[SOLVED] Enough air flow for PS5

[decipher83]

Hello!

My concern is about the position of my PS5. Unfortunately I have limited space around the tv. So I can put the PS5 only into the shelf of the tv desk.

The sides has about 12 and 12 cm the back has 20 cm. The back has a hole for wires.

My question is that is it enough space for good airflow or do i need to look for any alternative?

The front and sides of the PS5 have good airflow clearance. The opening white sleeves (in front) are where air is taken in.

The rear looks like it has enough physical clearance. The problem I see is that heat from the PS5's rear exhaust might build up and recycle into the front intake. Potentially causing overheating issues.

I'd say play for a few hours and check the heat by hand. If it feels really hot or the PS5 shuts down from overheating, then it needs to be moved to an area where the intake and exhaust have plenty of air circulation.
