Hi guys. I'm wanting to take my Pro apart and give it a clean, reapply thermal paste and pads. Got the thermal paste already, does anyone know what thickness the thermal pads need to be?

Don't use pads use a thermal paste such as arctic silver.

The pads cover the 6 (i think) memory chips around the CPU. Couldn't tell you the thickness though. I just carefully re positioned mine when I cleaned it out.

Hopefully Sony commit to improving the PS4 compatibility library on PS5 so I can put it in storage. I wouldn't be confident taking the system apart (plus i'm too lazy), PS3 was easy, PS4 seems there's a bit less room for error. Glad to hear it's actually been beneficial though.

Forgot about that after downloading MW2 early... I could do with a not-too-serious game such as this for a nice change, will be giving it a go.

Thermal paste on the RAM?
Soldato
Nope.

This game is pure joy.
Got my first win after about 5 or so attempts. Then later got to brink of another victory but I missed grabbing the crown and fell back before being beaten.
Once they sort servers it will be even better.
I have a pair of Edifier 1280T speakers, and a Hisense A6250 (atm, new TV coming next week) I have tried connecting them via rca to rca but it won't pick them up. I think it has an optical audio in (little square looking connector with a flap) on the TV and one on the PS4 Pro.
I see 2 white/red connectors with "PC" undernearth and on the right I have "aux" with 2 red and white connectors, neither works.
What do I need to do?

Yep was a great laugh. I managed to reach top 4 and was them promptly DC'd. Couldn't get back in after that but was expecting it anyway really. I just hope they add to the game and keep it interesting.

State of Play tonight at 9pm, consisting mostly of PS4 and PS VR stuff. No PS5 announcements.
I've just taken two pro's apart, used thermal grizzly pads & mx-4. Pretty straight forward. Made a big difference

Hitman 3 with VRlooks like I'm going to be buying a PSVR now.
Hopefully it'll come to Steam as well
Hitman is pretty much one of my favourite game series of all time. I've got about 150 hours on Hitman 2
So with Valve Index it would be amazing.

Didn't they say something like 9 pixels for every 1 of the original? Don't see the point in remakes of those style of game tbh.

LOL, I don't see the point of people trashing them either. You're not forced to buy it. You'll probably get it for free if you already own it.
