    Followed this guys instructions and this genuinely worked, I couldn't stand how much noise my ps4 made while playing red dead. There wasn't much dust in there but what came out really has made a difference. I can still hear the fan working but I can at least here the dialogue now

    DO NOT REMOVE THE POWER SUPPLY FROM THE MOTHERBOARD.
    THE CONNECTION PINS CAN BE DAMAGED OR RIPPED OFF.
    It is not needed if it is just a simple cleaning and it risks pulling the connection pins off the motherboard itself.

    I don't think I would remove the power cable. From what I can see and have read in the comments, it's too easy to break it, especially in comparison to the PS3 slim. So I would leave it attached in my case. I wouldn't be using a vacuum either but instead, an air compressor. Way easier to blast away the dust on the fan and heatsink.

    I've cleaned my fan, it's hard to get all the gunked dust of the fan blades, and alot of it falls under neath. My CD player won't work not as a result of my cleaning, it's got the disc not recognised problem and no common fixes will work,. But I nowadays after being sick of the noise and the console over heating and thus causing games to crash more often, I now just play with the lid off, the sound difference is unreal and yes the console is then exposed to more dust. But the PS4 pro is so loud, once you take the lid off, after 20 seconds it goes so quiet. Funny when I first got the pro I remember thinking how quiet it wascompared to other console I'd had, then after about 3 months, it sounded like it was taking off to the moon.

    • @YesterdaysTech
      @YesterdaysTech  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If a mini vacuum cleaner is the handheld type, that won’t do much and is not powerful enough if your PS4 Pro got some really amount of dust in there. If you check this video th-cam.com/video/82V_kWSkgHA/w-d-xo.html you can see the large amount of dust is stuck on the other side of radiator so unless you wanna fully disassembly it, you need a powerful vacuum cleaner. If you’re ready for a complete teardown, then you don’t need a vacuum at all

    I just got a pro a few weeks ago, 2 of the screws on the power supply piece are stripped out, any tip on how to get them out? I was trying to get inside to get to the radiator and make sure there isn’t dust and clean it out but now I can’t because of those screws. I think GameStop probably went inside of it and cleaned it before they resold it and stripped a few screws in the process 🤷‍♂️ it does look cleaned from what I can see but I still like to do it myself to make sure ya know

      It’s pretty hard to deal with damaged screws, try using a rubber band, maybe it helps the screwdriver to unlock it

    That was not really clean though. So much dust left inside. Fan was supposed to be out completely and thoroughly cleaned. Also the main point of doing this is to make the console as efficient and silent as possible which you can obtain only by having a high quality thermal paste applied which didn’t. Hopefully that worked for you but people should know this is not the way to clean things. Good luck

      Oh c'mon the video is about cleaning the system. It's obvious that paste replacement can be the issue, but in most cases it's simply the dust, especially inside cooler. This covers that _really_ well.

    Thanks man! Cleaned it with the kids helping.
    One thing, while Pwrspply out of the way, hold vaccum cleaner with broader tip above fan, directed at an angle. At the same time blow air through grills, to clean them. Fan does not suck air from the back, but blowa is oyt the back. So radiator grills are congested from inside. When you vacuum from the PS side you just draw dirt deeper into grills.

    If your shit over heating but some canned air and spray the sides and the fan but make sure to do it outward so your not blowing the dust into the console then buy a mini table fan for 10$ at Walmart and put it facing your ps4 right side where the fan is and it woll never over heat again
