What do you mean? that's why we do custom watercooling in the first place so it's whisper quiet.

[@DuckMan77]

@@JhustineProvido Air Cooling though is a different story. Water Cooling isnt just about noise but also when you do a custom loop you have substantially higher volume to saturate before reaching equilibrium. Generally with air cooling up to a point the faster you can pass air over the heatsink the better, a quieter fan may be pushing less air over the sink which = less cooling.

Better question is which fan does the better job of moving air in and out of the console? I dont really care much about fan noise as i usually put in a fan mod on my consoles to make them run faster and move as much air as possible while its running. Thats way more important than fan noise to me personally.

as a professional repair technician thats already fixed several ps5s with various problems i feel this really unessecary, you are showing us how to fix a problem that doesnt exist, the variance in decibels on these blower fans across the 3 oem's is neglible, and the variance in performance as far as wicking off heat is even more so. furthermore of all the playstations i have diagnosed and repaired ive never once seen make even close to as much noise as the one you demonstated to be loud. i dont know if thats due to the microphone being so close, editing gains on your recording, or simply just a defective fan bearing, but that kind of noise is not normal operation at all and would fall within the manufactures warranty, or simply replaced as shown since sony has made this fan servicable without having to break the warranty seal. Edit: Kinda Preachy sorry, but i recently had to repair a fan connector for a customer, becuase he was taking his fan out to clean it on a monthly basis and broke 3 of the 5 pads on the connector. I fixed the connector jumping traces and running some wires, as well as educated the kid on why its a really bad idea to try and fix something that isnt broke. I feel like your video here will just promote undue damage to these still very hard to obtain devices. Good for my business sure.. but sheesh. this is a bad video lol.

I'm not worried about fan noise, it can be loud as long as it keeps the system cool. The quieter fan may also be less efficient at cooling. A system that gets too hot may lead to other components breaking down, so no matter the noise, keep mine cool!

[@fredstead5652]

Simply not the case. I literally toasted my gaming PC at 83-90c gaming for 5 years, and it's still fine. Trust me, the PS5 doesn't even get close to those temps, and generally quieter means not working as hard to keep the system cool. Your real concern shouldn't be with replacing the fan, it should be with keeping dust out of the system. That's the biggest issue when it comes to electronics overheating.

[@htxsupercrewon22s]

The Nidek fans have that extra small row of fan blades in the center and pushes air better thats why its "louder"

[@TheChosenOne90]

I guess it just depends on the person whether they prefer the fan that helps the airflow of the PS5 better, and it being bit louder. Or the quieter fan that doesn’t push the air as well. All in all in my personal opinion I feel the “louder” fan really isn’t that loud, and the quieter fan although quieter still gives the PS5 airflow almost or just as good as the Nidek.

[@Arbouet]

So you've installed the quietest, but which is the most efficient at cooling? Different fan profiles (indicated by the noise) are likely to affect cooling performance

i think they're pretty much the same, as it is louder when it cools more

[@joet6434]

@Miguel Melo I have had mine since launch day, so over a year now & no issue but as you say when more demanding titles built purely for the current gen, PS5/SERIES, appear, we may well hear the fans being pushed to accomodate the more technically demanding titles, but, it will possibly be another year or two before we see or hear signs of that. It is a quiet machine currently, but the series x has it beat in terms of silent running. I'm glad both machines are close in terms of specs this time around. Not that specs are indicative of success in the games industry.

I just don’t understand how manufactures make faulty products when they have been manufacturing for years and years. Do they not learn nor do hours and hours of testing before they release products

[@know1827]

I wouldn't say it's faulty, just louder. It's still doing its job. But since demand is more than quantity they're using what they can or what is cheaper to try and meet demands as best as they can

[@PushStart_YT]

once upon a time, companies spend time and money to do thorough testing. now, the consumers are beta testers.

[@hippo2432]

My question is does the quieter fan cool the system better or does it just spin slower. I really wouldn't care how loud it is because I care more about keeping it cool than how loud it is

[@davidvega6272]

I got a PS five digital edition and my consul and is running good but I save this video when the time comes I will buy myself a fan to customize and install it. I’m glad I saw this video

[@khanbestopped]

Seriously compared to last gen even the loudest variant is a blessing. This is a bit exaggerated but I guess the option is there for those who want it.

[@matthewtr]

When I first got my PS5 months ago it was loud as'f with coil whine, but after they released some updates for games and the system it's quiet, like you can't hear a single sound whether it be digital, disc, PS5 game, etc.

[@Brandon_N420]

That’s good to hear

[@smurfeeNn]

Coil whine is something that can't be removed through software updates. However, in some cases coil whine can disappear after the component has been used for a while, which might be the case for your console!

[@matthewtr]

Yeah, I almost went back to PS4 because it was so bad, but now it's quiet and doesn't get on my nerves. 😂

[@gummybear41283]

@@smurfeeNn whats coil whine

The central bank could use a cooling mod for their money printers.

[@dmksaramengistu]

I'm so amazed i can only hear the device operating i can't hear the air humming through the fan that means i really have to be up close to hear all of it...and since they say the original fan runs just fine that means the Delta fan should be outstanding🤷‍♂️ Again 2 Big thumbs up 👍👍

[@onigiriCruncher]

"The Delta Cooling fan is actually the quietest variant" Sounds very non-demonetizable to me

[@georgeomonigho8344]

No matter how loud the ps5 sound, in as much it does not have any negetive inpart on the system I will never think of changing anything inside.

Purchasing a PS5 slowly turns into lottery somehow

You've heard that saying- if it's not broken,LEAVE IT THE FUCK ALONE!!!

[@bryonyamada2620]

I have NO complaints with my PS5's noise. Very quite. I guess I have the Delta vers, but good to know if it comes up.

[@JS-fb6ww]

Bookmarking all of your videos for when I actually am able to get a ps5 in 10 years.

[@nordichorde6121]

The Delta Variant won't give me Covid, Will it? Lol

[@sym9872]

I would love to see actual noise measurements of both fans or datasheet noise levels of each fan at least

[@ZombieWindex]

Makes sense, 17 vs 23 blade fan and delta probably has more amps which keeps it quieter

[@StefanConstantinDumitrache]

This video made me open up the console just to check the fan, and I'm lucky to have the Delta variant already :)

[@jimanmircea]

Same here 😁😁

[@haanstang648]

I don’t want to quieter one. I want the one that cools the best. Which one is that? I don’t understand how putting the quietest one in makes it run better… It just makes it quieter. We need a comparison of all three for the cooling aspect.

[@MyMonstra]

It was indeed helpful, but noise isn't really an issue tbh. I was more hoping that by switching out the fans it would've somehow make it run better. But the videos was still helpful in any case.

[@wolflordreaper20]

I haven't gotten a PS5 yet but now your video left left me with a question which one cools the PlayStation 5 better

[@DangerousMongoose]

The fact my ps4 pro would act as a space heater for my room was enough justification to purchase the ps5.

[@50clint85]

I believe those three fans are from the three different OG PS5 models if you'll notice the fan blades are much different on every model the heatsinks on every model out of the three is way different as well you may want to make sure the fan blades even though it runs quieter move enough air across your heat sink

[@BLAKKHALO74]

This is one of the best instructional videos that I've seen on youtube since I found youtube back in 2010. Thank you.

[@joebojanic1905]

The disc drive is the noisy part. When that thing spools up it is obnoxiously loud, then goes back down since its basically for show now.

[@burticusmaximus8944]

good video. i think what would have made it better is comparing the temps with each fan. because i dont just want it quiet. i want low temps for the longevity of my hardware.

[@iamhealthy4068]

Idk. Switching from a PS4 that sounded like a jet engine and felt like I could bake cookies on it to a near silent fan (in comparison) that doesn’t have any major heat spots (at least with the games and time I’m playing)? I have zero complaints.

[@bastiaandebruijn3653]

i got a Delta in mine, works perfectly and it is super quiet from the beginning.
