How to correctly place a PlayStation 5 | Digital Trends Spanish

The arrival of the PlayStation 5 on the market posed a particular problem for gamers, since given the dimensions of the console, the question remained about what is the best position for the platform to be placed.

This question has increased these days, after images show the effects that the system could have if it was placed vertically, as a result of the liquid metal that works as an intermediary between the processor core and the base of the heatsink.

Although at the time, Yasuhiro Ootori, Sony’s executive vice president of hardware engineering and operation, said that it did not matter where the PS5 was placed with respect to its cooling, the issue is still latent, so here we go to teach which way your console can be placed.

You will be interested:

Place it horizontally

It seems that the best option is to establish our PlayStation 5 horizontally, as long as the liquid metal does not fight against gravity and thus does not expose the upper areas of the glass, which would generate operating problems such as reboots and unexpected blackouts.

In case we opt for this option, there are two possibilities: one is to put the PS5 on its side and another with the base in a horizontal position.

Under the above, it is convenient to recommend placing the latter, in order to avoid bumps or scratches on the structure of the console.

To do this, we must rotate the hook of the support, so that it is located in the northwest area of ​​the elevated part of the base. After this, the console should be with the back facing up and the PS5 logo facing us.

Later, we place the hooks of the support on top of the squares where some platform symbols are located.

As always, it is recommended to place the PS5 at least 10 centimeters away from any wall, in order to have effective heat dissipation, in addition to avoiding carpets or cloths that cover the air outlet.

Place it vertically

For reasons of space, it is possible that we maintain the idea of ​​​​placing the console vertically, in addition to the fact that despite the existence of these problems with liquid metal, they are still specific cases and not in the tonic.

In that sense, what we can do is again use the support that comes with the console, which has a screw, which is easily placed from the base of the console, with the PlayStation 5 logo facing us.

In this case, we have to be careful that the hooks of the support are correctly aligned with the piece raised from the middle.

We have to make sure that the console, with the back, is facing up and the bottom towards us.

As always, the measure we take is up to us, both for comfort and for space. If it is for security, we will have to continue trusting from what we are told by Sony or remember what we learned in school and not make the liquid metal fight against gravity.
