yea I hadn't seen the dimensions till that size comparison it's like oddly small, I wonder if they do a discless version if it'll be even smaller.


I suppose since it's bulkier it doesn't need to be as tall, the design was clearly done as a choice for both consoles so I wonder how they will both stand with sound/cooling.


I don't recall seeing the back of the PS5 or if the top has any vents, but the Xbox looks to have a good design in terms of cooling as the vents seem to be on top, where heat rises to escape at. If there's even a single fan at the bottom blowing upwards -- even if it's like a 20-50mm fan, prime cooling for the Xbox.


I haven't seen the back either but Xbox have shown their design and how the airflow would work: twitter.com/xbox/status/123952213...85?lang=en

The PS5 I have a few questions about but I'm sure they have done the design choices to avoid heat issues because there has been tons of backlash in the past about overheating consoles, i.e the Xbox 360.
the os4 has some pretty bad overheating problems so I doubt they made that mistake again, honest opinion I think that was the only thing truly wrong with the hardware of ps4.

Mine overheated day one out the box brand new so let's not have that happen again.


Looks like the sides of the PS5 are just one giant vent. You can see vent holes alongside the white parts and the side panels don't even look to be fully connected with the center, so I'm sure those gaps are going to act as the cooling/airflow.

It's clear it will either blow or be exhausted out through the vents, it's just the size I question personally for it to be sufficient because these consoles are supposed to hit high fps and have variable refresh rate if I'm not mistaken, that will cause a decent amount of heat in such a compact system.

I doubt this console will have cooing issues if this is the case.

Although I wont be getting either console, I would go with the PS5 mainly because a lot of my IRL friends have PS.
