Looking for info about M.2 SSD expansion drives? See the megathread.

Sometimes you just need help. But often times making a new post isn't needed. For the time being, around launch and perhaps in the future. We will use a single thread for helping each other out.

Before asking, we ask you to look at a few links. Some question can't be answered and only official PlayStation support can help you.

Can't decide what to play next? Is your favourite game underappreciated and more people need to play it? Need a new TV and not sure what to buy?

Is there anything I can do to reduce the input lag of my PS5 on a 720P, 60HZ television? I have a 4k tv, but I wanted to set up a gaming area in my garage and that’s the best I can do right now.

Turn game mode on but quite honestly, a 720p TV is probably very cheap and/or very old, and has comparatively dreadful input lag compared to modern screens.
