can we appreciate the fact that he's telling us straight what the topic is about and not go off topic to get the 10 minute videos??
awesome and yet simple way to help with the ps4 performance ^^

No, “we” can’t. I can respect people who get straight to the point, so that I have the information I want, and then they go on, babbling, through ten minutes, to screw TH-cam, while I go check out the tip, as the video runs. So, while _you_ might be able to appreciate blah, blah, blah... _we cannot,_ because _I_ can’t - and there’s no “I,” in “we!”

I've tried this before but always, shortly after plugging it back in, it starts talking to me again. Telling me things. Secret things. Scary things. Exciting things.....
LOL this comment matched with the channel pic has me dying man omg hahahahhahaha
This deserves way more likes
Very funny comment! Thank you for the laugh.

Lol
"Pull out"
As always, best advice in the world!
A shame ur father didn't know of it
Brutal comment 😂
@@levi7800 Woah woah woah that was uncalled for man lol but still funny 😂😂
Kaneki OMG 😆 insane comeback
@@levi7800 hahaha
Tried this on my Clio, now she drives at 300kmh easy
LMAO
The power of PlayStation.
I wonder what my 2017 GTI Clubsport (seen at my Channel) would do in that case.. Since the speedometer already reads 280... And i push that to spell your words: EASY. Why you ask: Well Heres the Ultimate Enlightment for ya: it has the same EA888 engine Iand IS38 turbo as the one who snapped the World Record in Nurbergring Germany prooving grounds... Your sure welcome to compete me there with your little Clio my friend..... Muahahahaha. 👍 😄 👍
cheto
Ha
So the old “Unplug it and then plug it in again” technique becomes useful yet again.
TwilightLeaf 😂😂
thanks for video summary
Tried and true. And testament of the innovation of man.
dads dream 😂
Yep it’s worked all my life except when my wii crashed 😔😢😭
IT WORKS! After I did this my PS4 turned into a PS5! Thank you so much!
LOL that's good one
Haha thats funny
Wait serious?
@@amiegirl6479 Im assuming not
@@hikaruu4343 oh lol i was trying to ask if performance actually gets better not if it actually turns into ps5 performance or something like that
So all this time, my PS4 has been so sluggish just because I didn't unplug it.... And plug it back in...... Thank you for informing me of this!
Defragging works too. Put it in safe mode and then use the HDD defrag tool.
Remember to wait 30 seconds
Well this is basic knowledge for a lot of devices, to empty all the energy from the components except my PS4 Pro is pointless since all I could do to fix is switch from the HDD to SSD as that's what makes the biggest difference, specially when installing some small updates for some games like GT Sport that takes 4 ever as it's probably a lot compressed and the menu is all stuck
@@JohnGlasscock
Why wait 30 seconds? How can the console run a process with no power?
Unplugging a PS4 is not a requirment to clear the cache memory unless you have residual power issues. Another wives tales of performance solutions and technically incorrect. Perform a cold "hard boot" and don't use sleep mode, as the PS4 OS does not use the mode correctly or properly.
I really love videos like this, because you get straight to the point and nothing else.
If it's convenient with your home setup, you should disconnect from the wall instead of the console itself. Either way, it works the same. Most people do not know that this is how you clear the cache memory on your Playstation console. Thanks for watching! Feedback is appreciated
Thanks brother
Rebuild database, yeah you should have explained this a bit more, if your not using a standard ps4 controller and don't have one you shouldn't do this, after you try to pair ur controller ie not a standard ps4 controller it will not pair there for you need to have a standard ps4 controller 👌
John Glasscock how do you know it’s actually cleaning/cleaned out the cache when you unplug it for thirty seconds
@@YoungVicGi because if you look it up on Google you will see that this is accurate information
John Glasscock alright cool just didn’t know plus I watch all your videos bro and you usually explain everything in good detail like saying you can look said said on google. Preciate the responds
I’m so glad this video is only about 2 minutes and you didn’t go on to tell us your life story and you get straight to the point.
A power strip surge protector is very useful for this tip. You just use it’s own power switch and it’s even a beneficial protection from power surges and thunderstorms.
Wow thank you John. This really helps when someone is willing to help others out!
One of the best youtubers to make tips about playstation
Thanks man
i love these kinds of video, never have a clicked on a video this quick 😂 amazing tips glasscock

“Have you tried turning off and on again?” - IT crew
now does that completely drain the Motherboard of residual power?...
WOW! I'm gonna subscribe now John!
Thanks for the quickie
Thx, I was playing games this whole time without it being plugged in. Helped alot thx
Absolutely. Plugging it back in will definitely speed up your load times. :-)
I clear my cache every month when I open my PS4 Pro to clean out the dust from the fans, heatsink and motherboard.
Tbh im scared to clean the heat sink lol.
Sounds like a pain in the arse. But very good practice and a good thing to do. For sure. I suppose after doing it every friggen month you'd get pretty dang good at it and fast as well too. Especially since it shouldn't be too hard to clean since you do it so often though :) nice. Lol I should too. :/ too afraid to though because I've done things with computers and consoles like that before and totally f*cked it up and needed to take it in to an actual pro tech person. Lol but yeah :P my mind doesn't work technologically with technology and electronics. Same with mechanics w/ cars and such :P lol x/
@@vexthegreat9453 same. Haha I'm right there with you. Lol
@@levidavis1093 yes, it's a very labor-intensive process. It's very easy to misplace screws and such but I like to take good care of my electronics 🤗
@@khmerutube true. Haha yeah I get ya. :)
Oh wow! It actually does run a lil better now! Thank you!!
thx man im going to buy an ps4 slim in a couple days and this is a good tip thanks!!
Good to know. Also, like that you’re straight to the point.I’ve hadn’t had to worry about this with my ps4 (barely got one a couple of months ago so haven’t played it lately). I do this with my Xbox, especially when apps act wonky, or the audio in a game is very choppy. Usually fixes it.
This does work I thought everybody knew already lol
Pretty neat and so damn simple! Well done 👍
I just love how every video of his sounds like crude vodoo magic but he actually provides useful tips.
Thank you for the support
Basically when you pull out the cable the circuit stem of wire in ps4 releases the heat and the atmosphere in ps4 motherboard gets cool and its fixed again properly
Its tragic that such a helpful person can have such an unfortunate name.
Don't hate on the glasscock clan lol
Glasscock for life
smokeldogg hilarious
@Andrew.
Don’t do a Google search for Glasscock; your Mom might find it and think you’re gay.

This helped me I was shocked thank you so much
Keep making PS4 tip videos they help out alott 💪
Daaaaaammmmnnnn I'm just now seeing this.... I've never turned mines off, constantly in rest mode...lol and lately it's been crashing like crazy thanks
I literally unplug my ps4 when I'm done using it. So this is good to know
Love your vids keep it man you are telling me a lot about this idk all about ps4 thanks a lot😊
Bro you keep popping up in my youtube wormhole, and your videos are pretty decent, I've tried most of your techniques and most of them work so I'm definitely going to subscribe too now 🤣👌
Ha ha. Love this ''PO PO PO PO PEACE'' 😂👍
Is it work if unplug other end of cable
Yes
:D
this comment is great lol
LoL

So Easy and yet so Simple as well 'Thank you John 😁 that deserves a Sub.
It’s funny how I do this on so many of my electronics, but never thought of my sweet ps4 pro. Worked great! Great videos. Scribed

*"Do you know that plugging the AC Power Cord in makes your PS4 run better?"*
😱
Ohhh my GOD
That explains why mine runs like crap. Power cable was not even connected.
When counting be hard yo...... Ha ha..... :-) Cool Tip though..... I'll have to try it.
Thank you bro that other stuff with the black screen and rebuilding data base that really worked to!
Glad it helped
You rock. I'm subbing. Looking forward to all the troubleshooting you do for the PS5!
Thanks man
I started doing this a month ago to see if it can have an effect. Thanks for further confirmation that I was nae just imagining things.
It is legit, look it up, you're not imagining things
This actually erase my whole day save file.
I played 5 hours of 2 games July 5 and when I turn PS4 back on and did this trick of yours my save files took me back to July 4.
So you lost data?
@@speedlunary797 I lost my save file data of what I played.
Thanks it really works I was so shocked
Thanks this video saved a few hundred bucks
And I always thought Activision was making this up
Yeah considering they really like to make things up
When did they say that?
@@saadkhalid7734 everytime you live chat with them for anything related to online gameplay. They are trained to suggest it though they have no idea why lol
Every week day, after switching the console off, I remove the plug at the wall socket to disconnect from the mains supply for nine hours while out at work. Even though I have surge protection!
Does this have the same effect, as there is no voltage linked to the console?
8-bit pepe Thought so! Cheers for the heads up 👍🏼
Yes
Make sure u shut off the PlayStation correctly then unplug it. It a low chance but happened to me twice on PS4 and XBOX One. The thing that happens is it’ll have a weird screen and won’t let u go back. I think PS4 tells u that u could go back but it won’t let u. So you’ll have to rest ur console. Just make sure u turn the console off correctly then unplug it
My PS4 Slim is too new to have these problems, but it's always nice to know what to do to keep them clean
I love these videos man you’re killing it with the tips and tricks right now. Keep it up 👍
Thanks man
Wow its no one knew that unplugging things and then plugging then back in makes it work better 😲
Another tip is to tap the prongs of the plug against a piece of wood to discharge the static electricity buildup. Might as well do it at the same time as the cache clean-up.
How is any of this verified? And if this really does work why isn’t it being spread out more?
IT WORKSS I ALSO TRIED IT WITH MY GRANDPA'S LIFE SUPPORT AND IT ALSO WORKED!! VERY HANDY THANKYOU
Im glad he's alive and well. He must feel better now
Nice tip thanks man 👊
Thanks for this video! I will try it on my older than perhaps SLIM. Boost, defrag and speed is always win win
Hey John can you give someone tips on internet speed connection please :(
I think you just unplug your router and bam and back in again and you have fibre lol
Get better internet
Limit bandwidth for other users, reset router, set up static ip for your pc or console, use it wired, use high quality cords because cheap ones can impact the performance, use cable or fiber internet if possible (compared to mobile data, satellite internet), and if playing wireless make sure there are very little obstructions or interference. I send my best of wishes.
@@Eggy824 That's not an option for somebody
Try changing your DNS Server settings to Google.
Primary DNS: 8.8.8.8
Secondary DNS: 8.8.4.4
Can't you just clear out the catche in the systems menu without having to physically unplug the console
No
Awesome video bro , once again thanks....!
thanks for the tip. also quick question: why do u got two ps4s? saw u have the pro stacked right above the original
He didnt know that this automaticly happens every hour for ps4 players in lebanon lol
It'd be funny if an Xbox player was recommended this.Also,thanks for the video. I actually did this yesterday unknowingly cause I transported my ps4 a couple times.
Xbox One automatically does this when restarting lmao
I've been wondering if clearing the cache data on a ps4was possible. Bro, you the man. This is seriously going to save a lot of people's PS4s if it hasn't already.
Simple to the point, smart!
You remind me of Millhouse from the Simpsons 🤓
🤣🤣🤣
Would switching the power supply off at the plug not do the same thing?
Hey John, great tip. As always. Quick question, how can I remove a cupple scratches that I made to my console? Nothing serious, just because the controller or cables
Absolutely straight to the point
When i want to play i just plug the ps4 and when i am done i just unplug it and put it somewhere elese.
so whenever i want to play i reconnect so i have no issues with my ps4 and its fast.I have fat original model.
anyway awesome vid gr8 tip.

I really appreciate your concise videos - they're very useful and easy to watch. I just wish that I knew what that last thing you say at the end of each video was..?!! >
You don't need to do this the cache is always being refreshed when changing to another game an stuff
The Anime Otaku but not everyone has physical disks
They should update it so it does that automatically like xbox does when you restart it fully
Source?
@@Viper3870750 ?
CL Rice he wants a source that explains and shows that’s what Xbox actually does.
Sony doesn't want you to do that; they prefer that you buy a new PS4 instead. ;-P
@@Viper3870750 yeah it's actually true lmao stop being a playstation fanboy and accept that it has it's flaws
Cool videos man!
Ha never knew about that,thx!
This just is making fun of everyone with he's thumbnails and "Tricks"
Tip for anyone having the “rocket ship” issue, take it in for a professional clean and new thermal paste. Mine is running like new now. $50 is well worth it.
What's the rocket ship issue?
Fitz Aran Well my friend, your console collects dust/hair and other small particles at a fairly excessive rate. Over time this changes the foundation of the PlayStation causing it to morph into a space ship capable of traversing far universes.
Why 50$
Or do that yourseld save money lol!
VexTheGreat 94 Yes true but to the average guy, this is a much better option. I took mine part the day before cleaned it and still had issues. Not to mention the power supply plug felt like they super glued it in.. taking the top cover off was a fun time as well. Lastly to get under the motherboard to replace the thermal paste felt too sketchy for me. $50 is completely worth it, I felt like I under paid.
Bro you're literally a hero
Thanks dude you helped me a lot my PS4 is working much better
Is it me or are PlayStation videos or in right now
Any proof to this?

I did this and went to my storage right after and I watched my free space go up a little bit it wasn't much but it proves that this works
Geez it worked lol! Quick question thoug, how good is the MixAmp for Astros? Temped to buy it beacuse of the 7.1 sound.
so today my PS4 had a bad day today and my applications were crashing. tried reinstalling them but nothing worked until I found this video. thank you so much
