Let’s be real—your PlayStation didn’t suddenly decide to become a space heater just for fun. It didn’t wake up one day and think, “Let’s melt some solder today.” Nine times out of ten, the problem is the liquid metal—and when it shifts out of place, your PS5 runs hotter than your buddy’s trash talk in Warzone.

Here’s how you know it’s overheating:

- The fans sound like a jet engine on takeoff.
- Your PS5 randomly shuts down mid-game like it rage-quit for you.
- You get on-screen warnings about overheating.
- The case feels hot enough to fry an egg.

Why does it happen? Because Sony used liquid metal for better cooling—but over time, it can dry, shift, or leak. Add dust build-up, poor ventilation, or that marathon session you swore would only last “an hour,” and suddenly your console’s cooking itself instead of keeping cool.

But here’s the good news: your PlayStation isn’t toast. At OneUpFix, we’ll clean out the old liquid metal, apply fresh thermal material, and get your PS5 back to running smooth, cool, and quiet. One repair, and your console’s ready for the next round without the meltdown.

This isn’t some quick blast of compressed air or a “hope for the best” cleaning. At OneUpFix, we go deeper. Your PS5 gets a full spa day — minus the cucumber water.

Here’s what we actually do:

- Crack it open (carefully) — the case comes off, the heatsink comes out, and the old liquid metal gets cleaned away.
- Reapply fresh liquid metal — evenly spread, sealed, and locked in place so it won’t shift around again.
- Clean + reset cooling — dust bunnies? Gone. Fan blades? Cleaned. Thermal pads? Checked and refreshed.
- Test under real load — we don’t just turn it on; we stress test it with real gameplay so we know it stays cool when it matters.

The result? A PS5 that runs quiet, cool, and stable. No more mid-game shutdowns, no more “jet engine mode,” no more wondering if your console’s cooking itself alive.

Let’s be real — when your PlayStation sounds like a jet engine and shuts itself down mid-game, the last thing you want is to waste time with “tricks” you saw on YouTube. Spoiler alert: blasting it with compressed air or swapping out thermal paste from Amazon isn’t going to cut it. Overheating is a liquid metal problem, and unless it’s handled properly, you’re just buying yourself a few more hours before the next crash.

At OneUpFix, we do this every week. We see the same story over and over: a PS5 that’s been pushed too hard, liquid metal that’s spilled out of place, and a fan that’s doing its best but losing the battle. We’ve dialed in the process so your console gets fixed right the first time — no risky experiments, no shortcuts.

Here’s what you get with us:

Bottom line: We fix it once. We fix it right. And we get you back in the game without the stress.

Don’t wait—your next game night is counting on it.
