Pirat_Nation 🔴(@Pirat_Nation):An older PS5 has developed a serious overheating problem because its liquid metal cooling damaged the heatsink. A repair technician found that the liquid metal had dried up in one area and damaged the heatsink. Luckily, the PS5’s main chip was still fine. Sony uses liquid metal because it moves heat away from the chip very well, but after years of use the liquid metal can move or dry out, causing cooling problems.
