Can a Ps4 overheat if it is covered on top and has no space on the top?

Ka

Yes, of course, if the ventilation slots are blocked

ra

Yes, it can, because hot air rises and if there's no space there, the warm air can't escape, which can lead to a build-up of heat.

As a result, the Playstation would overheat.

Ar

Sure, but nothing can break…

Br

Yes, but the ventilation slots are in the back

Ka

Well then everything should be gucci

Br

So nothing bad is happening?

Am

If the large area is covered, nothing happens. Behind the console must be free. Both over and on the side.

Ar

No, in the worst case it switches itself off.
