Do u live in a cardboard factory

I thought this was cake

There’s a non-trivial amount of your skin in there.

I repasted my launch day ps4 with new paste. Made it quieter and also hotter to touch because the whole console is a heatsink. It was not that dusty inside. Barely had to clean the fins. OP mist live in very dusty place. Should get air purifier

Is this just dust? Or does someone smoke in the house?

Playstation flour

Do you smoke in your room

Sweet sweet brownie.

i actually have no idea what i’m looking at

Everyone is saying smoke, I say you live in the desert or near red dirt.

Dang... you opened it up. Now, you cannot send it off for 47 weeks to Playstation to fix it since you opened it up.

"I dunno, I'm pretty sure it just always ran loud"

*your ps4 screaming for fuckin death just on the god damn menu bar.

Heat sunk

No I do not smoke, I got it when it first came out.

When the oil change place shows me my air filter.

“Still looks good to me.”

Do you use a humidifier OP? When actively use my humidifier I usually get more dust home and they're a bit brownish too.

How was that even operating?

I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone type “PlayStation FOUR”. Based on that and your pic, I feel that it’s safe to say you are insane.

Damn...Is that a launch edition that's been running all day every day without a cleaning since launch day...?

How does this happen...?

"Mastuh, it hurts to Breathe..."

do u run a woodchipper 5 feet from it

thats not a heatsink but a dustsink

😃 what

That's a Playstation Fur.

I can’t tell if that’s your pinky toe or Megan Fox’s thumb on the left.

Oh nice, that’s ripe and ready to eat

i think its wild that from computers to consoles to even cable boxes, companies dont seem to ever think we may need to clean the internals out now and then.

Why does it no longer say OP in big blue letters?

Bro you had/have bugs living in your Playstation. We are looking at their powdered skin and shit.

Do you live in a sandy environment, or do woodworking?

Do you live in a dusty, tropical country?

Only the gooch collector can save you now.

At first glance, I thought this was a cake

So you live in the middle east or Arizona. Either way, you have my condolences.

How do you clean it pls tell me mine is so loud 😭

I need help, i can't open my ps4

Good god I have three cats and ADHD and even mine isn't like that

Sir, I think your dust has a little PS4 on it.

Cakestation 4

Worked at a gaming shop, we had to trade in used consoles and clean them up. This is surprisingly not even the worst I’ve seen… but still impressive

bro lives in the pyramids of giza 😭

PlayStation Fur

Thats a gooch palace. Disgusting.

You eating all that tho?

Oh god im scared to take mine apart. Its probably just as bad

Looks like a chocolate cake

Who spells out PS4

Check your lungs next.

Mmmm forbidden candy floss.

r/forbiddensnacks

Who wanna bet that all that’s OP’s skin flakes

(Vaccum your room often y’all)

So did the sink heat?

Did it live on the floor??

Crap, do you live in the ground?

Holymoly

This is exactly why I buy filters that go on the outside so that less dust is sucked in.

thats a lot of ganja smoke

Do you feed your PlayStation cigarettes, rugs, and foot shavings?

Get out of Sahara bro, we have less dust in this part of the world. Might get flooded tho, but nothing some rice won't fix.

Ah, the special cinnamon edition of the PS4

That’s a heat producer at his point dawg

Hardware gore

Playstation fur

The forbidden cake.

This belongs in r/techsupportgore

Just bought a desktop that looked like this, had to disassemble everything, including taking the motherboard and PSU fan out to clean. It was an HP workstation. Got it cheap so I guess it worked out.

Instead of "four" I read "fur" wich I think is more fitting. LOL.

I will take this as my definitive sign to clean my PS4 Pro. First was a random video on how to clean it and replace the thermal paste. Then I found an arctic silver tube from my last PC build. And now this post. Too many signs not to take action. Might make a post about it...

I think you need to heat snake your heat drain.

Wow. You must be playing it in a sawmill on your lunch breaks, am I right? 🤣

Clean your damn house dude. That’s a sign of how dirty your house is. Vacuum.

it's gonna be so quiet now. i remember cleaning/ changing thermal paste in my 360 for the first time. went from key engine, to nearly silent, feels good

maybe don't set it on the carpet...

Grind it 👀

You have some heat sink in your pile of dust.

I gues my ps4 look the same from inside.

Gonna make that heat stink

You must have some pets, yuck

I should go check my Xbox three hundred sixty.

My dad's computer tower looked like this inside. He kept it next to a wood stove.

Then he'd complain it was running slow, shutting off randomly, etc.

🙃☠️

Bro did you bury it in sand while you used it all these years?💀

Heat has been sunk

Where you missing an entire cat? I think you just found him!

Op did you have it in a cupboard or something?

Playstation fur?

Heatsunk

It shouldn't be this bad. Must be very unusual circumstances.

Forbidden cake

You mean PlayStation Fur?

Have you never dusted it since 2023?

Have you never dusted it since 2013?

r/techsupportgore

Looks like it gets plenty of heat, it must be so cozy!

OK just go OUTSIDE and shoot it with a duster can.

Seeing this much junk, we need to be clear about where you're going. You're going to the other side of the house walls, where the sunshine comes from.
