@@dontreadmyprofilepicture8817 yup one time I forgot I left a bag of ice and it melted and was boiling my ps4 for a couple hours ,dont know how it didn't leak the bag was melting to the ps4 lol
Thanks for the vid man. I just did a clean-up of my OG PS4. I'm giving it away to a kid with a bunch of games & I want it to be as quiet as possible. I will be replacing the pads as well. 👍
So I’ve done this to a few PS4’s and worked like a charm. Did one yesterday and now the control won’t connect. Checked the antenna, tried different cables, replaced the antenna from my old console and still nothing. Any ideas?
Give the heatsink and fan a good clean and replace the thermal paste. When I was cleaning I forgot to add new thermal paste but scraped the old one off. These areas are where the problem lies mostly :)
@@aaryanatreya5591 since you’ve been through this I wanted to ask, do you need to let the system sit for a bit after you’ve reapplied new thermal paste? Or is it good to go once you get it put back together?
@@Heymickeyyousofine I would say put the PS4 back together and then let it sit for a while. For me it didn’t work after applying thermal paste so I had to take it to a gaming repair store
Hello I followed this guide to change my thermal paste since I had overheating issues. I changed both my thermal pads and thermal paste. I used grizzly thermal pads and Corsair TM30 thermal paste. I decided to try the dot technique since it was a lot simpler for me. After reassembly the console worked for an hour until it clicked off. No three beeps like the usual overheating. After 10 minutes to turned back on but had the same issue after 15 minutes of playing. Now I’m stumped. Should I try Artic silver 5 paste? Or the spread technique you showed here?
Something is not plugged in right, replug the ribbon cables. Power supply is probably not fully in all the way. You might have ribbon cables that’s damaged
Not really. I actually replaced the thermal paste on my ps4 pro a few days ago, but I did NOT do it like Pro Fixxer. It's not really that dangerous to try it, aside from the fact that you have to remove the warranty sticker. My PS4 so far got better, but I might touch up the thermal paste since I think I might have left a few bubbles in there.
Hi what happens if you remove the old thermal paste and don’t apply any paste on the processor after? I replaced my fan but didn’t apply any thermal paste. Thank you.
Chances are that when you turn the device on, the temperature for the processor will spike within seconds and the console will automatically shut itself off because it's overheating. If you're unlucky it'll even break itself.
Is this the proper method? I am confused because there are hundreds of videos of applying Thermal Paste but with different confusing strategy. So will this method 100% work?
yes 100% will work perfect. There are alot of methods and many perform the same. Essentially all you need on a ps4 is sufficient amount between the processor and heat sink. The application process on consoles isnt too important
I have a question: is it OK to remove the blue pin wires with the blue tabs. I’m asking because I’ve not had much luck with these in the past and I need to pull one out to remove the motherboard
Don’t be scared, be careful take it slow. Make sure you have all the tools and find a good guide. Keep a bowl near you to place the screws in, as long as your are slow and careful don’t be scared.
@@claytonyoung9941 the pea method is used for capped processors because the cpu die is much smaller than the actual cap This method I show is for uncapped and we focus on the die only. Pea method is applicable to most “gaming pc” builds as they use regular capped processors
ylod is generally caused by a physically separation from the processor and motherboard or something in the associated circuits. New thermal most likely will not fix your ylod issue.
Sir the video was about thermal paste what it does and the best methods of removing the old and various ways of spreading the new dab. Not a video on how to take apart a PS4 piece by piece.

Lol at the thermal past application. Just blob it in the middle, dude. There is no difference in temperatures with all the techniques. We debunked that in the early 90's already. And there is even a more recent video on it on one of Linus' channels. It's all about the right amount. Just a blob. As long as you don't use too little or too much it's ok.
do you have a link to the linus video. Also I've heard it's better to have too much
4 года назад+1
@@timnergaard3831 Too much does exactly the same as the "correct amount". It just poors over the edge of the cpu. You end up with the right amount between the cpu and the cooler. But with a mess around it.
I would personally blob it and call it a day. But when running a repair shop you want repeatability and consistency. Like you said “as long as you don’t use too little or too much it’s ok” With my card smear method, it reduces variables and increases consistency and repeatability and ensures that more techs can apply paste correctly than other methods.

Yooo, nice, now i can get rid of my ice packs and box fan setup
Love the ingenuity!
😂
Omg I thought I was the only one ,I put an ice pack and a frozen pack of peas everday
Actually hilarious, I thought I was the only dumbass throwing a baggy of ice on top of my PS4.

Thx for the video!! My PS4 Pro doesn’t overheat anymore 👍
Good to hear!
What was your ps4 missing?
Thank you homie it finally works you deserve a sub for that

You should do a video on the ripped traces on this ps4
Gonna do it tonight. I'm terrified 😁but have nothing to lose.
How’d it go?
What if I have a really loud fan and the ps4 doesn't get hot but it still gives the overheating message when trying to play games

@@grey297 Sadly not

I read that Corsair are the Worst Thermal Paste
I’d try a different thermal paste you can get the Arctic silver 5 on Walmart website for $8
i have that same thermal paste you're using in the video. i bought two packs of 5 a while back.
Yo bro i changed the thermal paste the same as u amd after 2 days the loud noise is back and idea why ?
Is there like a specific thermal paste for the PS4 or can I get any thermal paste on the internet
U could try the Arctic silver 5 seems like everyone in the comments said it worked for them
Is it really necessary to remove the Power Supply? I've never done this, so... I wanted to know. 👀
@Gxdly Spirits shit no wonder it was bending when I tried 😂
Normaly you dont Need to Change anithing , Thermal Grease can Hold up to 15 Years and more . Just Keep it Clean from Dust
@@DEXXXO not true
@@GodofZin For sure tested my self also on my PC and PS3
yes, the power supply has capacitors that stay charge like a battery, so yes remove that, you will need to remove it anyways to clean it lol
Mine doesn’t have the paper on the heat sink. Should I add something?
If it didn’t have it before I think it should be ok but I’m in no way a pro lol
Will a mx-5 work too since it os the same and the mx-5 is better?
I'm missing 1 thermal pad. Will it still quiet down after I've changed the paste with 1 missing?
Hello when you take the ps4 apart for the first time does it effect the thermal paste

Thanks for sharing
Hi what happens if you remove the old thermal paste and don’t apply any paste on the processor after? I replaced my fan but didn’t apply any thermal paste. Thank you.
you should always replace the paste. no paste is way worse for heating than a bad fan
Don't do that it can kill the whole thing
Chances are that when you turn the device on, the temperature for the processor will spike within seconds and the console will automatically shut itself off because it's overheating.
If you're unlucky it'll even break itself.
Tnx man this video really help me fix my PS4 its goes off wen i load games tnx...

I have a question: is it OK to remove the blue pin wires with the blue tabs.
I’m asking because I’ve not had much luck with these in the past and I need to pull one out to remove the motherboard
It’s fine
You can pull all of them except the biggest one, it has a tab you have to pop up if not it will break
Stupid question, will I need a heat gun for motherboard before applying thermal paste, because the PS3 did? Thanks great vid
No heat requirements
I need your help my guy
What if its not loud is paste ok?
Well if it’s not loud then I’m assuming the paste is probably fine then
my ps4 slim sounds very loud and gets very hot will this improve it?
Yes and you might need to clean the fan just incase
i wanna replace it myself but im scared that im gonna mess something up
Don’t be scared, be careful take it slow. Make sure you have all the tools and find a good guide. Keep a bowl near you to place the screws in, as long as your are slow and careful don’t be scared.
you just don't go cheap out on thermal paste, they won't know it's a bad paste
i used artic MX-4 thermal paste for my ps4. so much quieter ! the best for ps4 and lasts the longest.
I went that route but how long do you wait after applying it? Or can i just try it now?
@@bentobar222 what do you mean? you just put the paste on and then put the plate back on.
@@Overqualification he’s asking how long did be wait for the paste to fully apply
@@bentobar222 it's good to go straight away bro
I changed over 5 ps4 pros thermal paste and still don't know if I should just butter it extreme or slightly frizzle it. Anyone?
First I do the card method then I put a pea sized dot in the middle to make sure it’s fully covered
yea imma just stick to the pea method
@@claytonyoung9941 the pea method is used for capped processors because the cpu die is much smaller than the actual cap

Too risky but effective... I'm fine with cleaning it out but applying thermal paste is somthing I'm too much of a coward.
ps3 ylod repair maybe?
ylod is generally caused by a physically separation from the processor and motherboard or something in the associated circuits. New thermal most likely will not fix your ylod issue.

i did the same and my ps4 is running quite and smooth😍
