S.Peelman said: My condolences. I have the very same PS3 and I too am afraid it's time will come. This is why I do not dare to play on it for longer than two hours at a time. And that's pushing it. I think I saved it from death early this year though, it was making so much noise I couldn't even hear the game sounds anymore so I completely took it apart and cleaned it. Now it's better, but it still gets too hot plus nearly all the thermal paste on the CPU is gone. |
Thats what happened with mine, seems the thermal paste completely withered away and the CPU got fried.
Attempted to replace the Paste, but no luck :(
...uhh...ill just put my favorite quote of all time here.
