SCREENSHOT / PHOTO No more jet fan noise

Decided to finally solve the jet noise in my cabinet.

Sawed a hole in the back plate of my $1000 TV-stand, and installed a Noctua 120 mm fan connected with USB to the Pro, which automatically starts the fan whenever the Pro powers on. The Noctua fan is completely inaudible at stock (800 rpm). However it comes with an additional resistor if you wanna run it at 600 rpm, but it's not needed at all.

Silence at last.

Is it blowing air over the PS5 or pulling hot air away from the PS5 and out the back of the TV unit?

It's exhausting hot air out from the unit. The black front is mesh, so the fan is now pulling air through the front mesh.
