Thank u so much man. There are quite a lot of videos on TH-cam 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
Glad i could help bro
thanks for the wonderful comment
Why only one video you are a good TH-camr mate love from delhi 🇮🇳
Bro did it work for you??
@@rachitsinghal538 yes it did !!
I thank you for this video because my system is doing all you mentioned in this video
ladyluscious83 hope this helps you out. If you need any advice let me know.
Cheers
Did this technique told in above video helped u to make ur system work .my system is doing the same now a days . Should I do this or I will end up breaking it
Please apart from GD 900 what else can I use
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!
Thanks Buddy... I'll get the right tools and give it a try.
My Best wishes!! Please follow the video and go for it patiently....
a trick: watch movies on Flixzone. I've been using it for watching a lot of movies recently.
@Leighton Marcellus Yup, I have been watching on Flixzone for years myself =)
@Leighton Marcellus definitely, I have been watching on flixzone for since november myself =)
Like to see more videos on playstations
Great work guys
Any specific choice PS4, PS4 PRO, PS4, Slim, PS3, Psvita, Psp??

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
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.
I have done following this procedure its not working..
I think problem is cpu ...open this cpu plate with sharp blade and down in the thermal paste & close the plate... Its 101 ℅ working but this is not my dear.
Thank you my ps3 is good now
Thanks man! I'll try to do this with my ps3 slim coz its fan is like an airplane.
Lmfao same
This is an amazing video. Helped a ton
SONY SUCKS because of consoles that stop reading discs, consoles that over heat due to not enough vents or the vents are not large enough, and "drum roll", those DANG wireless controllers not connecting or not charging.
my ps3 shutdown and i smell burning wire whats the problem also i heard noise on fan, ( i cant turn on my ps3 now) it suddenly turns red
i just bought a ps3 slim for $25. i booted it up. connected through wifi. set up my account then i started playing mlb the bigs. noticed criag biggio is in the game. i quickly realized i sucked at the game. quitted. went outside for awhile. about 15 minutes. i came back and was shocked at how hot it became. i turned it completely off and here i am.
also the hdmi be disconnecting when i touched the cord. probably should find a fix to that too.
my ps3 is automatic shut down and after open no power lights . its overheating issue ?
That is ylod and it can no longer be fixed easily
Same issues with my ps3 super slim how will i contact you
Is this going to fix the problem for longterm? how about de - liding? Is that necessary?
What happens if you use 91% alcohol to clean up the thermal paste from the CPU & GPU?
No problem, use it
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.
Are you using some custom firmware? Does it shutdown after overheating? Could you also check the whether the clamps are screwed in properly?
Also you can you use a thermalpad slightly thicker and see if it makes a difference and if it does think about replacing the heat sink!!
Game MechanicX I’m using ps3hen cobra 4.84 firmware is it the reason my cpu goes to 70*C and the gpu stays at 45*C i can check the temperature on multiman
@@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.
@@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.
Any time I run a game on my modded ps3 it over heats but runs emulators fine without getting to hot
Really good video, try to put much less thermal paste like “small circle” cuz motherboard will stick with it and thermal paste expands to whole cpu
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.
@@rust8infinite what is the minimum temperature of ps3
Indeed, the same thing happens If you use the 'x pattern'.
I have replaced thermal paste but still fan is working loudly. Rsx and cpu reach quickly 70 C and fan make noise
What you're ambient temperatures: mid sixties are good. Try using webman mod and strike a balance between fan noise and good temperatures. Hope this helps
That means the thermal paste underneath the gpu and rsx plate covers have dried up, you need to replace them also.
Thanks for the help.
mine is overheating after about 30 mins of being on ncaa 14 revamped
Very nice video, just the background music is a bit annoying, sometimes makes it hard to hear what you said
Bro
I replaced my thermal paste now my ps3 does weird noises when i start it, i think it's coming from the disc reader
I failed on the first step. Thats a microwave right? Mine caught on fire
Thie pink 🌸 brush was laughing in the corner
Great! Thanks.
I've cleaned it replaced the thermal compound and it is the same. Fan goes Turbo before the game is even launched. My first one melted and I reflowed it for it to happen again. I'm chalking Sony up to being phoney gaming platforms. I will not be getting a 5. Bye bye Sony. You've been hacked anyway.
The thermal paste under your gpu and rsx plate needs to be replaced also.
@@habzmiah I replaced the paste, but why the plate?
@@F-rig Sadly the ps3 has thermal paste under the plates.
@@habzmiah OMG
@@F-rig And they are a pain to take off. Luckily ps4 is easier and safer to replace. I've done both consoles and ps3 was very complex.
Changed thermal paste still the same
Hey i have ps3 slim i have two games gta 5 and wwe 2010 both game are getting stuck at some time at installation what could be problem? Can u plz tell me
check the disc if its dirty clean it, when that did not solve your problem might be disc is damaged? or check hard drive that already failing
Do i need to change hard drive?
@@dhruvbhanushali6084 have you checked the game discs are dirty or damaged? did you try other games if does freezes too?
@@knockbitzhd i have checked the cds they are working fine when i play it on my friend console but they don't work in my console as i said earlier they gets stucks while installing at some percentage. Do i need to change hard drive?
@@dhruvbhanushali6084 try rebuilding console database if that did not work reinstall firmware ps3 if also did not work change hard drive, before you do all those things make sure you back up ur saved file games
Could I use any paste
if ur italian you u can also use tomato paste if thats what u wanted to hear
Help!!! So my ps3 sometimes goes to black screen , and sometimes show’s image but freezes then can turn it back on because gets overheated, but I noticed that my fan makes noise and spins but not too fast, does i need to replace the thermal paste? Thats solves the fan issues? Thanks for your help!! Happy holidays
yes, that's similar to my slim ps3 right now. it means the thermal paste is not helping the cpu / gpu temperatures. I'm going to try this on mine soon, seems like same process as cpu on a computer with thermal paste.
You need to get a new one because it’s most likely something to do with the mother bored
i already cleaned my ps32 weeks ago,i think the thermal paste is the issue
Wait are you from the future?
I have cleaned my ps3 but still shut down and overheat plz help me
do you have a jailbroken PS3? if yes please install Webman manually increase the Fan speed and try. Also keep monitoring at what the ,temperature does it overheat and shuts down
try a external fan.
You sound like me when ur game is down life sucks. Good luck bro
Could be the Power supply unit
When will ur next video come
@@sidglide128 okay I will support the channel
I highly appreciate your support!! Many thanks
Working on a hardware mod for PS3. Will post really soon!!
That's wayyyyy to much thermal paste
It should bind the two surfaces a little spill over won't hurt mate. Make sure to use a non conductive compound. But don't go overboard
ur nans in there i not unner bout the ps3 eather
My ps3 freezing a lot my friend ...the problem is from hard disk ?
Could you please describe it a bit more. Does your hard drive make a clicking sound? Or does the fan sound very good before freezing. It could be a bga issue as well. Might require Reballing
@@gamemechanicx1817 no I don't hear my Hard disk make a sound ..and fan move very fast
You need to change the thermal paste !
Why is the music is SO loud…
It looks like the PlayStation is inside a microwave
I have a problem to my ps3 bro when I play God of War Ascension then 20 minutes my ps3 automatically shutdown and there's a notification said that the system has become hot please turn it off and wait for it to cool down something like that then 3 beep then shutdown with blinking red light I think this is not a YLOD coz I can turn on my ps3 fat 80gb model but unlike the other ps3 mine is more quieter than a hair blower please help me resolve my problem any advice will appreciated thank you
Is any kind of thermal paste is okay for it?
Mx4 will give you the best results
So he brushes the dust right onto the exposed system. ^;^ lol Good video otherwise.
the last of us? metal gear solid ? bruh those are ps4 games too. should’ve keep it to last gen only.
Mgs4 is only available in PS3 not Ps4
It's work just like new
What If it still overheats?
Go for setting from webman
Can I do it at home
Yes!! you can do it home but be careful and patient while performing the process.. Have the necessary equipment in place before starting and watch the video carefully before going ahead. Good Luck!
bro , my ps3 wrote from up tv (this ps3 is become 🔥 hot , please turn off )😞 ,
what is this problem ?
can you fix ?
everytime next 5 minutes turn offing when i am turn on 😞
thermal paste from cpu and gpu , each turn off .
please fix my problem 😔
Please look at cleaning up the console from inside.. also change the thermal paste. you can also look at deliding the cpu and the gpu however that should be be the last measure. becoz deliding can lead to paermanent hardware damage
@@gamemechanicx1817 i am doing , but i am broke down the cpu 😔🤧🤦
Music is annoying AF
Haha verry funny BUT you don't let see how you thit the conection with the drive and motherboard!!! You only say : Whell now thats conected : pffffff jezus christ
