Can the PS5 fan get better with updates? It's what Sony wants to do with its future console and APU updates.
With the enormous size and power of the PS5, one of the doubts falls on the fan. Its enormous size and the need for component cooling indicates that it may need higher consumption, and with it deterioration and noise. But even in that they have thought of Sony and they are going to make adjustments to optimize the fan in the console updates.

Console fan updates
In an interview with the Japanese portal 4Gamer, a Sony representative explained plans to optimize the PS5's fan performance. This will be done based on the APU behavior data in each game.
It means that, for example, if you see that in Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart the fan does not cool enough in some moments but in others it generates a higher energy consumption than necessary, an update can make it adapt to each moment of use. that game. He commented that they will be collecting usage data from all possible games and adding them in updates to the system and the games themselves.
The fan issue is surprisingly one of the most talked about heading into the launch of the PS5. The one on PlayStation 4 is known to sound a lot, especially in the most demanding games like The Last of Us: Part II on a PlayStation 4 Pro. Wanting to make the PS5 fan sound less and more efficient indicates that they have read a lot of user complaints about the noise that the predecessor makes. It will be necessary to see if they comply with this throughout the many years of life that await the console.
