3 Reasons Your PS4 is Overheating (and 3 Quick Fix Tips!)

In this video I share 3 reasons as to why a PlayStation 4 may be overheating, as well as a bonus 3 quick tips that should help fix the problem.

Let me know in the comments if a fan stand works if you already own one, I'm super curious!

When I turn on my ps4 my ps4 turns into a Jet pack rocket

I like how he went straight to the point thx

I opened mine up and changed the thermal paste of the CPU, now it’s way quieter.
It was surprising because the application of the original thermal paste was gross, it spilled out of the CPU and hardly covered it. I recommend anyone having issues with their loud PS4 to open it and replace the thermal paste. It’s not extremely hard, just follow a tutorial and your PS4 will be good as new.

"Ill put that description in the link below" 😂 i laughed at this for too long

I’ve cleaned my PS4 however as soon as I start up call of duty MW it just overheard and switches off straight away
Edit: I’ve had ps5 for about 5 months now and it’s amazing I recommend it

My PS4 has literally overheated like 50 times today thanks for this video

Thanks man. My wife leaves stuff on top of the PS4, and my kids like to leave it on Rest mode. I tell everyone not to do either. It finally overheated for the first time. I’m gonna get the vertical stand

[Au-llyo]

Your style of raising the topic is very beautiful and simplified ... Thank you for your time... good luck

For me, I think the vertical stand ia much better than not using a stand, cause using the vertical stand makes more surface area exposed to surrounding air like a convection from air which can make it more cooler compared to just laying it on flat, what I am trying to say is there is more convection going on on the surfaces of the unit which means there is greater heat transfer going on, bcause I believe the ambient air would be much more cooler than the inside parts..

Am I the only one but why does he look like an older version of bugha? 😂

I’ve literally had the PS4 pro for one year. Used it six times and it started that overheating shit! And from what I’m reading this is a very widespread issue. Something that cost that much should not perform like this. I’ve also owned both versions of the Xbox. I have never had any issues with them! Anyone else going through this, or am I the only one?

I confirm that the stands with the fans work! My PlayStation was getting a bit louder than usually and so I got the fan and it helps the fan quiet down a bit and also keeps it from over heating

[josheyb]

It's been so hot these past few days and my PS4 almost never overheats but yesterday and today its been overheating whenever I play a game

[shrekwazowski]

My ps4 has never overheated until these past few days now and it overheats so much now... I’ve had the ps4 since it came out

[robertkvasnika]

I don't have a ps4 yet but when I bought a stand to put my ps3 in a vertical position it made a HUGE difference in the temperature of the console. When you leave your console horizontally the space between the console and the table or furniture its on is very small and the heat can't dissipate well but putting your console in a vertical position fixes that big time.

[esdrasfelix]

I have the vertical stand that has fans in it, plus an additions stand fan next to it . makes a lot of difference it doesn't heat up as it did before

its august and this was made in may. And this still replying to people who comment down below. I Like that, keep grinding. there are youtubers who don't reply after like a week

After my new PS4 Slim's first five days of life with me, I decided to replace its original drive with 1TB SSD because it was hot as flat iron, and it loads like ridiculous 1 to 3 hours. Now, it feels warm to touch, and it loads faster. Plus, I installed detachable cooling fan on the back of it. The upgrade that I did was like buying disc version of PS5 already. I'll give PS5 a pass for now because getting it is like going to a destination where a vertical cliff is only way to get there. The moment PS4 stops working after 4 to 5 years, I will buy PS5 or PS6, instead of repair. My PS4 Slim is a gift to myself, in memory of pandemic. 😁😄😆🤣😘🤭 I bought it last November 15, 2020.
