After 5 years i'm here reading my journey back when i had the problem with my ps3 overheating.. i hope everyone is fine. Merry christmas

Hi all, I have the latest ferrox and want to know what to do if i want to have youtube app or other apps installed. Do i need to do it through usb disk? Or can i go online? If yes then what do i need to not be banned? Thanks

That's good to know.

Ok thanks, i ordered it today. By the way: I played little big planet for more then 1 hour. Then i closed the game and started the fan control utility to check the temps. Check photo

In that case i will use the mx4 as for that price of kryonaut i can buy 2 x 4gram mx4 paste. So should i dig into the rsx or not? Thanks

Hi all, just want to give an update. I have not touched my ps3 since my last post here. (I had stuff to do) Now i want to dig into my ps3 again. I want to know what difference will it make between buying the kryonaut or mx4? Ps3 is getting old and if the difference between those two pastes will...

That's exactly what i'm going to test out and perhaps post a video so that more people could possibly like to see it. And thanks for that advice of the rsx. You and sandungas were very involved in this matter so tnx

No worries" life is like a competition already. :D I just have to make one post and i'll gain a trophy LOL just kidding

I work with electronics repair many years and is my hobby so i definitely will be removing the rsx IHS. Can that value actually be decreased? it's already at a good value of 43°.. That's the only reason why i didn't touched it. Oh and yeah i was looking through my posts here and i had actually...

You do what you think is good. I'm all for good. I trust your decisions.

In my previous post i mentioned that i already did bend the buttons in the state they normally were. So that's fixed. I tested my ps3 out and it powers on normally and turns off normally. Yes i will buy the paste next week cause i ran out of money lol. From 85° going to 51 is indeed a very huge...

Yes before i assembled my ps3 and tested out the temps i have bended the buttons back how they were. I knew they were smashed and that must have happened when i was removing the IHS. And not only that but also when i was trying to power my ps3 on and it did'nt want to listen to me,,, that's...

I have good news: Look at the picture.

I resolved this by bending a bit up the plate so that it does not touch the buttons. The buttons must not be grounded after main power in on. I think i have bended my plate during several dissasemble procedures.

I have tested with my multimeter in beep (diode) mode the copper part that actually goes around the whole mobo. it is ground. I have tested the conduction between the copper and plate and it is ground. Even the plate under the mobo is ground. But that's when i have my brain in a stuck mode...
