    Thank u so much man. There are quite a lot of videos on RUclips about this exact repair, but you were the only one I found that literally walked me through every single step one at a time. My ps3 would turn off after 2 or 3 min everytime. Now it works like the day I bought it! Thx again

    I had the same problem: I replaced 3 times the thermal paste of my PS3 Slim (day 1), but it never resolved the problem.
    Yesterday I finally fixed the problem by taping some cardboard under the CPU and the GPU, as seen in a video of idrees tech called "PS3 makes 3 beeps then shuts off. (CECH 3001A)" at 11min20!

    So my ps3 wouldn’t overheat before I replaced the thermal paste now that it has fresh thermal paste it overheats almost immediately the fan accelerates to highest spin speed

    • @Eagle1ZX
      @Eagle1ZX 4 месяца назад

      It sounds like you did not apply the fresh thermal paste properly, did you completely clean off the old paste before applying the new stuff? If you put too much on or incorrectly (leave gaps or air pockets), it will not work properly.

    • @rust8infinite
      @rust8infinite 2 года назад

      Not true those are very large heat spreaders, I just did the same method you described, I use the same method on almost everything with great results, but it doesn't work on the ps3.
      After I repasted, Webman mod was reporting both the cell broad band engine and the rsx were running at 76c while testing with god of war 3.
      I have to rip the whole console apart again and go way heavy on the paste.
      Also take a look at a video by gamer nexus where they tested the entire art applying thermal paste. They tested minimal thermal paste, the standard dab of paste on the middle, and the ungodly amount of paste on cpu's. The standard dab, and the ungodly amount both performed relatively the same. Where as the tiny amount barely did anything.

      also the hdmi be disconnecting when i touched the cord. probably should find a fix to that too.

    My PS3 still overheats after replacing thermal paste and seems to be due to the heat sink not touching the CPU properly due to bad design on some models.

    • @gamemechanicx1817
      @gamemechanicx1817  4 года назад +1

      Are you using some custom firmware? Does it shutdown after overheating? Could you also check the whether the clamps are screwed in properly?

    • @gamemechanicx1817

      @@gamemechanicx1817 I am using 4.86.1 Rebug. I seem to have solved the issue after assembling the heat sink and fan to the motherboard by pressing firmly down on the clamps after screwing them in. I had the idea that the thermal paste may have been applied too thick or the clamps were not pressing down firm enough.

    • @gamemechanicx1817
      @gamemechanicx1817  4 года назад +2

      @@labki69 PS3 did not come with a soldered heat sink. The binding/contact between the heat spreader is with thermal paste. They did this to save cost. Over a period of time the thermal paste becomes dry and the processors start heating up. But deliding the CPU and GPU is simply not worth the risk. try cleaning it up and apply thermal paste. If that does not make a difference try increasing the fan speed using webman mod.
