Hi guys, i will replace the default 160gb ps3 slim hdd with a 1tb. My PS3 is at 4.86 rebug, and i saw in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PEYCT6WLeAI that rebug has a custom utility to make this transfer. But will not transfer trophies just like any other method. I read somewhere that...

Yesterday I did a lot of tests with my PS3 to cover all the temperatures and fan speeds in most scenarios. At ambient temperature around 30c, or a bit more because is really hot in here, and when using ar conditioner set to 22c. I used XMB with sparks turned on and GTA V in the nearest corner to...

Just tried using syscon with a game that i will play soon, Enslaved oddyssey to the west. And got a bit worried. CPU temps was just fine at 68c but RSX was really hot at 78c, and the fan just stayed at 28%. Waited a little bit more just to see if the fan would increase the speed, but still...

So do you think i should keep using AUTO mode in webman, or let syscon do the job? When i received the console after the delid and started playing call of juarez gunslinger in syscon mode the fans were not ramping up but temp was increasing fast and it worried me a bit, and i immediately changed...

I opened multiman and kept it open for 30 minutes, the temperatures stabilized at 61c for both cpu and rsx with a 33% fan speed on AUTO mode (shown on picture). Just by pressing PS button temps increased a bit, i also disabled the sparks on xmb. Then i played GTA V and quit to xmb after one...

I will test again with GTA V today, I finished all these games you mentioned again last year i think, with these dangerous temperatures that i had before and thought everything was fine and my city that was hotter. I hope the high temps i was getting did not made a damage. I didn't delid myself...

Is fixed. A delid solved all the problems. Now i noticed that rsx is hotter than before but maybe because the fan is not spinning fast as it was before or maybe the thermal paste used under ihs is not as good as the original one. I opened a game and tested a little bit with syscon, but cpu temps...

I was thinking about this, maybe i did something wrong, and to be sure i did all the steps again and repasted, but still no luck. I have this console since 2010, and there was a time that i stopped playing it, never fully stopped, but months without playing, the paste under ihs is probably dry...

I have cech-2501A. The airflow i think is fine, i can feel a good amount of air going outside on the back of console. I opened it again recently and repasted just to be sure i didn't left anything loose. Everytime i open it, it is really clean, just a bit of dust in the case, but no clogs of...

I used syscon just to have a baseline to compare. Also i changed the thermal paste recently with no change in temperature, i think i will probably need to delid to see if the temperature improves, and since is a risky process i will take to someone that can do it for me. When i use webman auto...

Hi guys i always see people commenting about their PS3 temperatures and most are under 70c on CPU, while mine are always at upper 70c. So i'm not sure if there is something wrong with my PS3 Slim or most people that report low temps just live on really cold places. I also don't remember my PS3...
