When I get close to my PS4 Pro I hear a slight rattle. Guess the fans. Is that bad? (NO I'm not screwing anything!)
Yeah, if these are really the fans, it can cause heat problems because the fan is likely to hit something or something has broken off or something.
Heat problems can btw. As a result, the console rubs and you lose performance, which is very unfortunate.
Yes is bad because rattling is annoying…
That's it.
As long as it rattles you know it is running.
Is often the result of bearing damage from the fan but then does no further damage.
As long as he is still airing it is not bad at first. If at some point you don't hear anything anymore, I would be worried because no cooling is not good for the hardware. Without screwing on or other interventions, I can't really say anything more.
First try to remove the dust as far as you can get, if that doesn't work you have to unscrew it or take it to someone who can do it, but it can quickly get very expensive, especially if only one screw is loose or something
You can have it sent in if I annoy you so much, it just needs a lot of cleaning, it shouldn't be
