We test the PS4 Slim to see how hot it gets...we also test the power consumption and noise level.
We start by testing the PS4 right out of the box without it even being set up yet. We then test it at the dashboard at idle, then we play a game for about 20 minutes and retest the temperature, decibels and watts.
Another test we do in this video is testing the PS4 before the thermal paste is replaced and after it's been replaced with brand new thermal paste.
We find that the readings are very similar before we replace the thermal paste and after. This shows that there is not a strong reason to replace the thermal paste right away.

@silverfox392 8 лет назад

I'm still shocked at all the stupidity filling the comments section for this video. Measuring the temperature of the air forced out from inside the console by the exhaust fan is not an accurate measure of the core temps for the CPU and GPU. The PS4 slim could be more efficient at removing heat than the older PS4 models and the xbox one which would place more heat at the exhaust. The console is smaller so the chassis will feel warmer to the touch as heat is transferred from the circuitry to heat sinks, and then removed by the fans. The only way to know how well the PS4 Slim cools would be to measure the core temps, any other measurement is not an accurate way to assess the efficiency of the system. I don't care how hot the air is that's being shot out the back, or how hot the case gets so long as the components are kept cool.

@LolJolk 2 года назад

The reason why it's "hotter" after repaste is because it's more efficient at transferring heat. While the heatsink increases in temperature, the actual die will be cooler as it's more efficient in transferring heat, resulting in lower noise. This is not the correct way to measure the temperature of course. It should be done only in Celsius and the die needs to be measured with a thermal probe on the back of the PCB (still a bit inaccurate). Obviously this is an old video and an old TronicsFix, so can't blame too much.

Great test as always. So Slim temperature is on par with Pro, seems pretty hot machine. 39 db seems a little optimistic to me, i misured on Slim 45-50db peak on BOIII and MGS V menu, those are extreme examples, but is indicative. Overall is less noisy than fat matte model.

@elevatefiitness 5 лет назад

I have my slip ps4 for 5 months now. Love it and it's great console. One test I did, when I brought my ps4 slim first time was played online Foxtel for 48hrs. Ps4 stayed warm and yes little heat at the bottom of the console but it never overheated. 2nd test was full day GAME play on Saturday from 8am to 12am midnight - 18hrs. Never overheated. Other then that, console turned out pretty awesome.

@FabergeApple 7 лет назад

I think its obvious that changing the thermal compound makes a difference. The Temperature increase shows a higher efficiency of heat transfer also the lower Db and lower Wattage show the fan spinning slower and drawing less power. Does anyone think this is plausible????

@Kolgrim1988 4 года назад

it absolutely is, more heat on the exhaust in this case is a good sign, and fan is not full blast which means core temps are decreased.

My PS4 slim gets worryingly hot in rest mode. It's just as hot as if it's playing a AAA video game and it's like this for hours (I have 1.5Mb of internet). My old Xbox One didn't get as hot as it while playing games and it always returned to cold when in instant on mode. Most of the Xbox One is designed poorly IMO, however in this case the cooling of the PlayStation is a much bigger oversight. An oversight that may make me return my PS4.

@kopo7466 7 лет назад

just throwing this out there,which this is mainly common sense,the best way to reduce the heat of your console is making sure it's in a cool open space,well clear of other heat producing electronics.2.you'll want either a stand to elevate it horizontally or a vertical stand,optimally with a fan built into it.placing it flat tends to heat the surface area,in effect,creating ambient heat.3.have a fan on the back to pull out the excess heat,preferably one that doesn't need to be plugged directly into the power supply.those tend to,over time,burn out either your power supply or your motherboard.trust me on that one,I've had to replace both in prior consoles more than a few times.simple solutions and also cost effective

I think a fan could help, but doesn't do much in pulling heat out of the system. The best thing you could do is replace the thermal paste..of course it wouldn't hurt having a fan in general..

@Nesmaniac 7 лет назад

The Xbox One S is a great console. Mine never gets hot the fan only blows slightly warm air even if it's on for 12 hours straight. I've had my ps4 since launch & it don't seem to get too hot but far warmer air comes out of it. I was curious about the PS4 slim & I'm a bit surprised that sony has let microsoft beat them on this front with the XB1 S. I remember the original 360 was like a space heater & it had an external power supply but those 90nm chips vs the 14 or 16nm on the S makes huge difference of course. Microsoft got it right with the S it & if you see tear down vids I love the modular designed components which makes replacing parts far easier when these things get old. The hard drive being keyed to the console is the big weak spot though because once it goes the console loses it's operating system from the way I understand it & don't matter if you have an external drive plugged up or not the file system is on the primary drive always. If this is in fact the case then the hdd life is the consoles life so it doesn't so much matter how well or easy to replace the other components are.

That's pretty interesting actually, I also noticed that the PS4 Slim hasn't been updated to Version 4.00 yet. I'd like to let everyone know that there's a hidden feature of the PS4 Firmware for all models that effects the fans. Basically, instead of being on full force constantly during gameplay, they will only ramp up depending on how far the APU is being pushed. I noticed playing something like LittleBigPlanet 3, the fans would kick on the moment I started creating or editing, and also If I zoomed into an area that had a lot of dynamic elements to it. The moment I zoomed out or moved to areas where the physics don't apply, the fans returned to Idle speeds. It's pretty impressive and I'm surprised they didn't mention it in the release notes.

Arctic Silver 5 is a good T.I.M. but it will take you 200 hours of "break-in" period and time to time the device should be turned off to allow the T.I.M. to cool down to room temperature. after this, I'm sure the figures on the whiteboard will give better results.

Is this console still overheating or has Sony addressed it and fixed it? So far all I've read is its overheating issues from fairly reliable sources , but nothing addressing that it has been resolved. I bought the PS4 Pro on launch day , and since then up until last weekend I've had to return 3 of them do to numerous problems. Does Sony have a working console out right now or what???

Hi, it is very interesting to see how you have made this video. It gives a detailed description of how the unit's performance is. I still do not own a Ps 4 Slim but im researching on it before buying the same. Thank you for uploading this video and this is very educational. Is there any e mail address which i can contact you? Please reply.

My cousin plays on his PS4 slim for 8 hours every evening, I wonder how long it will last?

My PS4 slim (bought a week and a half ago) gets very warm to the touch at the bottom and the top of the unit, specifically the top right-hand corner, when placed horizontally. I have also noticed that the table unit that it's placed on also gets warm to the touch as a direct consequence of having the PS4 Slim on top of it, thermal conduction and all that. I hasten to add that I'm also referring to the bottom of the table unit that the PS4 slim is placed on, and it's 2cm thick! So in making something aesthetically pleasing, albeit relative to the individual, Sony seems to have overlooked heating issues. Very disconcerting.

These create heat. It's normal. They are going to feel hot and they are made to handle it. It's normal for it to be hot to the touch.

Are you sure? I have the same issue as the friend. It is not just hot its very hot!

I have a PS4 Slim, but it gets a little hot at the back. If you have a 3rd Party fan cooler then this will lower the temperature of the game.

Of course it gets hot at the back, that's where all the hot air is exhausted.

OK, so I'm not going to get the ps4 pro. Period. But I was wondering should I get the original or slim? Does one overheat? Does one make alot of noise? I know performance is the same thing.

Changing the thermal paste actually helped if u think about it. how? Ps4's cpu is gonna generate the same amount of heat anyway, so after changing paste the the blow out air got hotter mean the cpu is spreading the heat better. So after thermal paste replacment Cpu is gonna be less hot means the motherboard is gonna be less hot means those component gonna last longer.

you guys fixed my ps4 once.does it have the same hdmi ports issue as the og ps4?

@rayzimmermin 8 лет назад

their is a problem with your test the first ones were done on the table the second set were taken with it sitting on a box the table has less heat dissipation ans more sound amplification then the box so in the second set you should have noticeably lower numbers even without anything being done to the console

After 3 years my sims thermal paste was dry as a bone and they missed a few thermal pads as well, I re-pasted and replaced the thermal pads with K5 Pro and it’s running a lot better now it blow like a hair dryer now before it blew cool air, mines way way above 55C it feels around 90-100Cish blowing out of mine

PS4 12xx has such great reputation, comparing to the slim i think the 12xx c chassis is the better one.

What is the thermal paste that you use when you replace old ones?
