Hi guys by any chance do You have a picture that You can share in order to me to be able to add Thermal pads that i lose, i do have a ps3 slim 2101b, i Will really appreciate it and thanks in advance, also inwas wondering if adding back the Thermal pads they Will help to have My ps3 cooler
 
acutally i did that some time ago to delid both cpu and rsx, however i keep the console off the table by using small erasers as console support base, also i changed thermal paste a year ago, i do use the artic mx-6, do you know if maybe i may need to change it? so far i do get 62c temps for both cpu and rsx for about 1-2 hours of sniper elite 3 gameplay at 43% fan speed and also i do use standard cfw evilnat 4.92 no OC
 
62c is a good temp, I get 59-61 on mine with 35% manual fan, also remember that ambient room temperature has a lot to do with your cpu/rsx temps....the higher the room temp, the higher those numbers and the lower the room temp then the lower the temp of rsx/cpu...i also use as5 for thermal paste...i haven't played mine recently but my ps4 pro started heating up in temps/fan noise after 1yr 9mo of same thermal paste as5, after i applied new paste everything went back to normal....so I now change my paste every 1.5yrs.
 
Got it thanks a Lot for that info

still i do want to replace the lost thermal pads, i hope to get maybe a picture or video to do it

hi guys i was able to get those locations on google directly and the temp changes are little like 1 celsius degree but even though that his cange is little still is good to protect other console components
