Why is the PS5 so quiet?
Why is the PS5 so quiet? In the Ultimate PS5 FAQ, Sony has stated “Our goal is for PS5 to be quieter than PS4. This is due to changes in the power delivery and cooling systems, as well as custom engineering work including a custom heatsink and a liquid metal-based thermal interface material.”

Can I put PS5 horizontally?
Like the previous three generations of Sony consoles before it, the PS5 can be positioned in either a flat horizontal position or a vertical standing position. Unlike those consoles, though, this one doesn’t require a separate stand attachment.
What is the black circle thing that comes with PS5?
In the center of the base, flanked by a line of small vents on either side, you’ll see a small black circle. This is a plastic cap — it covers the hole that the stand screws into when the PS5 is standing upright. The cover also snaps into place in the compartment.
