design flaw is..the fact that the fans pull the air OUT of the ps4, When that side is an intake…
is the fan loud?
Hey I just got it right now and I just want to know does it work automatically or do you have to wait until a Console start to heat up I don't hear the fan
I put an extra fan mod for the heatsink and a window with a dust filter, I used nh t1 thermal paste aswell. This helps a lot, now it my ps4 is some what silent.
Leeets get rooooight into the reviews!
Any cooling fan that blows air into/onto your pc/console vents, blows MORE air and dust into your system. Yes it CAN keep it cool for the time being but in the long run you are going to have major dust build up. IF you are going to have a system set up like this, I would advise doing a bi-monthly cleaning by removing the outer shell of your PS4. It's super easy and takes zero skill. 4 screws(T8 or T9 screwdriver) hold the bottom shell and it comes off very easy, once it is off the fan is right there which would allow you to clean out the dust (and the dust build up stuck in the outer shell casing too) with either canned air or vacuum (make sure you cover half the vacuum hose with cardboard or a thick sheet of paper) and that should help.
OR you can get an exhaust type cooler that sucks the air and the heat while having a semi air tight clasp and it's own power supply(not USB power)
Is it a loud fan ?
will PS4 attack X1 with the stand, and will X1 be able to see it since it's not a stand user?
why not a AUX headset, You can plug in on the controller.
Does it make the PS4 quieter?
I thought his was a keemstar rip off!!
get 2017 version
Does this work for the PS4 slim?
Does the PS4 pro fit in it?
height of stand?
do i press the button to turn on of offsorry i cant tell
Will they make one for the pro?
Does the ps4 have usb plugin on it
What if I have the nyko data bank will that be safe
You can connect an arcade stick as a MADCATZ or hori in the usb hub?
can the discs come out of the ps4 vertically?
My PS4 sounds like a jet taking off, will the fans from this stand make my PS4 sound noticeably quieter??
Will this work with ps4 pro?
ok what i dont understand is the heat is coming from the back of the console why is it cooling the side of it?
Will my usb sound card work with the usb ports on there and will my mic work aswell.
bought iiiiiiit
plz, what direction the air of the fans goes? up toward the ps4?
… um … there's vents on the sides, where the PS4 is sitting … and whatever fan is just blowing the heat back IN the system as it's trying to push it out. How does that cool it off?
Quick tip connect it to a wall adapter instead that way you are not using power from your ps4
Let's get rooiight into the news
Can you play the ps4 while its in the stand
nice intro never seen it before
Many people think that this will help cooling but for me, I was curious about that Cooling Mod, I know the inside is fan but I was scared because it can collect dust when you play for long hours then the next day, it will release dust not cooling…….maybe IDK, no bashing please
I love everything about it except the vertical orientation…makes me nervous. Plus my ps4 and other systems fit best horizontally under the TV in the shelves…
Would it stop old ps4s from overheating
How long is it? the space im going to put my ps4 is a about 14""
where is the air coming from that the fans send into the ps4? I don't see any vents on the stand, leads me to believe that it is just recycling hot and dusty air from under the stand. Seems like a horrible idea. I've read that external cooling fans are actually horrible for your system. They need to be moving fresh cooler air through the system and on top of that blowing air into the system instead of pulling air from it is very bad. Am interested in one of these but I need better reasoning as to why instead of blindly doing it.
The vertical stand is awesome…. Keeps my ps4 cool, charges my controllers, and it is cheaper in Ebay…. Less than, $20, so think about investing in this item
I use space to cool my ps4, and a dust sweeper. And once in a while I give it a deep clean.
Can you leave this on all the time when ps4 is on or just when it overheats?
why are there so many brands that look the same? I've seen kootek, smaac and this one on this video. like wtf? which is official and works best. someone one on the kootek review mentioned an issue with that button which looks like the one for the Ortz. I like the charging dock and USB ports but the fan is a huge plus but I'm debating which to get?
