Hi guys.
I have used this method for my ps3 for 3-4 years and then I decided to try this on ps4 too (cause they use almost the same air conditioning system).
It has worked perfectly in this four years on ps3. I hope it will be the same on ps4 as well. It’s also easy to build.
What you need:
1. One or two medium computer fans
2. A box with lid (preferably cube shaped)
3. 6-7 cm of plastic profiles
4. 5-6 cm of metal mesh
5. 12V adapter
6. Wire
How it works:
It simply takes the air around the console in and forces it out from behind. You can easily understand that with a paper tissue.

Making procedure:
Just three easy steps
1. Cut the bottom of the box (with knife and heat) for the plastic profile to fit. Fix the profile’s angle and paste it with aquarium sealant. (it actually acts like an air duct)

2. Glue the fan so that you can see its back (it should send the air towards profiles).
3. Now make a 4-5 cm whole in the lid (the air will be taken from that whole).now put the mesh in the whole from inside and that’s it. (wiring is very simple task)

[spoiler]I didn't use cube shaped box :([/spoiler]
And when the weather is very hot or you just work with your console a lot you can put some ice with almost long distance from the mesh so that cold air flow towards the console. (Put a piece of cloth on ice and it will be even cooler).
Image
Maybe you won’t believe but it can reduce the temperature of your console a lot. Just be careful not to put the ice so near to the mesh (water drops might go on the console and make problem).
When you use the console more than 8 hours do that once.
If you have any other ideas share with me and others in this topic. ;)
Enjoy!

Well, you must actually try if you want to enter the competition. Teaching how to export save data from the PS4 is easy, and every owner knows it. If they don't, it would be quite obvious they'd head to application data.

This is rather an unexpected tutorial, and very unique. Great tutorial. Good luck to you.
