xITSBROWNIE Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 I've been having this problem constantly for the past month now and I honestly don't know what to do at this point. I cleaned the inside of it as well and apparently that did nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuntingFever Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 It sounds to me like either the fan is on its way out or the GPU needs reflowing with fresh solder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilkyJay86 Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Is it sittinh flat? Make sure it has room to breathe. Put a few books, games, whatever, on on the left and right edges creating a bridge. That way air can flow out from underneath, and through. It's all about how you place it, and where. Hope your Ps4's cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Build your bridge with wood from the local lumberyard or hardware store. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Well...are you gaming in a hot room? I got that message recently more than a few times but my room temp had gone as high as in the 90°s F this summer, and playing the games that push the ps4 a bit harder, expect that sony chipset to hit over 100°F easily. Also if your system is old, it doesnt help either that the thermal paste is probably caking up. Cleaning the inside helps but if your room is already warm to hot, itll just take in the warm hot air and heat up that chip faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only use my BEST games to prop it up. My games have whispered in my third ear that they feel no offense. Calm your sugar panties down. Lumber.. Lol. I don't know who's idea is more weird and I'm WEIRD. The general message I was trying to convey was not to lay it flat. G'day ma'am.

tjoe1bkhjtqxm Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Best and clearest video on YouTube to change the thermal paste? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pozri Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 reminds me of when I bought a xbox 360 slim, it over heated on the second day of owning it where my ps3 never had issues. But in saying that that consoles thermal compound didn't end up lasting long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
