PS5 Gamers Sound the Alarm: This Fatal Design Flaw Could Destroy Your Console

After spending years fixing many issues with consoles from around South Africa, the Console Service Centre has found a critical flaw in the design of the PS5. Thankfully, they have found a solution and suggested something for users to try in the new year that will help them prevent overheating and other issues with their already difficult-to-get next-gen console.

“New year’s resolution for your PS5 in 2023, and what we learnt after doing more than 50 PS5 repairs in 2022. Don’t stand your PS5 upright on its stand. Let it lay flat. When it’s upright and gets hot, the liquid metal runs down to the bottom of the main processor. And the PS5 eventually starts overheating, a big design flaw for the PS5 consoles.” – Console Service Centre, January 2, 2023.

Although PS5s are notoriously challenging to come across all around the world, over 50 of the consoles that went in for repairs had the same overheating problem caused by the users’ decision to keep the console standing horizontally and not vertically. Although the console is built for either orientation, let’s leave this one to the experts.

Overheating is an issue for the PlayStation 5 in general. One of the leading causes of overheating is having the console stored in a confined space while you are gaming. These two issues may be connected. One of the best ways to save space with a massive console is storing the big hunk of technology vertically, allowing for more room to put things around it.

The PS5, like any self-contained console or gaming unit, is designed to look after itself. The machine struggles to look after itself when its fans or coolant systems are remotely obstructed. Standing vertically may cause certain liquids to obey the laws of gravity and escape the confines of where they are meant to be at any given time. Laying it flat affords the machine the space and ventilation it needs to look after itself properly.
