PS5 Slim is repeatedly the subject of rumors this month and the latest report talks about its cooling fan.

The PlayStation 5 "Slim" model has been generating buzz as one of the gaming industry's most anticipated secrets. While we've already caught a glimpse of the console before its official reveal, it seems the moment of truth is drawing near, with more aspects of the new system surfacing online.

A Closer Look at the PS5 Slim Cooling Fan

In a report by Wccftech, X user @MTown0411 treated us to a sneak peek by sharing images of what appears to be the cooling fan for the new model. 

In a side-by-side comparison with the current model's fan, the differences in size are minimal, suggesting that the upcoming PlayStation 5 revision may not be significantly slimmer than its predecessor.

The now-deleted tweet showed that the fan is already available for purchase which even hypes the fans about the intriguing console of this generation.

Connecting the Dots

While there's room for skepticism regarding the authenticity of the fan in the images, @BwE_Dev, who previously provided an early look at the new system, retweeted these pictures. This endorsement increases the likelihood that we're indeed looking at the fan for the new PlayStation 5 Slim model.

Dispelling the PS5 Slim Misconception

Contrary to its name, the PlayStation 5 Slim may not live up to its reputation for slimness, as indicated by online images from last month. 

Insider information from the reliable source Tom Henderson suggests that Sony may market this new model as an upgraded iteration destined to replace the current one entirely. If these speculations hold true, we can expect the final units to grace store shelves by year's end.

Essentially Sports previously wrote that no liquid metal is present in the new PS5 model. According to @Zuby_tech, Sony's gaming machine will not receive major hardware upgrades. It will also allegedly use a 5nm APU.

Another leak spotted by Tech Times last month suggests that PS5 Slim will be just a smaller version of the standard PlayStation 5 console.

@BwE_Dev, an expert in reverse engineering already saw it coming for the Slim console. Based on the speculations, it will be just 5cm shorter than the 2020 model.

Aside from that, the leaker said that it will feature a weird curve sandwiched between the smaller vents. It could point out that USB-C slots will be the disc drive's attachment points.

What Lies Ahead for PS5 Fans

As of now, Sony has yet to make an official announcement about the new PlayStation 5 Slim model. 

Rest assured, we'll be keeping a close watch on any developments and will provide you with the latest updates as soon as they emerge. 

Truly, it's very tempting to believe in these rumors as early as now, but it's up to you whether you take them as facts or not. Anyway, if you have doubts about the rumors and leaks, always take them with a grain of salt to avoid disappointments-just a friendly piece of advice.
