Somebody mentioned de-lidding the CPU. I am hoping to get away with not doing that, but we’ll see how it runs.

I got it for $40, so I can’t complain. The disc drive works fine, it outputs 1080p, the controller input works fine. It just needs to be cleaned like all hell.

Wow! I mean, if it works okay and you’re happy to clean it then $40 is good.

I remember the inside of my PS4 being a bit of dust trap. The fan was much quieter after I gave it a good clean - but it was never as bad as your photo :o
