Have you guys ever tried to clean your console?

Usually every once in a while; 5 months or so I used to remove the plates and clean the vents.

This time I was having temperature warning since last two sessions while playing Death Stranding. Thought it might be because of how DS worked up the GPU but to my surprise on the DS subreddit no one has had this issue even with long gaming sessions. So I decided to get my console checked up from the offline store where I bought it from. As you can see I didn't do that and tried to take matters in my own hands. Ordered the basic screwdriver set from amazon for those TT screws. Removed the fan and cleaned it with basic brushes and hand held vaccum cleaner.

Had it say it was a good experience. Never did anything like this ever before. (NOT A PC ASSEMBLER) Though I was very rusty with my process and didn't use component cleaning liquid or what not. Nevertheless my PS5 now runs smooth as butter.

PS: The console was in vertical position from last 2 years and now it's in horizontal position. Read about thermal pad and its cooling effects too somewhere.
