Yeah I know it's not a permanent fix but I'm simply going to do it again and again until it doesn't work anymore.

It'll break in 3 months, and you're gonna do it again.

This time it'll last for a month.

Next time for a week.

3 days.

1 day.

A few hours.

Don't bother man, trade it in while you have the chance. -_-

Never!

Haha I like your determination.  If its a heat issue, couldnt you buy a suped up laptop cooling fan and install that?  You're basically taking the whole thing apart anyways.  And put some Arctic Silver on it for added effect.  Might be better than new.

After checking google i guess they dont use standard laptop fans.  See here for tips on cooling the PS3.

Apparently new thermal paste is a good bet.

You should start advertising your PS3 fixing services =D

lol that's what I've been thinking!
