Why you should buy a PS4 in 2021

In my opinion, the PS4 is one of the best value gaming purchases of 2021, here's why.

I bought a 20 metre HDMI cable and put the console in my wardrobe but I guess your way is good too.

2 for 1 purchase: you get a console AND stovetop

I got a Pro on sale toward the end of 2019. It's been fantastic to catch up on all the games I missed, for a fraction of the price, fully patched and even better than when they released years ago. At this stage I might get a new TV before a new console and easily squeeze more wow factor out of this mighty machine in 4K.

If you’re looking into ps4 exclusives, you should definitely get ghost of Tsushima. It’s my favorite game of all time and would recommend it to anyone.

I still remember getting rdr2 when it released and my base ps4 sounded like a goddamn jet going through turbulence but after a full teardown and some new thermal paste it became quite quiet.

Im guessing that the vibration feature has been used for more than just gaming

For the heat/fan noise: on my PS4 pro this stopped almost completely when I just put a few pads under it and raised it half an inch. That little bit of extra airflow underneath cured it for me at zero cost.

Haven’t watched dawid in about a year, over 200k subscribers? You’ve grown your channel a lot

Love my ps4 pro. Woulda definitely upgraded to a ps5 if they were available. I do have a series x though. Was lucky enough to win it at a work event. I would have never known the glory of gamepass.

After three days of anxiously waiting for another Dawid video, it's finally here. :D

Ps4 Pro is a great console, I love mine. This was the best generation for PS by war. Such an incredible list of exclusives!!!

I got a 2nd gen PS4 Pro since 2017. Since PS5s are unrealistically priced, i spent $137 instead for a 2TB SSD upgrade + thermal pads and thermal paste. I replaced all the pads (not just the VRAMs) and the thermal paste and I gotta tell you, it's so much quieter than the day I first plugged it in when I got it. You barely hear it. The SSD is a long term investment as well. My Pro had a huge bump in performance and storage, and I can still use it on my PS5 (by the time I get my hands on one.) I mainly game on a QHD monitor and 4k HDR TV as well, so the 8k in PS5 can wait until I get an 8k display.

All in all, PS4 Pro is definitely a good value for your money still in 2021.

Finally, a ps4 disassembly video that matches my experience. The way plastic bends makes you think it's gonna snap before the hecking lid is removed. And those cursed guides only have everything popping off with barely any force.

[johndeere]

its actually interesting how well this console works after 7 years, i got my ps4 the year it came out but sadly it broke last year during lockdown

[andrewsholin]

I cleaned out and repasted my Pro a few weeks ago and can vouch that the scariest part is taking off the case.

[DrearierSpider]

Regarding the SSD, it definitely makes a difference in a lot of games, but there are also many games out there that will still have really long load times because of the horrifically slow Jaguar CPU cores.

I did actually the same last Saturday with my son´s Xbox One X. I must say Microsoft did a great job the inside of the console looks organized and the cables are tidy. Pretty easy to unscrew everything but screwing that back together was a pain in the ass (all that different screws). Now the console operates very quit and cool my son is happy and i saved money :)

Great video.👌🏼 Make sure whenever you spray compressed air into the fan, place your screw driver between the fans so the fan does not spin while cleaning 👍🏼
