Mar 29, 2019 · I have a PS3 FAT model running OverFlow 4.85 CFW. I just recently applied some Artic Silver 5 thermal paste to the CPU and GPU. However, I would like to monitor my temps while in game. I can see the temps using webMan when I'm in the XMB screen, but I was wondering is there a utility I can use that will display the cpu/gpu temps while I'm in game?

Apr 27, 2018 · One roadblock has remained on the PS3 and that was Hardware Acceleration on the NVIDIA RSX GPU, while we have seen the PS Vita / PSTV get HW Acceleration recently and how its has helped many projects on the platform. the PPC / CELL environment of the PS3 offers a challenging adventure with the architecture that the PS3 is built on, that sadly ...

Feb 1, 2022 · So, if i sucessfully repair my PS3, i think that i will perform the orbis mod (as the franskenstein mod seems more tricky to perform) . Because the 90nm RSX is based on a NVIDIA chip that is all know to have deffective bumps and underfill... All nvidia gpu before 2010/2011 (40 nm / 28 nm GTX 5xx and 6xx) have this deffective bumps and underfill.

Mar 19, 2022 · Caution: If your PS3 has overheating issue's, Overclocking the RSX can be very dangerous. When using these experimental CFW's be sure to keep an eye on your internal temps. PHAT console should exercise additional caution over Slim console's.

Mar 19, 2022 · About heating the RSX (GPU) and using a screwdriver to delid it: not all PS3 are the same, that method works well with fat PS3, but in PS3 slim (models 2500 / 3000) the glue on the RSX VRAM is stronger, so it's more difficult, and you might break the union of the BGA under the RSX, and also the motherboard of a PS3 slim seems more fragile (less ...

Oct 18, 2020 · Nice tutorial and photos (that black globes are a bit sadomaso thought) I like all the mentions to do this very carefully, the metal wire is a nice way to do it, i would say to insist more with the wire because even if you are cutting just a bit in every pass is fine, because we can do hundreds of passes, no hurry, is just a matter of having …

Aug 5, 2023 · Should I delid the PS3 Slim GPU before the swap or is the IHS necessary for the re-balling process? Like to protect the GPU? Must I do the voltage MOD first or can I do it after the swap? Can it be powered on safely without the voltage mod? I'm asking because I would like to send a both working PS3 to the workshop to avoid any misunderstandings.

May 5, 2021 · Today i decided to take apart my old PS3 to tinker with it a little. Wanted to try delliding both the GPU and The CPU, but during the delidding process i cut some traces on the CPU, killing it. Is there any way i could buy a identical CPU to the one on the board and solder it instead of the broken one? My PS3 is a CECH-2504A

Jan 11, 2015 · The numbers i just posted i just invented, is just an example, but of course i choosed them in the range of "stable working temperatures" i knew my PS3 was moving while playing The idea was working pretty fine, i made tests with a few games i had at that time (TLOU and GOW ascension won the horny stallion competition btw)
