Sony's latest beast runs fast and hot. PS5 are solid, reliable machines but keep some of the same problems of earlier consoles.
VERY IMPORTANT:
All PS5 have some form of liquid metal, and all have hot spot issues. Replacement is considered non-optional, we strongly recommend every PS5 gets this service, soon.

Overheating
Shutting down while gaming?
Sometimes your console stays off until it cools down, sometimes it comes right back up. Usually it complains about not being shut off the right way.
Overheating is dangerous for the PS3. Probably stop gaming on it until it's fixed.
We will clean the radiators and properly re-apply dried/oxidized thermal paste. Some fans can be upgraded or should be replaced.
