It's outdated already. You need to buy another expensive graphics card in order to be a PCoid.

He probably didn't give the console enough breathing room. PS5 runs HOT and it needs a lot of space around it and good ventilation or it will overheat pretty quick.

I'm still not sure the PS5 is real and some elaborate hoax..

I have had the same graphics card for 5 years and can still play all games at max settings in 4K, 60FPS.

PCs stopped being a good value like ten years ago imo but maybe with all these crypto crashes it'll be better again. The thing is when people tout how their PC has lasted multiple generations, it probably also cost as much as getting multiple generations worth of consoles

Eh, it is less about "value" and more about the library of games for me. Given the type of games I usually play, if I was strictly a console person, I would still be playing my PS3. The fact that I can play Doom in either DosBox, GZDoom, Chocolate, or the 25th aneversary edition on Steam with just the press of a button means more then what I payed for it vs. a PS5/Xbox One. My next "PC" will probably be a Steam Deck anyways.

As for the topic, yea, if you have gone through 2 PS5's in 1.5 years, is it probably not the console's fault.

I think you're grossly overestimating how long the crypto craze has lasted. My last GPU upgrade was in 2015 and prices were still totally normal at that point. Crypto and the Covid-induced semiconductor shortage have really only been influencing GPU prices to the point that building a gaming PC isn't unquestionably the better value for the last 3-4 years.

I've treated my PS5 the same way I've treated all my consoles. Never had a problem with my PS4. Or my PS3.

I'm getting a "two many USB devices connected" despite only having my charging cable connected. My frame rate is going down, and the PS5 will eventually just stop working. It happened to my last console, and it's happening again.

Please tell me why using a standard USB charging cable kills the PS5 is my fault and not Sony's for making a shitty console.

Sony makes shit quality hardware. I've gone through 3 PS4 controllers, and I've played my PS4 only a small fraction of the time I've played my Switch, which I've never broken a controller for.

Even my old N64 controllers still all work. I've had 1 GameCube controller go bad though (the analog stick is really wobbly).

Normally, Id agree. But they have more out there now. Even I was able to finally snag one That said, finding two is definitely impressive. Especially since he probably wouldve gotten them (or at least one) while they were still hard to find

I've had my PS5 for almost 2 years now and haven't had any problem. Granted, I don't have anything plugged into my USB ports either. I have a stand alone charger for my controllers.

I haven't heard anything about the PS5 having an abnormally high failure rate, unlike the 360, and to a lesser extent, the PS3.

It would seem to me that you were either just unlucky or there's something wrong with the way you are using your console. Are you modding it? Is it kept in a poorly ventilated or hot area? Have you been playing kickball with it?

theyre much easier to find now, literally just ordered a second ps5 (Ive had mine for a year and some change, my father wants one and i just hopped on the playstation website and ordered another with zero hassle) Im asssuming OP sent his initial console in to Sony for repairs and now w the second console is failing. Bad luck for sure but its not at all indicative of the overall quality of the console
