PS4 Overheating & The Red Line Of Death
http://videogamescene.com/ps4-overhe...line-of-death/
A photo has surfaced showing a demo PS4 console overheating and displaying what has been dubbed “the red line of death.” The picture was taken at a PS4 event in Spain and posted by Elotrolado member Homer J. Simpson in his report of the event. Here are his complete updated comments (translated from Spanish)…
“In terms of sound, practically none, you can hear the fan if you listened closely but nothing exaggerated. they had ventilated consoles and others put in enclosures completely closed that were running from 9am without stopping (we got there at 18:00 in the evening). they were running fine and were quite warm on the surface but nothing like our curreng generation consoles.
The only exception to that was one console that was completely enclosed in an acrylic case , it was showing a red light (where there would typically be a blue light) and there was a message on the screen that said the console’s temperature was too high. the Acrylic case was opened and within minutes the error message went away and the light went back to its normal color.
These consoles were test units, they seemed fully capable in every way.”

Overheating? Duhh~ this shit happens when you put the ps4 in a plastic box with no ventilation or even a couple slits for air.
All electronics that generate heat need dissipation and airflow.

An enclosed case? Any electronic is going to overheat when it doesn't have proper airflow. It's the people's fault, I don't get why the big fuss on the console.
