PS5 Liquid Metal Replacement
One of the most effective long-term thermal upgrades for PS5 models is professional liquid metal replacement. Liquid metal conducts heat far better than standard thermal paste, which can lower CPU and GPU temperatures and stabilize performance under sustained load. Our technicians carefully disassemble the PS5, PS5 Slim or PS5 Pro, clean the original interface, inspect pads and caps, and install a controlled quantity of certified liquid metal. We take anti-corrosion precautions and recoat heat spreaders when necessary so the replacement is safe and durable. Liquid metal is an advanced service — when performed correctly it reduces thermal throttling, loud fan spin-ups and random shutdowns.
Console Cleaning and Dust Removal
Dust buildup is the #1 cause of noisy fans and overheating in consoles. Over months of heavy gaming, fine dust and pet hair accumulate inside vents, on heatsinks, and around fan bearings. Our PS5 cleaning service includes full disassembly, compressed-air dust removal, precision vacuuming, and ultrasonic cleaning of intake grills when required. We inspect the fan assembly, clean fan blades, and check bearings for wear. If a fan shows excessive wobble or noise we can replace or refurbish it. Regular dust removal restores airflow and reduces fan speed during load, improving both acoustics and performance.
Console Overheating Repair
Overheating can manifest as loud fan noise, FPS drops, graphical glitches, or random shutdowns. Our overheating repair workflow starts with a thorough diagnostic: thermal imaging, system log analysis, and stress testing to identify hotspots. Common fixes include fan cleaning or replacement, heatsink reseating, thermal paste rejuvenation or liquid metal application, and in rare cases, board-level repair for VRM or power delivery faults. We test consoles after repair under real gaming loads to ensure temperatures remain within spec and that random shutdowns are resolved.
Real repair example: A customer in Coquitlam brought in a PS5 that exhibited loud fan noise and intermittent shutdowns after 30–40 minutes of play. Diagnostic steps: visual inspection (heavy dust layer on intake and heatsink), thermal imaging (GPU junction temp spiking), and fan RPM logging (fan stuck at max RPM). Repair steps: full disassembly, deep dust removal from intake and heatsink fins, fan cleaning and bearing lubrication, inspection of thermal pads, and replacement of degraded thermal paste with high-quality thermal compound. During inspection we found uneven contact on the GPU heat spreader; we corrected seating and applied liquid metal to the GPU for improved thermal conductivity. After reassembly and extended stress testing, the GPU temps dropped by 12–15°C under load, fan RPMs stabilized, audible noise decreased significantly, and the random shutdowns stopped. The client returned to gaming in Burnaby and Port Moody with a quieter, more reliable console.
Signs Your Console Needs Service
- Loud fan noise even at idle or moderate load
- High exhaust temperatures or hot-to-the-touch chassis
- Random shutdowns or reboots during gameplay
- Performance issues such as stuttering, frame drops or thermal throttling
- Visible dust coming from vents or clogged intake grills
- Blowing warm air continuously or fans running at max speed
If you notice any of the above in your PS5, PS5 Slim, or PS5 Pro, it’s a good idea to bring it in for a checkup before a minor problem becomes a costly repair.
Why Thermal Management Matters
Thermal management is critical to console longevity and performance. Modern consoles like the PS5 and Xbox Series X pack powerful CPUs and GPUs into compact enclosures. When heat isn’t dissipated efficiently the system reduces clock speeds to protect hardware, resulting in lower performance and choppy gameplay. Prolonged high temperatures accelerate component wear — thermal pads dry out, capacitors age faster, and solder joints can develop issues. Proactive maintenance (fan cleaning, dust removal, thermal paste or liquid metal updates, and heatsink inspections) preserves performance and extends the usable life of your console.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I get my PS5 cleaned?
For most households, a professional cleaning every 12–18 months is sufficient. If you have pets, smoke indoors, or run your console for many hours daily, consider cleaning every 6–12 months to prevent dust buildup.
Is liquid metal replacement safe for my PS5?
When performed by trained technicians using the proper materials and anti-corrosion procedures, liquid metal replacement is safe and highly effective. We avoid liquid metal on parts where it could migrate and short circuits, and we take steps to protect surrounding components.
Can I clean my PS5 myself?
You can do basic external cleaning and compressed air use, but improper disassembly or excessive compressed air can damage fans or push dust deeper into the unit. For comprehensive dust removal, fan bearing inspection, or liquid metal work, professional service is recommended.
Why does my PS5 make loud noises even after cleaning?
Loud noise after cleaning may indicate worn fan bearings, a bent fan blade, or degraded thermal contact causing fans to run at higher RPMs. We perform a full diagnostic to identify the root cause and replace or refurbish the affected components.
Do you offer warranty on repairs?
Yes — we provide a limited warranty on parts and labor for repairs performed at Moe Repair. Warranty terms vary by service type; our team will outline the coverage before starting any work.
