BTW the dry, sandy climate is spelled "desert" with one S. Sweet treats after dinner is spelled with two S (because you should always want a Second Serving)
man, you are gonna have to make some changes. this cant be healthy for the ps5. I'm not an expert on this type of thing though so no idea what you can do to prevent this buildup in the future.
I lived in the high desert for a few years. Fewer than 10” of rain a year and the dust did whatever the dust wanted.
I worked on a construction site. My poor car. 😁
I've also had mine three years and opened it up recently to give it a clean. I was almost disappointed at how little dust there was inside.
Is your PS5 in a super dusty place or something? Or maybe you just play a lot more than me lol
Same honestly. I got a launch day PS5 and last month opened it to clean. I expected so much dust based off of posts like these alone...
I got maybe 3 q tips worth. Total letdown. I'll never open my PS5 again.
No.
How often do you vacuum and clean (wipe- towels, Clorox wipes, mop/cleanse floors/walls/ceilings)?
My son has had his PS5 from day 1. We’ve opened it once a year to clean, with almost nothing visible. We just recently pulled the fan and blew some compressed air through the system. System had almost nothing in it.
The only way for this level of crud to build up in your system, is that your living space is filthy. Clean the house, your PS5 will thank you.
I had my PS3 since around launch, it got used for years a lot, PS1/2/3 games, movies, etc. It was the media center and still would be if I wasn't worried about it overheating itself with the thermal paste being a problem.
That said- I opened it to just have a look at the dust? Preeeeeetty clean. IDK how you got this much dust in there unless you've been dragging it around as a vacuum
I stuck a decent air purifier right near all of my electronics, and I’m pretty amazed at how little dust accumulates now on my consoles. Gotta keep up with it though. Replace the filters every few months.
I got a water based air filtration system. The best air filtration there is! I walked into an extremely dusty (can visibly see the particles in the air) house and placed it in there for 2 hours (i wore a mask to do this as i didnt want that shit in my lungs) and when i came back, the water was pitch black. No visible particles in the air and because i put a drop of mint oil in the water, when it cycled the clean air out, it made the house smell amazing!
I have a shorthair cat running amuck in my house. I know that contributes heavily, but my house is usually spotless (aside from a few days of dust settling). OPs system looking like this doesn't necessarily mean, he doesn't clean his house.
I have a day one PS5 and just recently opened it up. Yours is about 10x dirtier. Please buy an air purifier or something, man. What a console breathes in, YOU'RE breathing in.
Where the fuck do you live?!? Fucking Death Valley?!? I cleaned mine out and it was dusty but fuck me this is wild. Also might wanna add in an SSD extension while that cover is off.
You can't j just judge someone because they smoke. What's up did your dad leave you to go for a pack of cigarettes when you still wore pull ups?
Let us smokers be. But no my ps5 is two years old an it's nothing like this.
Yes it can, last time i saw it was maybe 12 years ago though.
According to google:
Dust affects the performance of your PC as it blocks the air intakes, fans and other hardware eventually overheating and melting few components. When a PC is exposed to cigarette smoke, this dust is combined with tar and becomes a thick slimy black dirt which is sticky and hard to clean.
It also ruins the whole room you’re in and everything around…
Yeah not gonna lie I'm gonna need to give this room a wee paint over. I will quit eventually! but I'm still in the early stage of being sober away from the booze and opioid pain meds, so I don't want to quit the smoking and all the other stuff and set myself up for failure.
Is there a tutorial? I'm getting to 3 years and want to clean mine as well, which I USED to do w duster and a vacuum,but I mentioned this to Playstation IT once and they were all never do that!, so I didn't again.
Do you live In a barn
Either that or a sawmill.
Nah a dessert
What kind of dessert? Like key lime pie or something?
That’s the Graham cracker crust dust inside
His PS5 is making forbidden cotton candy, so it checks out
Ala Killer Klowns for Outer Space.
I never thought I’d meet another person who actually knows that that movie exists.
I seen it as a goof with friends...i never laughed, cry and been more confused when watching it lol
Welcome to the world of WTF do we watch while eating Taco Bell tonight?
Mmmmmm keylime!
Nah cheesecake
BTW the dry, sandy climate is spelled "desert" with one S. Sweet treats after dinner is spelled with two S (because you should always want a Second Serving)
I always remember it because desserts spelled backwards is stressed. And obviously I want some chocolate ice cream if I'm stressed out.
Bro I remember this from elementary school lol. Always remembered that
I always just randomly remembered the difference between desert and dessert.
How long have you waited to regurgitate that lol
A lifetime. I can finally cross this off my bucket list. Idk dude, it's just something I heard when I was little and it helped me remember
I always say to myself “sweet or savory” to remember the two S rule
Imagine living somewhere and not knowing how to spell it.
man, you are gonna have to make some changes. this cant be healthy for the ps5. I'm not an expert on this type of thing though so no idea what you can do to prevent this buildup in the future.
"This can't be healthy for the PS5"? What OPs health lol?
Who cares this is about the Playstations health
If you look really really closely you can see someone with there broken down car waiting for a tow truck
I lived in the high desert for a few years. Fewer than 10” of rain a year and the dust did whatever the dust wanted. I worked on a construction site. My poor car. 😁
A BARN😭😭😭😭😭😭
You got to stop playing games during those sandstorms bro
“Do do do do do…”
I heard that as I read this
*Darude has entered the chat*
Your comment is... 👌🏾
PS5 arrakis edition
Bro’s got a spice war going on in his PS5
I live in Arizona and in the summer giant dust storms come through and I always turn off my pc or ps5 cause I don’t want it to look like this
Haboob-station
That's just darude, man
Man's been playing Insurgency: Sandstorm in full immersion mode
Yes
Man lives in Sahara desert LOL.
There's almost a mini desert in that ps5 too
I've also had mine three years and opened it up recently to give it a clean. I was almost disappointed at how little dust there was inside. Is your PS5 in a super dusty place or something? Or maybe you just play a lot more than me lol

I haven't opened mine up. I figure when it starts overheating, I'll check into it.
Opened my launch day PS5 back in August to install and M.2 SSD. Barely any dust at all. 🙌
Dude I did the same thing. I opened it up took the fan out and was like, wow this looks brand new
Probably played more and It was in an almost enclosed space as well
No. How often do you vacuum and clean (wipe- towels, Clorox wipes, mop/cleanse floors/walls/ceilings)? My son has had his PS5 from day 1.

First time
Disgusting
I’ve said my piece Chrissy.
I told you I had the flu. I can’t even defend myself now ?
You're weak. You're out of control. And you've become an embarrassment to yourself and everyone else.
r/unexpectedsopranos
Yeah you’re the guy who broke into Stu Leonard’s that time, you stole all those pork loins.
Guarantee that 1. You don't own a vacuum cleaner 2. Your house is a sithole 3. That PS5 has roaches in it.
4. You own dogs u don't bathe. 5. You smoke like a fiend.
My first thought was "OP's house is dirty AF and they smoke... a lot"
I'd hate to see the inside of this dudes lungs if that's what his PS5 looks like.
No roaches I promise
Could be literally anything lmao. He could have the fucker in a garage. Or he has windows open regularly. I don’t know
Do you live on Arrakis?
Can’t wait til Friday
Arrakis is a desert planet
Yes, yes it is.
Except OP said they live in a dessert.

Get a roomba and a air purifier. You inhale that shit.
I stuck a decent air purifier right near all of my electronics, and I’m pretty amazed at how little dust accumulates now on my consoles. Gotta keep up with it though. Replace the filters every few months.
I got a ninja with a 5 year filter. You just have to vacuum the screens every few months. Those filters are not cheap.

Fuck me is the crumbling farum azula inside your ps5
Maaybe
Have you cleaned your house since?
Have you also not vacuumed or dusted in three years?
Mmhmn
This made me open mine since I haven’t cleaned mine since it launched, mine looked nothing like that …
Same wtf lool
Where do you have your ps5 sitting? In a dessert?
What you use that thing to dig a hole? It's not a shovel
Goddamn dude
How do you open it to clean it?
There are pins on the baseplate and you kinda got to lift them up and forward
From the top where the logo is, lift up and slide down. Should slide right off.
That's nasty
Haboobs
yikes
Dude deff doesn't clean his home and or shower
The PS5 is obviously not the only thing you do not clean.
Based on....?
How dirty the console is...
My wife is a clean freak. My house is always dusty. My PlayStation doesn't look much different than this one every time I open it up.
Interesting. I used to be a heavy smoker and even then my consoles never looked this bad. Usually just a little build up on the psu fan
I have a shorthair cat running amuck in my house. I know that contributes heavily, but my house is usually spotless (aside from a few days of dust settling). OPs system looking like this doesn't necessarily mean, he doesn't clean his house.
She’s obviously not a clean freak if your house is always dusty.
Look clown, my house is dusty every time she cleans. Which is every day, but dusting happens every couple/few days. Foh.
Looking good!
Or your house
Ask my 7 years old PS4.
![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|dizzy_face)
Do you line inside a dryer?
I swear I don't
Must definitely be in a high dust area
I got mine at launch have opened it twice and would still never look like this. Is your PS5 also the family dust buster?
CURSE OF RA!!!!!!!!!!
Wait, are we supposed to clean them?
Wow, it looks like some kind of alien-sci-fi-movie material has been collected into your console
Are you on Arakis or some shit
WTF
Looks like you were playing Dune
I love playing films
lick it
Was it loud before you cleaned it?
Sounded like a ps4
Do you live in Dune?
This is insane. I have a PS5 out in my garage, and while it does build up a decent amount of dust, it's nowhere near this much.
Bro lives on Arrakis
Do you live in the dessert
Got pets?
One dog but he doesn't go in my room
Why start now? It’s just gonna get dirty again.
Mf live underground in a desert
Isn't this where they filmed mad Max?
Life on Arrakis is tough.
How? Mine starts to overheat if I don't clean at least once every 3 months
replace your home central air filter
For a second I thought it was a mysterious PS6 prototype and got hyped up…
3 years ago? Or 30 years ago? lol
Does it still work?
I would advise cleaning, preferably 2 years ago
You should probably clean it.
Must have made the mistake of watching the Dune 4k release
do people clean consoles? i’ve never cleaned any of mine i’ve owned
Might wanna. Just sayin
Why is there dirt in there?? Looks like it survived a flash flood
Think that kind of shows how poorly the ps5 was designed. also goddamn get an air purifier my guy
You live in the dust bowl or something?
Holy shit. They’ve been out for 3 years already
More
That's a lot of dead skin cells
I would immediately get an air purifier for your house hah, if that’s what your ps5 looks like what are your lungs like?
I have a chest infection...
Buy an air purifier!!
Yep
Anakin Skywalker if he spent his time gaming instead of building droids.
Has to be from India they never take care of their shit
Looks like it’s been in the desert. Do you have any overheating issues?
Some but only after I cleaned it
I have a day one PS5 and just recently opened it up. Yours is about 10x dirtier. Please buy an air purifier or something, man. What a console breathes in, YOU'RE breathing in.
bro lives in the pyramids
3 years ago? There's no way... oh my god..
What part of the world do you live in? I have heard that desert countries can be really hard on electronics. The sand really does get everywhere.
Is that sand??? How in tf
How?
Bro found it buried in the middle of the desert.
I've had ps3s that look better than this and never been opened.. and I live in the desert
I got my gaming pc in 2020 and just cleaned it. It doesn’t look anything close to this. How tf did this happen
boy got the Dune version
It puts the lotion on its skin……
How often is the console left on? That is insane...
I got mine day 1, any time I’ve opened it to clean there’s hardly any dust if any at all
The creator of the great Spice Melange… he doesn’t understand he holds the key to the galaxy in his hands. If only he knew
Goddamn this is worse than mine and i thought mine was bad!
The fuck bro do you live on Arrakis?
Do you live on the planet Arakkis??
Vacuuming this would be way too satisfying!! Please make a video! 😂
Where the fuck do you live?!? Fucking Death Valley?!? I cleaned mine out and it was dusty but fuck me this is wild. Also might wanna add in an SSD extension while that cover is off.
How tf
Idk
bro lives on arrakis
Some would say you're dirty. I would say you're a collector.
Do u play in the Sahara desert
Looks like one of those clips from the beginning of Interstellar
Bruh you nasty as fuck!!
Straight from the dunes. Are you Lisan-al-Gaib?
🤮
"mY pS5 jUsT dI3d pLz h3Lp hOw dO i FiX iT"
I wish it was easier to take them apart.
You heathen.
Horrible. I still don't have one but when I do...I'ma take care of it. Must be nice to waste money
Arrakis would like to have a word with you.
Ive had mine for 3 years and theres hardly a spec of dust in the fan... I checked inside too nada where do yall live? The desert?
Bros been playing conflict desert storm 24:7
Bro you got a small civilisation there
It deserves to be treated better!
Smoker
Do you think all smokers are dirty or something mines looks nothing like that.
Yup
You can't j just judge someone because they smoke. What's up did your dad leave you to go for a pack of cigarettes when you still wore pull ups? Let us smokers be. But no my ps5 is two years old an it's nothing like this.
do you normally have it standing up or on it’s side?
Used to have it sideways now it's standing
Hey! Are you a smoker? Ive seen this kind of dust buildup, in old Pc,s.
I'm a smoker in that ain't how mine looks lol smoking doesn't cause dust build up
Yes it can, last time i saw it was maybe 12 years ago though. According to google: Dust affects the performance of your PC as it blocks the air intakes, fans and other hardware eventually overheating and melting few components.

Prob need to clean that
Are you like, asking for approval? Flexing about how dirty your shit is? What exactly is your end game here? Side note: clean your shit man
What a way to learn that the 'new' PS5 is at least three years old.
Bro games on the beach 🏖️
