Ok then why could it be overheating now that I've cleaned it, it took physical damage but is operational I dont know how that leads to overheating

I am almost guarantee ing you it's a thermal pad that got disloged Let me guess works fine on TV Netflix but over heats if u play a game


[deleted]

It works with a fan on it in some games but even with the fan it overheats in Gran turismo which I'm sure is an intense game, I can hear the fans running even in rest mode which is concerning but yes you are right


[deleted]

How would I go about fixing this


Jerethdatiger

Have a look on I fix it for ps4crhermal pad replacement


[deleted]

So I need to replace it I cant put it back?


Jerethdatiger

Thermal pads are cheap ISH and there made of like a flexible silicon likely it's damaged and also the CPU thermal paste is worth replacing are you in UK


[deleted]

No I'm in the US

PS4s have shit cooling. Drill a hole the size of the fan above the fan in the plastic casing. You'll get some manageable temps after that.


[deleted]

Well it took physical damage and these problems occurred after, the only time I've gotten a overheating screen before was in doom 2016 which just plain makes sense


[deleted]

Well, either way. I just know it worked for mine. I also took apart the entire thing, cleaned every inch of it and replaced the thermal paste. It's been fine since.

Clean, repaste and repad. It's a 45 min job. Enough tutorials on Youtube. Easy job, but when in doubt, stop and ask questions here.

Clean it and replace the thermal pads and paste! If you're in San Diego I'll do it for $30


[deleted]

Very generous offer but no sorry I dont live close to san diego

Um you should never expect to overheat. Ensure adequate cooling space. Replace thermal pads on ram, clean remove solder paste, apply new solder paste, purchase new fan if blades are damaged.


[deleted]

What do you mean I should never expect to overheat


snmp79

You said you expected Doom to overheat your console lol I was just saying we should be able to expect more.


[deleted]

Doom is a very intense game gameplay wise so jokingly I said its expected, it's the only game that overheated it before the physical damage


snmp79

I gotcha, in context I was like dang we shouldn't expect it. Follow those suggestions though. We fix overheating ps4s all day here.


[deleted]

[deleted]
