But the Series X was stood upright in the same location, and the One S and PS4 were both played in the same compartment that the PS5 is in now (towards the end I had both in there together which obviously wasn't ideal)

This PS5 is louder than both those old consoles playing things like Warzone which push them hard, even when the PS5 is in rest mode.

The Series X in the same position is genuinely inaudible it's incredible.

Think I've just been unlucky with the specific console I got to be honest. Will see about getting a repair/replacement in a few months when things settle down.

Yeah mate, might have lost the build quality lottery on that one. It happens.

Once again I'll say it though, the X is far better designed for airflow. Genuinely impressed with it so far.

Hard to complain when I have another next gen console and plenty are struggling to get 1 aswel! Just one of those things

It plays games and plays them well so it's grand for now, just a tad annoying

Did you check the fix linked in this thread? Apparently it could be a loose sticker near a fan inside or something :lol:

I'm not risking shit like that mate I already hate that I have to put a clip on stand on it in fear I'm doing it wrong :lol:
 
The footage I’ve seen most multi plat games like Ass Creed are running better on PS5 and the new PS games put it about 10 years ahead of the Xbox already.

Xbox have done well in upgrading older games but up against what Sony are offering? nowhere near for me.
10 years :lol:

And by most multiplat games you mean that single one, which is due to optimisation. What about WZ being in 120 on the X but 60 max on the PS5?

:lol: does your Mrs do all the DIY in your house?

I wouldn't be 100% opening up a new console tbh, would have to watch 50 videos of people opening them first just to be sure!
 
Having to open up your brand new PS5 just so it doesn’t make a racket :lol:

Can’t believe they still think they have a leg to stand on.
 

They’re not even ‘A list‘ exclusives and are still better than anything Xbox will put out for the next 12 months. In the coming months we get Ratchet and Clank and Gran Turismo that will be about 6-7 solid exclusives within the first few months......how long will it take Microsoft to release 6-7 solid exclusives?

One thing that Microsoft has over Sony at the moment is their support of 1440p, pissing me off not being able to play on my monitor.

Nah, taking these things apart isn't tough. Just takes a little care is all. But I wouldn't do it on a new machine anyway, not until it gets worse that it.

That's a hard YES! :lol:

I'm bored of the fanboy shite now :lol: was funny for about a week.

Now it's just a yawnfest.

Just give us actual news and gameplay footage and stuff.

All you going through 20 articles to find one bad article about something to do with the console you're not in love with.

Yes or her Dad. I can set up any electronics obviously but that's about it.

Every time her Dad is round doing something I stand by awkwardly offering help. I'm just getting in the way and slowing him down and we both know it, but I feel like a dick sat somewhere else whilst he does work on my house.

There was that time she asked him to come round to put a clock up though, which was obviously the worst moment of my life.

Unless you a dwarf like Elvis, how hard is that?

:lol: poor bloke must shake his head everytime he sees you and wonder how his daughter ended up with such a poor specimen of a man!

I get it though, I used to be shite at DIY, still am tbh, but I just give it a go nowadays, enough videos on YouTube to get you through just about anything. Best in your own house too because you can take your time over the littlest of tasks.

Look at the guy who caused all this scurrying away because PlayStation is in the mud
 
Maybe not the right place to ask this but reckon someone here will know the answer.

I'm going to have both Xbox and ps5, and have a projector and a TV, however I want a hdmi switch so I can switch between screens for each console, so would need 2 in ports I think? And 2 out ports? Preferably a one with a remote too.

Also, I'd want to be able to use both at the same time, one on proj and one on tv. Is there a switch which makes this possible?

You need a matrix. I use a 4x2 matrix so I have 4 inputs going to 2 outputs. Any of the 4 inputs can be going to any of the outputs but mine drops resolution if 1 input is split between 2 outputs. Maybe new ones don't do this...

Would that allow me to use both screens at the same time with different inputs?
 
So Xbox series x is better at 60fps but ps5 is better at 120fps? That's weird.

Mentioned neither has a real problem during gameplay though and you probably wouldn't notice anyway.

Good for both consoles.

Not really that weird, most systems perform better under pressure when the GPU is made to work hard. Also the PS5 has less of a bottleneck in the I/O area, so it actually makes sense.
