In this video, test the noise output of the new PlayStation 5 Slim at boot-up, idle, starting a game, inserting a game disc, booting up a game from disc, and ejecting disc. If you would like see my first video showcasing a lot of details of the PS5 Slim, check this video here: • PlayStation 5 Slim 1TB...
Some more information to know that may be helpful to others;
I've tested over 6 different model PS5 Slims over the past 3 months, and the majority of the fans that are tolerable in noise have a DR code on the fan housing, the ones with a D1 code appear to be quietest but hard to get. There is one model, with a code M1 that was for sure the loudest of them all, and that fan literally sounded like a blower motor fan from PS4. So I'd say the DR is the most common, and the D1 is the quietest. You will see the code at the lower left portion of the fan housing when removing the panel that allows you to install an SSD.
*Another Update
I made an updated version of the PS5 Slim Fan Noise comparison test, this time a PS5 slim using the NMB model fan, along with my PS5 Phat, and Xbox Series X. This 3 way video comparison can be seen here:

@LousWRX

@MKDosani I would say yes. Anytime you start a game, the fan will ramp up in speed, and when you completely exit the game, the fan will go back to idle speeds. My PS5 Phat 1215A model did the exact same thing.

It is louder but you can already tell that slim is better, slim here in Poland has 2 years warranty, OG ps5 has only 1 year, slim is louder because i guess they decided to increase fan speed a little bit just too make sure that slim will last for long, i heard that many og ps5’s are breaking shorty after warranty or heat problems, tbh with you i prefer higher noise and longer life span of the console

Many people say PS5 slim is louder than 12XX model. PS5 OG is 7 nano and 12XX is 6 nano, and PS5 slim is 6 nano. So it is natural that PS5 slim is louder than 12XX because PS5 slim has the same 6 nano and smaller space for cooling.

I appreciate you putting out a video like this because my Slim has the same problem as yours, especially when the game starts. That sound sounds like an airplane taking off. But I need to figure out how to fix it because I've searched for ages without a satisfactory answer. I'm sure the fan is the problem, but I don't know if they'll come out with a new update to remedy this, which means I'll be left with the cost of replacing the fan. Would you happen to know of any way to fix it? (Please excuse my not-so-good English because it's not my first language)

Well, unfortunately, that amount of fan noise is how even my previous PS5 Phat 1215A model was. So all I can say is, that is just how they all sound when in a game. In comparison, my Xbox Series X makes almost no noise entirely, just a gentle whish air flow, but much quiter. By the way, your English is perfect, I understood you perfectly, and it's better than some people who actually natively speak English.

Yeah, sometimes you get lucky with the original PS5 Phat and get one that exhibits minimum noise, while others can be the quite opposite. What I've noticed is that the Slim seems to match the level of my previous PS5 1215A Phat model, but while there, there are still some slight differences in coil whine levels. But if you're OG PS5 is dead silent and no issues, then just stick with, and just make sure you prevent any dust build up with regular dust maintenance when needed.

Got a ps5 slim disc, noise from the drive was too much for me. Sold it and got a ps5 slim digital, the fan noise was bad again, so i returned it in exchange for another one. Hasn't been as bad, guess it's normal for the console to sound louder when the game starts. Is a little annoying though. How do people stop focusing on the fan? The OG models don't seem to be as loud.

Yeah, I think there are about 5 different fan models on the PS5 Slim. I know there are 2 specific ones that are horribly noisy, and there are 2 tolerable and / or similar to the PS5 Phat, along with one model (it has a D1 code on the fan housing) that is nearly silent. But they all spin up when starting a game. That's just how the PS5 functions to keep temperatures in check.

It could potentially be a bit louder since the disc drive isn't exactly bolted down like PS5 Phat model, same for the amount of noise when the disc is spinning. But I wouldn't call it unbearable in any way.

1. When you download game from disc it is VERY noisy. 2. I have mine horizontally cause Ive heard its recommended plus all vertical pieces are sold out where I live. BUT THE DISC DRIVE IS SO ANNOYING when horizontal cause its like hidden under a part sticking out so its a bit clunky putting in and taking out discs. And its a bit slanted downwards. Clear they intended it for it be vertical.

I've become used to mine, but sometimes, when gaming and I my volume on the TV down, it can be a bit intrusive.

Yeah, it is normal. There are some models that are actually louder, it all depends on which fan model the PS5 slim comes with.

@Emax297 I've tested over 6 different model PS5 Slims over the past 3 months, and the majority of the fans that are tolerable in noise have a DR code on the fan housing, the ones with a D1 code appear to be quietest but hard to get. There is one model, I can't remember exactly what code it has, but a letter with a number 2 on it, and that fan literally sounded like a blower motor fan from PS4. So I'd say the DR is the most common, and the D1 is the quietest. You will see the code at the lower left portion of the fan housing when removing the panel that allows you to install an SSD.

Sounds like a lawnmower which is sadly to be expected. Sony just makes really loud consoles. Ps4 was also a lawnmower. They clearly made no consideration to acoustics when coming up with the weird design (og fat model included). Putting aside exclusives and how you might feel about Microsoft or sony as companies, Xbox is clearly the superior piece of hardware. That thing is almost silent, which is huge to me. When I’m playing a game in my small room without headphones, I want to hear the game, not my console. People who say the ps5 is quiet must just be sitting 15ft away from their console in a large open room while wearing headphones with the volume cranked to max. Ps5 (both models) are anything but quiet.

You might want to check the removable panels if any of them got a little loose. I noticed that when taking them off, sometimes it takes a few extra presses when putting them back on to secure them firmly to the system.

@GtaTryhardsAreWeird Got it. Yeah, if you are referring to coil whine, then just about every PS5 exhibit that noise, some louder than others. There are a few different fan manufacturers that do make a little less noise. For the PS5 slim, the Foxconn are supposedly the quietest of them all.

No, the difference in heat output has been tested on 2 different channels right now. But for a more in-depth analysis, I'd wait for the Gamersnexus / Digitalfoundry KZfaq channels videos to better understand in detail the differences. But in comparison to my previous PS5 1215A model, I'm not noticing any noticeable increase in noise or temperatures thus far.

@cesar915 The slight coil whine is definitely still there, but again, not obnoxiously loud by any means. And yeah, my Series X is also whisper quiet, mainly because it uses a 130MM Fan VS, the smaller 90-85MM fan of the Phat and slim models, the bigger fans create more airflow at much lower speeds.

@Larry-um6tx I personally wouldn't consider it coilwhine, as in a gaming PC, it is a lot louder and annoying if you have a GPU that exhibits the noise, but all I can say is the noise output is totally none issue. It is as quiet as it needs to be without sounding like jet engine (aka PS3 Phat or PS4 PRO with old thermal paste / dust buildup.

@daniloapi Yeah, it can be annoying in a quiet room. But if you are running something like the heat, a fan, or some other background noise, it definitely does lessen the noise. I'm glad it is quiet at idle, though, so if I'm downloading a new game or uploading a video to KZfaq, I don't have to be bothered by anything.

I bought the slim with MW3. Got all the COD/Warzone stuff downloaded. Also Horizon Forbidden West, Hogwarts Legacy, and Elden Ring. Have played them all and it runs quiet and smooth for me. The one thing that makes me paranoid is that in the back where the USB ports are, there's a lot of heat. Like, I'm still using my Turtle Beach 600 headset that needs to have the USB stick in to use and when I pull the stick out, it's quite hot to hold. Can anyone tell me if that's normal or should I be concerned about anything? I'm not the smartest when it comes to this technology stuff. Lol.
@LousWRX
@LousWRX 7 ай бұрын
I'm pretty sure it is normal for it to be pretty warm at the back of the PS5 as that is where all the heat exits the system. Just make you have plenty of space in back of the PS5 for the heat to escape and not have it closed off, as that will trap a lot more heat. I also have a USB headset that plugs into the rear USB port, but I can definitely say the cable was never hot to the touch, just warm, but I also have an open space in the rear of my entertainment center for the heat to leave the area. But I have heard stories of the rear USB plugs getting pretty hot during long gaming sessions, so again just make sure there is plenty of breathing room for air to come in and go out, and I don't think you'll have anything to worry about. Hopefully, that helps out a little.

@@LousWRX thank you. That does give me some reassurance. This is my first PS5. Get a little paranoid when I dump a bunch of money into something like that. Lol. The PS5 sits on a table by itself next to the TV. So it has plenty of breathing room. Just found it odd how much heat was coming out the back and how hot the USB stick gets. Never had that issue with the PS4. But of course, the USB port was in the front on the PS4. Thank you again.
