Shiiii... Here's me thinking I was going over the top upgrading my internet & considering a new controller with paddles (the official Sony back button attachment seems impossible to get hold of). Taking your PS4 apart - seriously high risk/reward strategy!
Still enjoying WZ a lot but have been back to normal multiplayer now shoot the ship is back & I'm playing for obsidian and to unlock the akimbo snakeshots!

Shoot the ship, pretty much all I've been playing. Got my jug ribbon today 🎉
Also, I ordered a scuf recently, should arrive later in the month. A new headset had already got me feeling like I'm on God mode, and thats with a faulty controller (right stick drifts to the left 🤬) will report back when I'm sliding like a pro

I try to avoid FPS games, basically end up racing for top rank and playing too aggressively. Last one I liked was Destiny but the PvE and PVP blend mixed with weekly missions and grinding really pissed me off. Track forward a few years of solitary From Software games and the odd AAA....
I reluctantly downloaded CoD Warzone a few weeks go to play with two mates who desperately needed a third and now I'm obsessed with it! Bought the full game, bought the battle pass, maxed it all out as fast as I could and still playing BattleRoyale as much as I can.
What I wasn't so keen on was the sound my PS4 Pro made when loading a new match or during some parts of the game. I also noticed that the fps was terrible and making my eyes really sore.
Decided to try and rectify by replacing the thermal paste on CPU and thermal pads on memory chips. (Not taking into account how risky a move that was with the current price of consoles, which I only realised afterwards).
It was a piece of piss to do, and I found this thing had been assembled very sloppily... the PS4 Pro no longer sounds like a leaf blower but the more surprising outcome came when I loaded up warzone.
The graphics were a Higher Resolution (presumably I hadn't ever seen it work at 4k before) and I was getting a Much Higher FPS.
The thing had been throttling itself cause it was reporting upper tolerance temperatures somewhere.
Sorry for the CSB but have learnt a lot of people are struggling with Warzone and your PS4 thermal compounds will have aged since you first got your console. Its about £30 worth of materials sourced on Amazon and an hour of your time to resolve it.
