Great video, Do you know is that fan that you used the newer quiet model one, because I don’t know what the model number for the new quiet fan is? , I just wondered if you or any of your followers new . Regards Chris.

Sorry i couldnt tell you if it was the quiet one or not i just seen the fan replacment on line and bourght it i donremeber that fan came as kit had the screwdivers and thermal paste with it but my ps4 pro still runs quiet today can hear the fan spin up then it backs off and is really smooth no jet engine sound

[@KingSharoz786]

Is the thermal pad adhesive? Or do you have to use glue? Also what brand is the thermal pad and paste you used? Thanks

[@snigeplays6070]

Deep cool is the brand of thermal paste i used and thermal grizzly is the brand of pad i used You dont need glue for the thermal pad as they are slightly sticky and hold inplace

[@TitusMH]

Don’t use glue on thermal pads 😂

Idk if i have a older model of the PS4 pro but i dont have a cross clamp i have a singular clamp and no plate

Process should still be pretty mutch the same mate there 2 different types one with x clanmp and one with a clamp looked like an s but replacing the thermal pads and paste and fan should still be almost the same

[@OG_1312]

Hey how much of improvement is due to new paste and pads and how much due to new fan? Do you think I will be fine with just changing paste and pads? (7116b edition)

[@snigeplays6070]

Nine times out of ten you can get away with just thermal paste and pads as long as you clean your fan really good and the heat sink grill as clear it all from dust and fluff and with good airflow back shoukd really help if you think your fan is working perfectly there is now harm putting that old fan back in i replaced mine due it not spinning like it should have also the improvment i have seen i my system alone is 100% as it runs as quiet as ps5 now like i said in my videos my wife wanted to keep the ps4 but yes runs newer games like farm sim 22 ac valahalla and avangers

do you need to remove/unplug the power supply in order to remove the motherboard? I’ve seen a lot of people in reddit who broke it accidentally so I can say that it is pretty fragile.

Yes you do as the is 2 metel prongs that also plug i to the power supply connectung it to the mother board along with the small cable

[@silwan5206]

Hy Bruh my console turns off by itself cause of high temperature .. i just cleaned everything but i didn't replace the thermal paste it was dried and my fan was rotating smoothly when I spin and it is clean too ... but when I turn on the console the fan doesn't spins ... and the console turns off in seconds .. if i replace the thermal paste does the fan works! or something else??

[@snigeplays6070]

It wouldnt hurt to change the thermal paste mate but it wont fix the fan issue if the fan is not running it could be the that fan motor is not working Going by your comment you im guessing you have had your ps4 apart could check to see if the fan is plugged in may have forgot that or if its plugged in properly just a thought if that doesnt work matbe a replccment fan the fan could burnt out and just doesnt work the other thing i would look at is the connector on the mother board maybe damaged or not connected to mother board properly if thats the case not an easy fix but i would check all the things i mentioned and a fan replace first and see what happens hope this helps Ps i have forgotten to plug the fan back in before to lol and had open the ps4 again a link to the fan i used is in my description of this video

To much thermal paste can make it run hot or it just could be that the fan is on on its way out like mine was thats why i replaced the fan i just did the thermal paste and pads while i had it open since i have owned mine since launch of the ps4 pro

Why you put blue tape inside the ps4 ?

Hello friend If it is not coming off the mother board like i have shown in the video you can always try and take it off at the power supply it can unplug from there aswell But same the mother board plug be carefull not rip the socket off that that cord plugs into a needle nose pair of pliars can help to just make sure you grab the white plug that sits in side the connection dont pull on wires or the socket

I put the thermal pad on the hdmi chip just cos they got hot to i dont know if it was necessary but i did it for peace of mind for my self just to help keep cooler i have seen other ps4 where the hdmi chip has gotten hot and failed so anything to help was a good idea in my mind

[@Jacob-hl3gt]

@@snigeplays6070 ok, I've seen other people doing that, but I heard in order for it to work, you need something on top to sandwich it. My concern was that it might cause problems with the machine, if I added a thermal pad. Have you thought of placing a pad on the Scei chip?

Havent thourght of putting one on the scei chip i may have to look into it all tho my ps4 pro is running perfect since doing this video and am having no problems im pretty happy with the job i did so far no hiccups lol touch wood Thermal pad i used seemed to sandwich in fine on my hdmi chip aswell but i guess you could always get a thicker thermal pad if you need i used 1mm pads

What’s the point of replacing the fan? Just a clean it

[@snigeplays6070]

Because my standard fan wasnt spinning fast enough when it needed to if your fan works fine then no need to replace it i needed to replace mine so i covered that in the video mate

[@YTBowsette]

@@snigeplays6070 well how can I even tell if it’s not spinning fast enough, I put new thermal paste in mine and it slowed down a lot for obvious reasons, when I used to play rdr2 it was a jet engine (before I put new thermal) and the air coming out now when playing rdr2 for several hours goes up to a max of 148F, but it likes to sit around 143, and the fan doesn’t make any weird noises, but the top of the console is warm, while it doesn’t get cooler, it doesnt get hotter than from when it was on the Home Screen when playing rdr

[@snigeplays6070]

My ps4 suonded the same mate when i took my ps4 apart the first time i only replaced the thermal paste and put it back together and then it was loud on home screen of marvels avengers game so played that game for 2 hours ps4 still loud as like jet so i tried ac valhalla same thing both big games in the way they look and perform so i then decided to change everything out thermal pads on ram chips and thermal paste and fan once i put the fan in it would spin up but was much quieter then the original fan then i sat down and looked at the old fan and found it was loose on the spindle and had alot of play in the fan motor where as the new fan did not but that was just my fan mate so in my thought my og fan was no good to me it should not have had that much play in the fan

[@YTBowsette]

@@snigeplays6070 I didn’t replace the one x’s ram chip pads but they weren’t hard or anything, they were like clay and easy to move, I didn’t take them off I just put them back on, It just starts blowing heat when I turn it on, even on the Home Screen, I hope it’s normal (the fan isn’t on high speed on the home)
