I can't help but wonder if the PS4 may have some overheating issues. There does not appear to be much in the way of venting on that box.



I don't know if it's a direct coorelation. PS3 didn't have a power brick and it didn't have overheating issues (the launch models fans are loud though). The 360 did have a brick and overheating issues were the biggest cause of hardware failure.

I have a launch model PS3. I've had no hardware failures but you are right. That thing can get VERY loud.

Vents on the PS4 -







Both consoles will be whisper quiet and I doubt either will have any overheating issues.

They aren't loud, they are loud as frick. I have to wear noise cancelling headphones practically. i still have the 60gb fat ps3 and when I have time I intend to open it up, clean it, maybe even reapply thermal paste and hope that helps.
