PS4 randomly shutting off

So, I have a normal PS4 aka slim, that causes me headache over the last few weeks. It randomly shuts off, I've tried reinstalling it from zero, it worked... for a while, then it happens again. I tried reinstall it the second time, it just simply won't comply. I tried plugging it straight to the wall to no avail. I thought to myself it could be just a bad software, but further on I start to think that it could be a hardware issue. Can anyone help? Since I have never had a PS4 before.

How old is it? Is it new or bought second hand?

Might need a cleaning and a reapplication of thermal paste.

I'd put my faith in YouTube for that.

And also it won't turn on. Just blue light pulsating then it turns off.

Thermal throttling. Clean the fuck out of it and replace the thermal paste.
