues with the PS4 Pro either. The PS4 is known for blowing really hard, and I've had it in a small case for 5 years. It was only after those 5 years that it started blowing concerningly hard and failing when loading advanced games which are also for the PS5. Then I cleaned it for the first time and there wasn't even that much dust in it. So I think people with a PS5 that overheats must have a lot of dust on their desk or something like that.

    I think getting people to disconnect their fans with that tiny little plastic connector will cause more problems than it will fix. That little plastic plug is very brittle especially after it ages. It's not meant to be taken apart 12 times a year as you are suggesting. But to each their own. I've had my PS5 since launch and cleaned it for the first time yesterday. In a Dusty room with pets. It sits vertical and has the entire time. I have not had an issue yet nor any overheating. It was barely even Dusty. Maybe I'm lucky but still I've never had to take any console apart like you are here. To be fair though if I was having overheating problems I would definitely consider taking a part and thoroughly cleaning the machine but if you have to do that once a month just to keep it running there is something else wrong. It's not the Dust. These things are meant to run with some dust. I personally think it might be Sony trying to save money and going with a smaller heat sink and maybe those are the machines having a problem overheating with these newer games. Developers are now starting to push the hardware. But I say tear apart your PS5 at your own risk. If you are not having any problems with it I would not take the fan out.

    Me and my friends have all been getting overheating problems on old and new PS5‘s. After taking it apart we all discovered the same thing: the liquid metal was completely uneven. After respreading it the PS5 was back to normal, even after intense performance testing the cooler was as quiet as on day 1.
    For MOST of you guys, you do not need to clean your ps5 if it’s visually clean (no signs of dust accumulation). You also do not need any external products. The PS5 is easily capable of running high-end games on maximum graphics but the LIQUID METAL FLAW is significant.
    Legal action needs to be taken since we are very sure this is the main problem for all the overheating issues. Sony did answer but they do not care and offered a $300 repair after sending them the pictures.

      Its a known thing that using Liquid Metal Cooling was a massive design over-sight but thats nothing that can be sued over since Sony was very open about the systems specs. Since it was first announced people were critical of the Liquid Metal cooling and how outdated it was and the amount of issues it would cause later down the line.

    The Power Supply irradiates too much heat, they should revisit the build and isolate it with an independent fan so the grills at the bottom only vent out hot air from it, the tiny honeycomb window is not sufficient to keep it from reaching over 60C.
    Thats why systems usually turn off after 2-3 hours at 28C.
    If they add a 7.5cm fan as intake from one of the sides that would solve all overheating problems not related to liquid metal dry up.

    I really like your channel, it has helped me. Luckily, I haven't delt with overheating and I've had my PS5 for a little over a year.

    I've only had my PS5 since August, but it hasn't had this issue. Maybe because it's horizontal and in a relatively open space, but I feel like if you need to clean the fans once a month, you need to start with dusting the space the console is in. If you keep the place pretty clean, I don't think you should have too many issues.

    Hi, i'm an engineer and i'll give you a good tip on how to prevent overheating and how ive done it. Ive placed 3 fans on the back of the ps5 (where the ports hdmi and usb are), they suck the hot air from the ps5 vents and release it outward fast. Just do it on your own, these pre-made fans with usb post don't work well. 3 fans, high speed. A little noisy but your ps5 will stay cool and won't shut down, also, you want to keep your ps5 horizontally, always. Keeping clean the ps5 is obviously a must.

    Needing to do frequent critical cleaning of a PS5 seems like a critical design flaw. I've seen PS4's in absolutely dusty ass homes that never needed cleaning. Since when should consoles more than rarely require critical cleaning of any kind? I've never had to clean any console extensively, usually just a good rub with wipes every few months was fine and the console's ventilation was designed in such a way where it rarely required such cleaning.

    The issue is having the ps5 standing up. It's promoted standing up but it's not a good idea to have it like that because the thermal paste will start being pulled down from the heat and gravity doing its thing. This will cause it to turn off because the paste is no longer there to do its job. Ofc clean it but it's the thermal paste and keep it laying down to ensure it stays in the area it needs to be until time to replace it.
