So unplug your console , hold down the eject button and plug your console back in while holding the eject . It will blow dust out . Mine put off a cloud of dust even after compressed air from the outside. You probably should tear it down and clean it then use the Kaiser grizzly paste on the rsx and cell . The past is probably not good . I got the same one from a thrift store and it was good for the first few hours then started with the double beep . Cleaning the heat sink and the rsx/cell with ipa and a paper towel better if you have a coffee filter until no thermal paste or grey comes of on the paper towel . Then do the x or the spatula method of paste . Bet after doing so and cleaning all the dust out it will run better .
do not do the blower these are not for blowing the dust away, back then sony use this combo to check the fan condition if you keep doing that it will lessen the life span of the fan and probably break i also have ps3 slim the model is cech-2503b delidded it a year ago
I still have ps3 but im using the ps4 over 10 years as my 10 year anniversary
