PS5 WILL NOT Have PS4 Biggest Problem

My PS4 Pro is just as loud as my launch PS4.  If all you play is PS4, maybe you just don't realize how loud it is.  I even find Witcher 3 more enjoyable on Switch docked because of how much quieter it is compared to my PS4.  When I got my X1, it suprised me how much more quiet it was as well considering the 360 was loud as hell.

I would not call it the PS4's biggest problem, nor a problem that ruins the game.  Headset and turning the TV way up helps.  But I have had 3 different PS4s of varying models in my home, and all of them are the loudest console in the house.  My phat PS3 is even quieter TBH.

With that in mind, I have to question the honesty of a person who claims the PS4 is quiet unless they truly have no other console to compare it to.

I have PC also for gaming and it is very loud for gaming. My PS4 Pro is not loud (bought it in 2018).

But no problem, it's always nice to be called a liar when I say the truth. Thank you.

If you have a PC that is very loud and that is what you are comparing your PS4 to, it very well could sound quiet to you (I would look into that, cause that must be one loud PC).

Compared to any other console however, it sounds like a jet engine.  I got my PS4 Pro after God of War was released, so not an old model.  Has always been noisy as hell.  Same with my launch PS4 and a later model that I got for my son as well.  The only other console that is similar would be the 360, which also sounded like a jet.  My X1 and Switch are both near silent, and my PS3 to this day is quieter as well.

I an just pointing out that all evidence I have seen as well as the vast majority of PS4 owners out there it seems are claiming the PS4, PS4 slim, and PS4 Pro are loud as heck compared to other consoles.  Do with that info what you will, but if all you can compare you Pro to is a loud PC I can see why you might not realize the issue.
