Just to be clear i am also concerned about ps5 .
Overclocked with half of the box for cooling only....
Again i might just wait on both instead of buying expensive warranty.

Dont forget they all tested only back como titles no new next gen.
Meaning the console was barely utilized so who know how it realy acts under stress

They are likely both hot, but that doesn't mean there is an issue. Again, fans throttle up when these systems start to overheat. So unless there is an issue with the fan profile, I can't believe it is an issue.

BC probably uses more power than you realize. Emulation needs power .

I'm curious as to what the case temps will indicate?

Where do you have yours sitting?
Can't wait until we get passed launch and can get some diodes around the APUs front and back to compare board temps. I wonder if there will be any surprises there?

This is what is call 1st Class FUD from those guys.
You just remove the cover and unscrew a screw, just like the PS4.
Why must these guys do this?
Create and spread misinformation so proudly.
This is why console wars will never die.

I love the Xboxs form factor, it fits in a lot of spaces, but is very American in its design... its just a box, with everything crammed in extremely tight.
The PS5 I think shows some Japanese ingenuity we don't see in products anymore, its out there, but there are legitimate reasons for it. I feel as is Sony has put a lot more work into their design of the console.
If the early reports are anything to go by, the XSX will run hot, but obviously still within its capabilities. But just wait until release for all the click bait horror stories to come out.

It might sound weird but I actually like how big the PS5 is (no homo), not only due to the functional benefits (having more airflow, etc.) but also because it gives it a certain presence that the machine would otherwise not have. It's part of that bold and innovative design that truly wants to show off and catch your attention.
Series X took the other approach: it is minimalistic, discreet and tries to blend in as much as possible. In my perception, however, it only ends up being boring and dull; essentially, a shy black brick that is meant to not be looked at. It also gives the impression of being a lower quality piece in terms of build when compared to its flashy counterpart. Minimalism is kinda hard to get right in design.

The way it deals with heat is the same way a gaming PC and high powered devices move heat. Removing heat isn’t the same as overheating. Placement is a factor and of course not everyone places the equipment like they should to provide proper airflow. Not one report says the system shuts down due to heat being moved out and again why would they send this system to hundreds of random people if they had a concern about this?

This isn't actually correct.
Microsoft have confirmed multiple times that BC titles on the XSX and XSS get access to the full clocks of the hardware. Unlike the PS5, BC titles on the XSX and XSS don't force the hardware into down-clocked legacy profile modes; the BC titles don't have access to the architectural improvements, but they do have access to the full brute force power of the hardware. Being that several titles were running in full 4k 60FPS, it stands to reason we've seen the Xbox Series X under load. And it's apparently whisper quiet. Given the sheer mammoth size of the PS5, I'd expect the console to also be extremely quiet, perhaps more so than even the Series X. We'll know for sure soon enough.

I have no concerns

The PS5 compromised its size from the start because of the choice to stay with the typical console form factor and when comparing it to the XSX, I feel Microsoft chose the "work smarter not harder" approach.
That said, I understand there are a lot of reasons for why Sony could have chose the form factor they did and Microsoft choosing a non-standard console shape could be viewed as a compromise as well.
In general, I prefer the standard console shape aesthetically but I have my limits and in my opinion, the PS5 is the biggest, ugliest mainstream console ever made. That didn't stop me from pre-ordering though.

Yep. I can play current games at ultra @ 1080p on my gaming PC but emulating a PS3 in PCSX3 or even Wii U @ 1080p can bring it to its knees. Emulation is CPU intensive.

I hide mine in the cabinets.
To me it doesnt matter how the consoles look. I dont even want to see them.
But i cant have a lot of heat in the cabinets.
Even now with extra ventilation its too much in the summer.
Winter i have extra airflow comming from the garage below.
So add to the extra the extra foot print of both and you got yourself a problem.
If ps5 stays cool great .
If xbox pushes all the heat out great.
But if the console heats up even in stand by mode with no fans running , sooner or later something inside will break

This arguing is pointless.
There can only be one "Greatest Designed Console" of all time.
And I think we all know what that is...
Check out that sleek design. Compact, stylish. It even holds your gamepads. BOTH of them!
Now THAT is a clean interior. Simple, elegant, beautiful.
Heat? What heat? The Colecovision doesn't even need a fan!

Design is entirely subjective. You think the PS5 is badly designed? That's ok. You think it's a very good design? That's ok. You preach it's objectively bad or good because of a specific criteria? You're wrong.
There was a time were people judged mobile devices like smartphones and tablets for their size. Smaller was high tech and better and bigger was tasteless and worst. That time has passed and nobody talks anymore about smartphones being able to fit in your pocket in order to sell. In fact, phablets exist.

Thank you kindly lolLet's buy you a PS5.
Just shrink it down by 30 percent and it will fit.
I have a bigger unit in the basement with lots of space but i still enjoy gaming in this room next to the bar.

On topic, haven't watched these two yet, but judging by the thumbnail isn't the DF thing done in a Microsoft facility? with the posters on the walls etc? And Xbox fans were shitting on the Japanese hands on videos for being in a Sony facility?

That guy has MS tattooed on both his backside cheeks. I listened to a couple of his podcasts where, helped by a whole army of self-proclaimed experts on hardware, software and business practices, he went on to spout the most laughable and delusional statements that any human has ever uttered across the entirety of the Northern hemisphere. No hesitation, no trembling voice...The utter confidence of a mad clown who thinks he’s got it right. My IQ dropped significantly after witnessing that drivel, but it is still higher than the sum of the IQs of all those monkeys who help him shit out his weekly videos.

The bigger question asked though is since they added dust collectors that you can remove and clean to help keep the dust out, we all know majority people won't ever remove them to clean them, what happens if you let it build up?

Series X is more powerful yet smaller, lighter, and the innards are easier to get into. So it shows it can be done. The reverse of Xbox One and PS4.
It looks what happened is that fast and hot GPU messed up a traditional design, so they had to make the shell bigger, a bigger fan, a heat sink that looks about double the size of PS4 Pro, and then they wrapped the black shell with a white curvy shell to hide the vents.
If they went with a system designed more like SeX (more CU, less GPU), Sony could have had a design/shell that is smaller whether a gamer lies it flat or vertical, or whether SOny designed it it like a standard console (like a DVD player) or a mini tower design like SeX.

There’s a major difference you’re missing. The tear downs were done at MS, but they sent consoles to people for previews. Sony did previews in a tightly controlled office at their headquarters. They didn’t send consoles to anyone. They also did their tear down with a Sony employee. MS let other people do their own tear downs.
Both completely different situations, don’t try and “Microsoft too” it.
I hope not. External power bricks are better in every way. Less heat in the console, and easier repair/replacement. It’s like internal batteries, having them just makes it less user friendly.

Not really, in comparison you make xbox fanboys look like cult followers. No more crazier and delusional than ps fanboys you're the one to talk, when basically you're a walking talking hypocrite yourself eh?
On-topic: both really don't look all that appealing. Just two sleeker designed PC towers you'd come across in shadowrun or cyberpunk 2077.

These typical Xbox guys spend a lot of time on PS5. I am starting to think it is because PS5 in the title drives more traffic than Series X.

Ironically the Xbox looks like an apple product design. Very minimal pieces and all fit together tight.
