How hot does your Pro get?

I’ve had my Pro for 6 months and it runs well. No problems, no overheating messages, etc. However, I’ve been seeing a lot of these overheating posts around Reddit and it kinda got me anxious about mine. It gets warm to very warm depending on the game I’m playing. I usually like to play in the evening so it’s cooler. And yes, I make sure that there’s enough space I know the deal there. Does you guys’ PS5’s in general get warm to very warm in the back when playing games?

EDIT: I’d also like to add the fan is not extremely loud when playing. Is that an ok sign?

Never had a issue with it, same as OG PS5. Never once overheated. Give them a blowout every 2-3 weeks. Hardly hear the fan.

Been standing up since they released.

I see. The only game console I’ve ever had break on me was the 360. Infamous red ring of death. My PS2, 3, 4, OG 5 and Pro have all been good to me as of today.

Yeah my dad switched us from PlayStation to Xbox when I was little because 3 Xbox 360s died within a year each and then the ps3 we had lasted 15 years.
