You must not have owned a Dreamcast ...
At some point that ain't gonna help, my problem probably was the thermal paste drying
The Dreamcast and original 360 were fucking ridiculously loud.
Who in the hell are these people and where are they getting their consoles? And why are they playing in such quiet rooms without headphones and expecting their electronics to be whisper quiet?

Not trying to be a dick here -- I've genuinely always wondered this.
What in gods name are you people doing that you can ever hear a console? Are you Buddhist monks living in a lakeside sanctuary? Do you play in a room with 7 sleeping newborn babies with the sound on your TV turned all the way down?
I have NEVER, ever heard a console make significant noise in my 35 years of playing video games. Well I mean, there's noise, a very slight humming sound when games boot up, but other than that, why do people bitch so god damn much about "console noise"? People even get really extreme and say really weird shit like "my PS4 sounds like a jet engine in my living room!" Or "I'd love my PS4 Pro if it didn't sound like a fucking hair dryer on full blast!" (Real quote from someone here, not kidding).
My question is, who in the hell are these people and where are they getting their consoles? And why are they playing in such quiet rooms without headphones and expecting their electronics to be whisper quiet?
I can hear my PS4 when I'm upstairs. (It's in the living room) I can hear it over my TV.
What the fuck?
My PS4 is SERIOUSLY loud. It was since the start, and it still is. Both my huge PC comps are often on at the same time, but together they only make fraction of the noise the PS4 does alone.
My friends PS4 is way less loud, it's a huge difference. Guess I could get mine replaced, but that in itself sucks.
Also, I live in a fairly small apartment with my wife and son. The PS4 is so loud that even if I block it out with headphones, they can still hear it clearly inside the living room, even with the door closed.
So just shut it OP, loud consoles are annoying. So annoying that I've stopped playing on my PS4 all together.
What case is it? Have been thinking of switching everything out of the hadron.
Are you guys keeping the PS4 well ventilated? Only time my PS4 gets really loud is when I forget to open the component door on my tv stand.
