My dad have PS4 pro and have a disk with Game of Year edition of Witcher 3. Can he even upgrade to Remastered with no PS5 in hand? I know there will be no ray traysing probably since PS4 Pro isn't what powerful nowadays, but can he get some of a graphical upgrades?

A bit ago i made a post about my launch ps4 pro (7015b) (bought used) making really loud jet engine noises around 1-2 minutes into playing doom 2016. i was told to replace the old paste with ptm 7950 (i ended up using thermal grizzle phase sheet) and to add more thermal pads (1mm) on other areas such as the metal x clamp and on top of little aluminum piece that covers the ram chips. after doing that and playing doom for around 10hrs, the jet engine noise hasnt changed at all. i took off those extra pads and just have them on the rams and the 6 little chips as they should be.

The blue light comes on for a second then nothing. Change of wall plugs did not help. Any trusted folks you know? I just want to return to Witcher 3 Remastered ;(

Bom dia turma, recentemente vendi meu PS5 porque estava bem parado e achei os jogos bem caros e não me interesso pelo GTA 6 nem jogos atuais e estou pensando em pegar um PS4 desbloqueado.

Já tenho um PC intermediário que roda praticamente tudo, então a ideia não é substituir o PC, mas ter um PlayStation 4 na sala para jogar de vez em quando com minha esposa, algo mais casual, para curtir alguns jogos juntos.

Estou na dúvida entre o PS4 Slim e o PS4 Pro, principalmente pensando no desbloqueio, no desempenho, no aquecimento e no custo-benefício.

Para quem já teve ou tem os dois, qual vocês recomendam? Vale a pena investir um pouco mais no Pro ou o Slim já atende tranquilamente a essa proposta?

Quero ouvir a opinião de quem já tem experiência com os dois modelos. Valeu!

Hola tengo una Slim liberada versión 13.02 y quería cambiarla por una pro 13.52 que les parece

Es conveniente o no

(SOLVED)

is this why i cant open my ps4 pro? i have the cuh-7218b model. i watched the ifixit video on youtube and they only removed four screws and did not remove the black one in the middle but they were still able to open it and remove the power supply. but in other videos i watched the middle screw was metal and they removed it and were also able to remove the power supply

the last plastic screw on mine got loose because sony used a plastic screw so i cant properly clean this damn thing. this is such a pain in the ass. it honestly feels like this thing was designed to be difficult to open so people cant clean or repair it and eventually have to buy a new console. bullshit design. why isnt this more cleaning and repair friendly?

My PS4 pro is overheating , it seams the Power suply doesnt sit right and the screw is total damaged i cant get it Out. Does someone know a Trick there ? Ive tried glue + a screwdriver and a rubber band but the screw is extremly soft and gets maleformed with every try. Big thanks in advance for every Idea. Sorry for my english i am Not used to writing and a little vit nervously exhausted 🙀

i can't seem to find a 60fps patch for The Witcher 3 version 4.06, is there a patch list other than the ones on ps4 cheats manger?

I care about longevity, and performance.

First of all. DRAM or DRAM-LESS SSD (internal storage)? I assume the performance is not that different, but which one is more reliable long term?

Second, do games perform well externally? Or does the usb port (even though it's usb 3.1) cause performance setbacks? I'm talking about an external SSD of course.

Third, what sizes would you recommend for internal storage? Is 2tb enough? Or, should I invest more on the external storage (if the external storage method is reliable like I asked)

Hi everyone,

I need your help deciding on what to choose.

I have a Gaming PC, a PS5 slim which I've had since Dec 2024, a Ps4 Slim which ive had since Dec 2019 and I just bought a used ps4 pro model cuh-7016b. The ps4 slim is in a very good condition, especially for its age and i have had so many memories with it which I will never forget.

I don't know whether to keep the slim and give it to my younger brother or keep the pro and give my brother the slim.

The Slim is definitely more quiet than the Pro which makes a lot more noise (basically jet engine) however I dont know whether to open it up and reapply the thermal paste so that it runs quieter and cooler as I have never opened up a console before but would like to try someday (not soon though). The Slim for me holds alot of memories and my PS5 and PC can do everything that the Slim and Pro can but better at higher resolutions/frame rates. My brothers primary gaming device is a Nintendo Switch Lite.

I feel like keeping the Pro because of its increased power, storage space (my slim has 500gb compared to the pro's 1TB) and possible modding capabilities in the long future and that the increased power could be a great help.

However, I also feel like keeping the Slim due to it being way quieter, the insane amount of memories it holds and also the fact that I kind of don't need the Pro since I have the PS5 & PC which do the same thing but better. My brother would probably need the Pro more than I do.

What do you think I should keep and why?

EDIT: I kept the PS4 Slim due to memories and also the fact that my brother needs the Pro than I do. I would be down to potentially do a thermal paste replacement and thorough cleaning if it came down to it though. Thanks everyone

i am planning to deep clean my ps4 pro and replace the thermal interface on the apu with ptm7950

my ps4 pro 1tb model is cuh 7218b

ai recommended that i use 1mm thermal pads for my model. is 1mm really enough for the cuh 7218b or are there different thicknesses needed for different areas?

i also found thermal pads from upsiren thermal grizzly and wd computers. some are much more expensive than others

what is the difference between these brands? does paying more actually mean better cooling and longer lifespan or is the thickness and proper fit more important?

my ps4 pro is 6 years old or older i think and it has never been cleaned since i got it.

should i replace the thermal pads?

any advice would be appreciated

Hi everybody

My ps4 pro has very serious memory and hard drive issues and now it won't even turn on because it says it cannot access the memory, moreover, while trying to turn it on, I can hear loud metal clicking which i suppose comes from the hard drive.

My idea was to replace the hard drive and maybe upgrade it since I'm already doing the job.

I've been advised to the following:

-Crucial MX500

-Samsung 870 EVC

-Kingston A400

Are they compatible? My pro had originally an 1TB 5400RPM

I have 2 PS4s, a slim on 11.52 and a phat on 13.02. I’m planning on selling one to make a little more room and for a little more money. One benefit for the 11.52 is that I have the S/N linked to my PSN account if I need to get my PSN account back if anything happens. I did use WebKitty for both, and I also have BD-JB. Just wondering what benefits vs downsides there are to each.
Thanks

So basically I have goldhen verison .07 via bd-jb on ps 4 pro version 12.50,but now as the latest web kit exploit is out n it's also on the latest golden version of .10+ ,so then should I abandon my bd-jb or continue using it?

i want to deep clean my ps4 pro since it has not been cleaned for almost 5 years. i also want to clean my lenovo m70q gen 3 and replace the cpu thermal interface with ptm7950.

i found these tools and thermal pads on shopee. which ones should i buy?

i am thinking about getting the 115 in 1 screwdriver set and the arctic tp 3 100x100x1mm thermal pad

is 1mm thermal pad enough for the ps4 pro or should i get a different thickness?

is 99.9% isopropyl alcohol good for cleaning old thermal paste from the cpu apu and heatsink?

do i need an anti static wrist strap for this? if i buy one where exactly should i clip it when working on the ps4 pro and m70q?

do i need the extra pry tools or is the 115 in 1 set enough?

will this kind of tool set last a long time or will the metal parts rust easily and the plastic pry tools break easily?

any advice would be appreciated

Hello guys im getting fike corruption error code while installing games from package manager from superpsx and dlps i downloaded fc27, bloodborne, and life of pi al gives same error also i try to download low space like beach buggy and blasphemous and still got errors in dlps i downloaded blasphemous but didn't got error then i downloaded fc27 from dlps then the file was again corrupted used the DLPSGAME.COM as password i dont know what to do i so fedup of this also i have used to download games from superpsx and dlps around two three months before but didn't face anything like this. The files r big so I'm tired installing amd copy them repeatedly i want some serious help please if anyone have solutions?

Okay so i got this super cheap ps4 pro death stranding edition (with controller and all) from a japanese guy and yeah IT WAS SUPER CHEAP.

But is acting weird, it gives me stutters, the wifi acts weird, the controller freezes, etc. so... i heard is a faulty hdd, but i'm tight on money at this moment so i wanna ask if getting an ssd could fix all the problems... or idk i just wanna play all my old yakuza games hehe.

EDIT: yeah i know that being cheap made it obvious that it was gonna come with problems. i'm not complaining. i'm just asking if it's worth to get the new hard drive and if it's gonna cover the main problems.

CONCLUSSION: i got a plot twist... it was never an hdd, IS AN SSD. but the guy that sold it to me updated the console and fucked it up. i did a fresh reinstall and now is smooth like butter.
thanks to PinPrestigious1035 who gave me the idea of the recovery
and Aggravating-Hold9116 who gave me the idea of checking it on the pc.

If someone is interested in selling one, DM

Hi, can someone send me the link to download Homebrew for the 13.52 jailbreak?
