Overheating my PS5 Slim on Day 1... 🤡
Рет қаралды 557,527
7 ай бұрынI Bought a PS5 Slim from eBay... what do you guys think about this console? Is it really a "slim" device? Not a huge fan of the whole disc drive situation myself, and the console just looks kinda cheap...

The thing about the slim version I'm really not happy with is the fact it still has the 6nm chip like the 1200 model, so it basically draws the same amount of power, produces the same amount of heat overall in a smaller formfactor, smaller fan and a smaller heatsink. They really should've waited for a new chip to make the slim more efficient.

The smaller fan is what scares me. When I took my old ps5 apart I remember being in awe at how chunky and solid the fan was compared to the ps4. This huge metal fan kept the ps5 cool and quiet. I think in 5 years we will see the slim ps5 getting louder whereas I think the old one will hold up.

Going from 7nm to 6nm is very easy, but going to 5nm will require redesigning at least 60% of the chip and Sony will not do that because the cost to AMD is huge.

Actually the Slim is well designed. Obviously if you know about airflow, heatsinks etc, you'd know this. The way you can take the PS5 apart to remove the drive, or fan and clean inside is smart. What was the point of turning the fan off and lastly These consoles airflow are designed so that you have it fully assembled before having it on. Just like a PC when you take the side cover off etc. Lastly, Regarding the price etc. The components are more or less the same, the ones that cost $$. APU,RAM,DRIVE. That's why. The chips are not smaller revisions.
@user-dt8mj1is4z 6 ай бұрын
The airflow around the parts disassembled is only intake so without them it is actually taking more air and this is something that was already thoroughly tested on the FAT PS5. I just think he's been unlucky and the liquid metal isn't properly applied in this unit or the heatsink isn't properly seated.

While I appreciate the smaller size of the "Slim" model, I think the inevitable PS5 Pro or whatever they end up calling it will be the one to get for owners of the OG PS5. Sony should have made the PS5 Slim similar to the PS4/PS4 Pro designs or even the Xbox One S/X or Series S/X designs. While I don't mind the PS5's design, it is definitely bizarre looking and is a bit trickier to find a place for it in your setup due to it's shape and size. However since it is so unique looking there is no mistaking it for something else which could happen with the more "generic" designs of the Xbox consoles.

I hope I am wrong but we shall see if they remake it or refresh it like the PS4 Slim.

Removing the grills at the top of the PS5 console and leaving huge gaps for the slim model is a HUGE serious concern for the following reason: DUST. A lot of people don't put a dust covers on their console when they turn it off and with the old PS5 model dust starts going into the grills (with the grills holding back most of the dust but dust still gets in) and you MUST take the plates off and clean that PS5 at least once a year (you will be surprised how much dust gets in there) or else the dust will eventually start getting into the inner parts of the console and it's going to cause problems in the future. Without the grills, the dust problem is going to get MUCH, MUCH worse and I imagine a lot of people are going to have problems with their PS5 slim models in the future since most people won't bother to take the plates off to clean it.

It seems that there is still a bit of a "fan lottery" going on with the PS5 Slim. I got a couple of CFI-2016 models over the last week and both had a pretty annoying high pitched UFO sound when in game (not coil whine - more like poor seating of the fan). The fans also look visibly different to the one you received which points towards them using different manufacturers. I'm not returning the second one because the noise is slightly more bearable than the first, but ill definitely be replacing it with a higher quality fan when they release onto the repairs market. Either that, or I might try putting some O rings on the screws to see if that nullifies some of the sound. It only bothers me because I'm used to gaming on a near-silent gaming PC and an Xbox Series X which is known to be significantly quieter than the various PS5 models overall.

The PS5 slim actually looks really cool. People have their opinions on it and I think it looks cool. It will fit perfectly on my gaming entertainment center. I get it next week. I ordered the optical disc drive since the ones with the disc drive already in is sold out so my only option was digital and order the disc drive. I don’t see a problem with that. Yes it’s a bit more but not by much. That being said, I think it looks really cool!

You should try and disconnect it as an experiment to see what would happen. I am glad I'm not one of those people who were hoping to buy slim version then by this model to find out this is the case in scenario I would be in because man it's one thing to add a hard drive that's removable, it's another thing to make it unusable years down the line if it hasn't gotten an update for it.

It could mess it up because the first time you use the disk drive you have to be connected to the Internet to register it to your PS5. So if you do it while that's going it could mess it up. 'Slim' (pun intended😁) chance but it can happen.

It’s slim enough. I’d say it’s slim where it matters: The length and depth. I have a low profile tv stand and when I pull the standard ps5 a few inches from the wall to allow for better ventilation, the game console is right on the edge of my tv stand. My shelves are also not very wide, so the ps5 takes up so much space that there’s no room on the side to dock controllers. My One X is on the shelf below, and the shelf is the exact same size and there’s plenty of room to dock a couple of Xbox controllers next to it. So yeah, this console is now slim enough for me that I can finally fit a controller dock next to it. I don’t think both look better standing vertical but I don’t have a setup that lets me do that without obstructing some of the view of the tv. So, this ps5 should be perfect for my needs
