Why does PS5 get loud?

The console fan pulls in air — along with dust, pet hair and lint. Over time dust packs onto the heatsink, air stops flowing, and the fan spins faster and faster to cool the chip. Result: loud noise, overheating, and if left untreated — shutdowns mid-game.

Another sign: if your PS5 suddenly turns off with an overheating warning — that's the advanced stage, dust has almost blocked the airflow.
