PS4 Slim- Disassembling, Cleaning, Thermal Paste And Thermal Pads Replacement

Рет қаралды 28,531

Күн бұрын

I've been using my PS4 Slim extensively for the past 3 years, it serves me well and i didn't face any overheating issues. But as rule of thumb it's a good idea to change the thermal paste and do a deep clean at least one every 3 or 4 years. Thermal paste and thermal pads tend to lose their properties over time, which might cause serious overheating issues. So for this episode, we'll give our PS4 Slim the love it deserves, we'll do a complete step by step teardown disassemble and cleaning. I'll also replace the thermal paste and the thermal pads.
For the teardown you'll need, a decent quality thermal paste, since we're going to do a complete disassemble it's also a good idea to change the thermal pads. We'll also need two types of screwdrivers: Torx T8 and Phillips PH0. Some sort of prying tool and set of pliers would also be helpful.
