For all those saying we live in a dirty house. This PS5 is run for 16+ hours a day, every day for 18 months to test how it lasts, and part of that was not cleaning it our to see if it would overheat, that's what we do on this channel, we test things. So when comparing this to your own PS5, take the hours it is used into account. I'm more than positive it would look no different no matter who's house it was in. We also have a second PS5 in the house which is exactly the same age and was used in a more normal way, and when that was taken apart to fit an SSD you can see that even with no prior cleaning and video being shot at the same time, that PS5 has hardly any dust. See for yourself ruclips.net/video/E962wat0Juw/видео.html So i hope that explains things for all those who are being abusive and rude and just shows why you shouldn't jump to conclusions and running your mouth off! With regards to removing the fan and also doing the dust catcher holes. the holes were vacuumed out, but not shown in the video and the vacuum is so powerful that i managed to get the dust off the fan without removing it. This was done by covering sections of the fan opening with my hand and putting the vacuum nozzle over the part i wasn't covering, making the suction super powerful. Why did i not show this in the short video? well i wanted to concentrate on satisfaction of removing the dust that you can see, not much fun in watching dust being removed that you can see properly.
I am pretty sure mine is as dusted up even without running it that much cause we had a construction site in our area and you wouldnt belive the amount of dust flying in the air and getting throught the windows
You can take the fans out on these very easily, ive done it to mine and a friends and made them sound brand new. All you need is a Torx T8 screwdriver, a gentle hand and some patients whilst taking off the air vent fins as they can break easily. There’s a few decent videos on YT how to do it, would definitely recommend it! 👍🏻

I just bought my ps5 and have been watching numerous videos about tips tricks and cleaning etc.... I think it is ABSOLUTELY awesome that Sony decided to allow people to take the covers off for cleaning without voiding anything. I'd like to shake the hand of whoever made this happen and the idea guy behind it as well.
It's cool that the ps5 was made easier to clean, I cleaned my PS4 once and it was so hard to get all those screws out and put them in the right place again
I quit smoking cigarettes when I realized what it does to the dust in my electronics. Sticky, black, and even hard to remove with isopropyl. Even vaping causes dust to adhere. I can’t imagine what my lungs look like 🙃
My ex brother smoke alot. My sister was to give her white Toyota Avalon to her daughter. When I clean it from the inside, all the white interior is smoked to gray. I gave it many cleaning ways to get it out. The smell was awful when entering. I smell and my clothes smell of cigarette afterward.
My friends brother was a pot head and cigarette smoker. We opened up his PC because of a problem and it was covered in tar. Pretty much had to throw it in the trash because it looked unfixable. All my things are pristine because I don’t smoke or vape, I always dust and keep everything clean.
@@tr1bes curious, whose an ex brother?!🫤 first I thought it was your ex’s brother but then as your sister was giving the car so I don’t think the ex’s brother would be knowing the sister so well that she would give the car to him to smoke inside. If not then how does a brother become ex!?😶
The cooler fins for the apu look even worse, I had an issue with mine where it just wouldn’t stay on when I played heavy games like god of war because it kept overheating.
@@sovereignblastoise6767 yea it got to that point for me too, your best bet is to try and use a vacuum on the vacuum ports that they have once you take the side plates off. However, taking it completely apart isn’t hard at all, the video I use was in Japanese and it’s on Sony’s official channel. Supposedly by now you aren’t voiding any warranty if you do this. But thats just what I’ve heard.
I done my sons ps4 after 9 years use,I was very shocked how dusty and dirty it was,after 1 hour cleaning it was like brand new again and very quiet. I found the instructions how to do it easy to follow and actually enjoyed doing it.his ps5 is two years old now and I’m gonna do that soon👍🏼
Did mine today after 14 months and it was awful it lives on a shelf close to my ceiling so no suprise there. Didn’t take it apart as didn’t want to void warranty I just carefully hoovered the inside and wiped it down runs much cooler now 😁
I’ve had my PS5 since the release date and I have never cleaned it. I want to but when I search up how I lose all motivation in doing so because everyone literally takes their entire system apart and I’m not doing that because I wouldn’t have a clue on how to put it back together. My system is now starting to sound like an airplane when I’m playing so now I’m forced to clean it. This guy kept it simple and easy so I’ll try to clean today.
@@doruxhd8602 I didn’t have the T9 screwdriver the first time I tried cleaning it so I just wiped down the panels and the vents but it’s definitely a lot quieter now. When I get a chance I’ll finish it off by cleaning the fan. U should definitely try it.
I don’t understand why they don’t do that as well. I was looking at making a custom one but wasn’t sure if the fiber from the filter would make things worst since I’m not sure what material to use.
DrJ...ore ore you clean your PS5 on a regular basis like a normal gamer would do. I clean my PS5 once in 6 weeks, and when i'am not using it i put a duskcover over it.

Those dust catchers dont do much. Vacuuming them out dont do as good as Sony made it seem. U GOTTA TAKE THE FAN OUT AND CLEAN THE FRONT OF THE HEATSINK OR EVERYTHING DONE IN THIS VID IS POINTLESS.
@Bloofa exactly. All the dust, animal hair, etc gets clogged at the front of the heatsink. I learned this back when i had to clean the heatsink on my ps4 pro, it started shutting off in thermal protection cuz it couldn't breathe. U could hear the air forcing its way thru the dust and heatsink, making a jet-like whistle. Cleaned it and it was quiet. Recently did my ps5 which is how i realized ps5 takes in more dust than anything I've ever seen and my room is clean WITH an air purifier in there. Still had dust starting to build up at the front of the heatsink on those slits the air passes through. Sony actually designed ps5 to be taken apart easy so thats the easy part, so is removing the fan. Hard part is reaching the heatsink to clean it lol!
It’s so satisfying to see that we can access and clean the fan on both sides of the ps5 with out any hassle. I remember cleaning my PS4. Getting the case off gave me severe anxiety. the clicking noises made me think I broke the dam thing. Then It took me near enough an hour just to try and snip of the plastic bits so that I can lift the metal sheet to access the fan. 😅
I did my son's today because every time he plays Fortnite it shuts off, so I took it apart cleared the dust and it started working right, now I have to make sure he put his dust protector on every night.
Uhm no you don’t it’s a ps5 not a pc from the 90’s 😂 you don’t need to clean consoles I have had my ps4 for 10 years never opened it once to clean it lol there engineered specifically so you don’t have to clean them. If you had to clean it it would say somewhere on the manual to prevent lawsuits

You don’t gotta clean the heat sink of a fucking ps5 your literally voiding your warranty doing that and risking frying your motherboard. 😂 there designed to be cleaned from the outside or at most after years of use opening the cover. Like he does in the video and using a can of computer compressed air duster not a fucking vacuum 😂 2nd) the fan sits right on top of the heat sink that’s the whole point of a compressed air can they have thin nozzles that allow you to get the hard to reach areas so you don’t gotta take apart your shit. You don’t think the engineers at Sony designed it in a way that can be cleaned effectively from the outside? Most console users never ever clean there shit and they run fine for years. Try doing that with a generic cheap case PC and your pc will be overheating in a couple years for sure. Just stop spreading misinformation man your risking some dumb kids fucking up there console.
If it's loud then you definitely should clean it lol. My 5 year old PS4 was loud and eventually overheated because it was clogged with dust inside the hestsink
same here. have had my xbox one s for 6 years now and never taken it apart for a cleaning. i blew it out with my mouth a couple times to be safe and it still works just as good as when i bought it and isn’t any louder than it was out of the box either. but in all fairness my house is clean and kept as dust free as possible
I gave my son’s PS5 a good clean last week I even took the fan out as well as the hoovering, my son has to leave the room once I start taking it apart. Dismantled the PS4 before no fear here great video

@@danielweiss4498 what if your console is dusty like this one, I wonder if those holes really work. I don't think it would get the dust out the fan, but maybe just the dust internally in the console that you can't see
How did yours get so dusty? I had mine since launch and the only time I've opened it is to upgrade my storage which was last month and it was never that dusty
My ps5 is like pretty much the exact age and in the exact state and I’ve always been so scared to do it myself in case I fuck it up but this man just made me realize how easy it is and he’s earned a free sub from me
Not sure why consoles don’t just have a washable air filter that you can pull out like a central air filter. Just clean the filter and put it back in. No dust inside on your components or heat sink clogging anything.
😮Wow, I've never seen a guy open a Play 5 by removing the lids so gently that he didn't even mark the device. Congratulations, another successful subscriber to your channel 😍👏 hugs from your eternal fan Upiiiiiiiiii Vitória Always 🌀
Mine is about two years old, I played over 1000 hours, luckily my dust problem is not as bad, but still thanks for the video, I just cleaned mine today 😁
Uhm, guys, my ps5 was 3 years old, and I have never cleaned it. It finally decided to a few days ago since dust was on the outside fan thingy . Let's just say you should clean it frequently.
Does not matter how clean you think you are unless you live in a static free and dust free environment you’re going to see it looking like that in about 1 to 2 years. Just done mine yesterday after a year and the fan had a slight layer but was minor. Heat sinks seemed clean.
I'm on the third floor of an apartment. I don't play my PS5 a great deal, but I've had it for 18 months and have not cleaned it until today, when I installed an M.2 SSD. I did have some dust buildup on the outside top, which I just wiped off. Very little dust inside, none really all that visible - I just took a blower to it.
I'm a techy person but not to the point where I'd self repair my ps5. Although I did open it and took off some parts to do a deeper clean and now it's immaculate
I bought a used PS5 digital edition for $480 CAD (Canadian Dollars) and I removed the side panels, was filthy like yours! Especially the fan, I'd remove the fan and brush the heatsinks inside.
After 2 years you definitely are gonna need to fully disassemble the housing to clean the heat sinks. Within 3 years I’ve had to do this twice because of the power unit tripping/resetting and overheating/loud cracking sounds the second time. After cleaning both times the console was as quiet as a mouse and gave me and extra year+ of usage between maintenance. Plz show love to the heat sinks and not just the fan, you’d be surprised of how much dust is actually in there.
Mine was like that after the first 3 months of its release (uk day1 owner) and well cleaned it last night and mine made yours look spotless I was absolutely mortified
Dont forget to clean the lower heat duct vents underneath the fan, leaving that uncleaned will cause overheating bc of how the air passes through to that point.
I opened up mine after having it for 3 years and surprisingly there was hardly any dust. Compare that to my ps4, for around the same period of time, it was a night and day difference. My ps4 was CAKED in dust and dirt after that long. So much that it got overheating problems and even after cleaning it it didn’t work the same afterwards.
I’ve had mine for about 10 months and it looked almost like this . I do have pets tho so that definitely matters. But just using an eyebrow brush and a vacuum I was able to clean it pretty well without take the fan off . I would if I had to screw driver for it
Just popped mine open for the first time since i got it on launch. I thought i lived in a pretty dusty house but mine had nothing compared to this. A lot of buildup on the fan. A few little dust bunnies near the heat sinks and in the shell, but thats it.
For all those saying we live in a dirty house. This PS5 is run for 16+ hours a day, every day for 18 months to test how it lasts, and part of that was not cleaning it our to see if it would overheat, that's what we do on this channel, we test things.

2nd) the fan sits right on top of the heat sink that’s the whole point of a compressed air can they have thin nozzles that allow you to get the hard to reach areas so you don’t gotta take apart your shit. You don’t think the engineers at Sony designed it in a way that can be cleaned effectively from the outside? Most console users never ever clean there shit and they run fine for years. Try doing that with a generic cheap case PC and your pc will be overheating in a couple years for sure. Just stop spreading misinformation man your risking some dumb kids fucking up there console.
Im so happy its that easy to clean it. Just pop the covers.
"My god this side is even worse" hit me different for some reason
That's because it has knuckles +3 with armor piercing on, that's why it hits different than a normal knuckle
Bro my Xbox hasn’t been cleaned in 7 years and it still works fine but there’s probably spider webs in it.
If it's loud then you definitely should clean it lol. My 5 year old PS4 was loud and eventually overheated because it was clogged with dust inside the hestsink
@@deagle7776 it’s actually not loud at all. Don’t know how cuz my cat sleeps on it every night lol
same here. have had my xbox one s for 6 years now and never taken it apart for a cleaning. i blew it out with my mouth a couple times to be safe and it still works just as good as when i bought it and isn’t any louder than it was out of the box either. but in all fairness my house is clean and kept as dust free as possible
Bro should I buy xbox series s does it catch dust inside
Another good idea is to use compressed air after vacuuming. You can blast away additional dust
No eso no es malo para que sepas te puedes echar el lector
I blew mine out with an air compressor until dust stopped coming out. My brother's done this to his many times over the last few years.
This the best straight to the point video I ever seen in my whole yrs of living😂😂
I gave my son’s PS5 a good clean last week I even took the fan out as well as the hoovering, my son has to leave the room once I start taking it apart. Dismantled the PS4 before no fear here great video
I’ve had mine since launch. Opened it today to clean and it wasn’t nearly as bad as that
He forgot the most important thing!
Sony put intentionally 2 holes on the playstation 5 where you have to put the vacuum cleaner where the dust is sucked out of the playstation 5.
Watch the offical PS5 teardown from sony where they explain this
@@danielweiss4498 why did you comment this more than once?
@@danielweiss4498 what if your console is dusty like this one, I wonder if those holes really work. I don't think it would get the dust out the fan, but maybe just the dust internally in the console that you can't see
How did yours get so dusty? I had mine since launch and the only time I've opened it is to upgrade my storage which was last month and it was never that dusty
You'd have to ask my son that question 😄
@@TheTechGiantRUclips hahahahaha. That was kinda gross in there. 😆
Same here
Indeed
They don't vacuum
The PS5 is doing it's job. It's a vacuum cleaner.
Wal-Mart vacuum cleaner. Ok
@@Monterrey5 Any kind of vacuum??
Mines keep shutting off while I’m in mid game nd I think it’s because of the dust inside, I had it since 2020 and never cleaned in the inside 🤦🏾♂️
My ps5 is like pretty much the exact age and in the exact state and I’ve always been so scared to do it myself in case I fuck it up but this man just made me realize how easy it is and he’s earned a free sub from me
This is awesome, It's like brand new again.
Wow that was pretty rank , I use a dust cover on mine made massive difference after 5 months use
What dust cover do you use? I've only been able to find one on amazon and it's very overpriced, in my opinion
@@honeygrunge8965 just use a dish towel if you have it laying down, works perfect
Don‘t use anything. Just clean it every once in a while…
If you use a dust cover, you have to remember to take it off every time you turn the PS5 on...
A dust cover doesn’t prevent dust getting sucked in by the fans.
What vacuum did you use? I'd like to know for when I vacuum mine
Same
Dyson
WHICH ONE???@@brianwashington2449
same!!
Short but so satisfying
I didnt know it was that easy to do it. Great video!
I haven't cleaned my ps4 in 9 years 😳
Disclaimer alert, not sure Sony recommends hoovering, but looks cleaner!
It's ok as I was Dysoning 😉😁
Sony literally tell you to hoover the system in the manual.
Not sure why consoles don’t just have a washable air filter that you can pull out like a central air filter. Just clean the filter and put it back in. No dust inside on your components or heat sink clogging anything.
You forgot to remove and clean the the fan and fan housing....there's more dust in there lol i just cleaned mine this weekend
See pinned comment 😉
😮Wow, I've never seen a guy open a Play 5 by removing the lids so gently that he didn't even mark the device. Congratulations, another successful subscriber to your channel 😍👏 hugs from your eternal fan Upiiiiiiiiii Vitória Always 🌀
Thank you so much
That has got to be the smoothest cover removal I’ve ever seen. 👍🏼👍🏼
Didn't know you could remove the sides. I need to do this soon lol
Great idea my friend 👍
I heard that vacuuming electronics isn't great because of esd, is that true?
Well I quess it would be better than leaving the dust to build up my friend 😂
Mine is about two years old, I played over 1000 hours, luckily my dust problem is not as bad, but still thanks for the video, I just cleaned mine today 😁
That's surprisingly clean, my kids constantly on it and was much worse after 9 months
mine looks like that in 2-3 months lol
You need to start dusting your home more. Better breathing quality and electronics last longer, trust me!
Hey mate just seen this sony also put in two slots none disc side so can hoover more from inside.
bet the heat sinks look worse then the fans!
I've been cleaning my ps5 the entire 3 years I've owned it. Besides coil whine it's been fine
I JUST cleaned my PS5 10 minutes ago and see this lol. Mine was about 18 months old too, but not as dusty as this one.
I just cleaned mine after about 15 months and mine had like no dust really at all
I did the same thing but the disk part was filld by dust
Can you please share what vaccum cleaner you had used?
I got my ps5 day one and didn’t even know you could open it. Doing this today! Thanks.
I've been using my PS4 console for 8 years (playing almost every day) without cleaning it and it still works perfectly.
My like makes it 2k , you forgot to clean rear side ( it will be most dusty !!)
Surprisingly satisfying
This is why I clean my consoles once a month.
Uhm, guys, my ps5 was 3 years old, and I have never cleaned it. It finally decided to a few days ago since dust was on the outside fan thingy . Let's just say you should clean it frequently.
This really reminds of that video of a guy having a spider living inside his ps5 and disappeared.
That should work for me. I prefer a simple way to clean it because it's quicker. Just none that require so many tools. Especially screwdrivers.
I’ve had mine since release and changed plates twice without seeing that kind of dust. This dude my be running an animal hospital
This sh*t is so satisfying to watch!😂
Bro that ps5 needs more than just a simple cleaning lol. By the looks of that fan, you’d be smart to take it apart and clean the heat sync too lol
This console is more dirty than my 17 year old ps2.
Does not matter how clean you think you are unless you live in a static free and dust free environment you’re going to see it looking like that in about 1 to 2 years. Just done mine yesterday after a year and the fan had a slight layer but was minor. Heat sinks seemed clean.
Wow my console is from last February 2023 model and i just clean it today and its not even this close to Dusky just wow.
Nah if it collected that much dust in such a short time you're gonna wanna check the fan itself.
I'm on the third floor of an apartment. I don't play my PS5 a great deal, but I've had it for 18 months and have not cleaned it until today, when I installed an M.2 SSD. I did have some dust buildup on the outside top, which I just wiped off. Very little dust inside, none really all that visible - I just took a blower to it.
I'm a techy person but not to the point where I'd self repair my ps5. Although I did open it and took off some parts to do a deeper clean and now it's immaculate
Hi Millie I really like this style! This separates you and you did a great breakdowń
I bought a used PS5 digital edition for $480 CAD (Canadian Dollars) and I removed the side panels, was filthy like yours! Especially the fan, I'd remove the fan and brush the heatsinks inside.
Thanks mate. Really easy and straight forward to follow. Appreciate it 👍🏼
After 2 years you definitely are gonna need to fully disassemble the housing to clean the heat sinks. Within 3 years I’ve had to do this twice because of the power unit tripping/resetting and overheating/loud cracking sounds the second time. After cleaning both times the console was as quiet as a mouse and gave me and extra year+ of usage between maintenance. Plz show love to the heat sinks and not just the fan, you’d be surprised of how much dust is actually in there.
Must have a nasty ass house
With howveasy that cover came off, you definitely have removed it before.
Mine was like that after the first 3 months of its release (uk day1 owner) and well cleaned it last night and mine made yours look spotless I was absolutely mortified
Why am I watching this instead of getting up from the couch and do it myself 😂😂😂
Dont forget to clean the lower heat duct vents underneath the fan, leaving that uncleaned will cause overheating bc of how the air passes through to that point.
I opened up mine after having it for 3 years and surprisingly there was hardly any dust. Compare that to my ps4, for around the same period of time, it was a night and day difference. My ps4 was CAKED in dust and dirt after that long. So much that it got overheating problems and even after cleaning it it didn’t work the same afterwards.
Fixed my fan noise thanks man
The accent made me think it was Korg from Thor movies 😂
Only thing missing is a good spray of condensed air on all holes of the ps5 from different angles
Opening xbox and Playstation and controllers is just fun. Can't wait until something breaks again😅
I’ve had mine for about 10 months and it looked almost like this . I do have pets tho so that definitely matters. But just using an eyebrow brush and a vacuum I was able to clean it pretty well without take the fan off . I would if I had to screw driver for it
Just popped mine open for the first time since i got it on launch. I thought i lived in a pretty dusty house but mine had nothing compared to this. A lot of buildup on the fan. A few little dust bunnies near the heat sinks and in the shell, but thats it.
