- Hi... It's been a long time! so long story short... I'm back with a new video!
Another PS3 vid... but this time showing my new tried and tested SAFE way of getting that dam CPU CAP off so you can re apply a good thermal paste or repair a PS3 60GB.
4 PS3's have been harmed while trying out different ways... so i know its all good but it will take a little longer but I think you guys will like it
Skip to 7:35 for the fix... 😆
i need to do this for my slim version
guys sorry to disappoint you but all ps3s will overheat and die if this isn't done someday
thanks great video
this actually seems less dangerous than a metal string or a blade, but I wonder if heating the glue instead of the solvent might work better
Having watched various videos on removing the IHS I went with your method as you used the words 'safest method'.
Well, I don't know if I'm not very good at it but it took 4hrs in total, not sure how you did it in 10 minutes. It didn't really matter how long it took to me though, and I'm pleased to say they came off eventually, the RSX popped straight off but the the CELL was much trickier, thankfully no damage on either.
They certainly needed some maintenance as the factory paste had gone very hard and crusty.
lol, this is a very cut video, it does actually take some time to get through the glue they use, but no risk of scratching the chip. I have killed 3 trying blades and pallet knives, not to mention cutting my fingers on the razor blade ! that video is some ware on YT and that looked easy ... it weren't.. : /
@@Retrogranddadwould you recommend a fishing line could it be better than what you used
I see people use lcd screen cutting wire 0.08mm or Molybdenum cutting Wire, dont know if it is the same@@mr.r0b0to5
@@mr.r0b0to5 to be honest nah, i read about people that used a fishing line and it scratched because of how strong the line is.
You can remove the cpu and rsx ihs with a thin metal guitar string aswell and cut it off with it. To replace thermal paste underneath
Do you know which gauge would be the right one to use?
@@alanjamesh.zamorano1677 Not sure but wouldn't it make more sense to just use the thinnest wire you can find. The smallest strings for electric guitar are probably .008
Perfect, no more cavities!
This is way better than using a blade
I'm planning to use this method on my ps3 super slim, do you there is good chance of success?
@@jamespatrick686 most likely everything will turn out well, I have to try it on my fat
Man I wish I saw this back at Christmas when I got my 60gb ps3 and broke it from trying to pry it off with a painter’s knife…
Looks like the solvant attack the protection varnish on the PCBs.
What about instead of going all the way through the chip, you could use the floss around the edges to only cut through the adhesive avoiding contact with the chip underneath? I have yet to try it but just an idea.
This is like i've thought. I think he had no intention of doing so❤
I told my ps3 to floss all the time but he wouldn't listen
EDIT:
after few months I've realised that the unit itself had damaged cell solderballs, it had the eraser mod. 🥶 I've done other 4 successful delidding using molybdenum wire.
I've used 0.06 mm molybdenum wire. Unfortunately this method could break solder balls under the cell...Delidding looks perfect but It Ended up with GLOD. Be careful guys! Maybe, I've been unlucky.
How did you break solder balls under the chip? You saw under it instead of under the heat sink?
Looks like you went under the glue instead of the top

pro tip. find one of the little straws to go on the end of the aerosol tip so you can point it away from under the chip
out of curiosity, how long did this system last before it died again?
the ''heatgun trick'' isnt a fix, so im just curious on how long it lasted
Excellent idea I was to nervous to try and delid my PS3 backwards compatible. But with this method I don't see how you can scratch the chip now 👍
practice on a broken dead PS3 first
get a cheap broken PS3
its not common, but the thermal compound used in the CPU can be abrasive enough that if your tooth floss doesnt snap, it can catch the thermal paste and make micro abrasions on the cpu, significant enough to ruin the ps3 entirely
@@Rick___ Oh for god sake...
Yes
Why you didn’t use the special adhesive removal it’s available in a small plastic bottle
What type of thermal pads should I use on all other areas already using thermal pads? Conductive or nonconductive for all consoles? Wii, ps2 slim, ps3 slim, ps3 fat, ps4 pro.
my son bro great job
i used fishing reel a long time ago. i made the initial incision in a corner using a paint knife and continued the job with the fishing reel
I would try fishing line it would not snap like dental floss
Wow! I gotta try this out. Thank you!
A European with dental floss, now thats funny.
Do you have a follow up video where you put the chip back on and put it together?
After 8 hours and wasting 1 pack of dental floss I barely made a dent. I think they put super glue on my cechj...
What about gpu ihs? And how to clean dried paste on four corners of gpu?
Use disolvent and plastic card
Hi mate I got solvent 646, Is it good?
Will delidding help with the fan noise of the fat ps3? It kicks in to a higher rpm because the paste under the IHS is old and dry?
Do not do this. I ended up essentially sanding through the solder mask on the PCB around the cpu die.
Luckily, I stopped after a few hours of almost zero progress, only to use an angled and sanded down piece of metal, and the traces may be intact from what I can see. It did go through the first copper layer in some areas though.
I don't know if the ps3 will boot, and I have strong suspicion that it won't, but I'll give an update after I've put it all back together... Luckily this was a second hand backup.
Update: YLOD.
Did you do a Syscon reading to make sure?
@@0852657luis pretty sure I basically sanded through the top pcb layer and cut three traces, one bigger and two really tiny ones... Should've stuck to the first method.
@@phooopy7941 well you can always replace the GPU with a 65 or 45 nm GPU to make a Frankenstein backwards compatible PS3. There is a forum post telling you exactly how to do it. I've done it on my PS3 and it's been working ever since September of this year.
@@0852657luis I'm guessing you mean the cpu (cell). Did you also replace the nand and syscon or did you overwrite the values within them reset and remarry a new cell processor?
I do know that the RSX is more easily swappable, but I think that one is fine in my case.
@@phooopy7941 damn, anyway I just remarry it. That's too bad there are not a lot of cpus for the launch PS3 theses days.
Is the glue different across different models? Or is isopropyl not good enough? 10-12h of flossing and only managed to scrub away some glue around the edges. Zero chance of making the floss go through IHS like on the video.
Use sealant remover to soften the silicone.
What about fishing line?
How long did this take you exactly? What was the total?
What is the disolvent used ? Is there a Amazon link to buy ?
WoW It would be very good way to save pieces! I Will use something similar. I appriciated however it's a 0.08mm wire I bought on AliExpress!
Did the method work using a 0.08mm wire?
@@EletroEsquilo well, i've tried but not hard. I'm sorry, i can't help you. I did a mess with another caps and resistors wich accidentaly.. so i Will try to undo first It.
@@rul644 ok. Thanks
Use longer floss damn you are making it harder than it should be
What are you cutting is it thermal paste or rubber gasket
ive delid mine and beneath the heatspreader is an adhesive that sony applied to the CPU borders
I guess a fishing line could work better
what if it scratch the Cell?
Will this work on a ps3 slim 2500 ?
it works on all ps3s
tbh the 2000 series ps3's have a thinner amount of adhesive beneath the heat spreader so youll probably have a hard time compared to the fat PS3 he worked on.
@@Rick___ I tried it on a super slim 4000 ps3 and it was a pain took a long time but it worked
@@mlgleonardo310 is your console working?
@@maxician5791 yes it’s working but I would be very careful I tried this on another super slim and the ihs was really stuck to the cell that came off with the ihs killing my second console
You don’t stop shutting during a major job on a delicate electronic piece god damnit I would concede you are lieing
What
Who asked
What a waste of time, you have the crappy PAL PS3 model which is missing the EE ps2 chip. Not worth the effort, EPIC FAIL 🤡
