PS5 Disc Edition (2020 Launch Model)

Selling my original 2020 launch edition PlayStation 5 (Disc Version). Please read the description carefully, as the console is sold with a known defect as-is.

The console works perfectly on the home screen, in the settings, and with lighter games. The disc drive reads games properly with no issues, all ports (HDMI, USB, etc.) work completely fine, and the console is not banned from PSN (I just haven't signed in recently because I intentionally avoided updating the system).

However, when playing heavier games (such as The Crew, GTA, etc.), it tends to turn off by itself roughly after about 30 to 60 minutes of gameplay. After it shuts down, you need to unplug the power cable and plug it back in to turn it on again, and if the console is already warm, it might turn off a bit sooner.

Regarding maintenance, the console has always been kept vertically and has never been fully taken apart. I only opened it once just to clean the fan, without touching the motherboard or anything else.

Given that this is a 2020 launch model, the issue is very likely related to the cooling system or liquid metal, but it is sold strictly as-is based on what is described.

Currently running system software 26.01-12.60.00.06 (not updated to the latest version).
