You cant void the warrenty anymore... Due to Right to Repair and the law under The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, taking the console apart is okay. Its only voided when you break something

Yea plus eventually you will have to take it apart anyways bc these methods will eventually work less and less just due to dust clogging the cooler fins

When you take the fan off, make sure you know exactly which screw you took out and where because that same screw has to go into the same exact spot or else you’ll be sitting there for another hour or two trying to figure out where four screws go. They are all different sizes and so you don’t accidentally break anything they need to go back into the same spot!!!

Overheating ps5s ‼️🎉 pro tip. If you remove the fan you have full access to the power supply and heatsink. Heres how to fix your ps5. Which if you have a ps5 shutting off or overheating its like 90% that. Other 10% if the time the liquid metal needs spreading on the chip cause its dried up or has moved off it from gravity/ rough handling. Anyways basically unscrew the fan with a star screwdriver with a hole or use a pliers something. Get the fan out just enough to be out of the hole. Then get your flashlight and look down in the hole the fan was in. Look to see if the power supply holes are full of dust. If your ps5 is verticle its all the way at the bottom opposite the fan hole. If them tiny holes are dusted blow them out with air. Canned or compressor. If they are clogged thats usually guaranteed to shut your ps5 off from heat without even a warning many times. Then look at the heatsinks. Theres a bunch. Half the ps5 is a heatsink. Blow them out with canned air or an air compressor. Both the power supply and the heatsinks. Use a brush if you need or something similar on the heatsinks since they sometimes get real thick caked on gunk if you smoke or have pets. And thats basically it. Most of the time this fixes an overheating ps5. Or a ps5 shutting off after awhile randomly or after playing a real ps5 game which raises heat much faster.
