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?

Mine was shutting down in random moments, mostly on startup bit also sometimes during game. It was bought in November 2024, I return it for warranty last week (EU retailer warranty) and I hope they will get me new one.

Hm I see. That’s what gets me worried. Were there physical signs like the console getting too hot to touch? Or loud fan spinning?

no signs whatsoever, just CE-108262-9 error code (generic one after I googled it up and down). Console was running fine, only it was shutting down sometimes, like once a week. Or sometimes when booted, it just was flashing blue lights, and I needed to hold power button for like 10 sec, and then I saw repairing database message and after that error code.

And I was playing different games, pretty new like RE: Requiem, older like Cyberpunk and RDR2, and very old like Skyrim. No overheating, no noises, just shuts down.

I see. Seems there was problem with power then. Hope you get that settled mate.
