How to avoid PS3 from overheating & YLOD Guarantied.

[ZNITCHELZ]

talking about Ylod of deat i gotta just a thing taht,

Great vid nicely done!\

[vidosite1]

If you clean your ps3 regularly you should have no problems with the dost. You can't not buy new fat version anymore from the stores, so i will not worry about it the warranty, My PS3 is still going strong & I playing Uncharted 3 all the time on line & no problems with my system.

[misterfawkingunderst]

lol worst idea ever u get more dust and if u need repairs sony wont touch it

[vrz07]

no way man am going to drill holes into my ps3. There must be an alternative way to cool down the ps3

[bintikwala]

among all the youtube video yur is the best ps3 cooling god blez and happy new year

[vidosite1]

Yes it will help if it is on the side off the hard drive.

[FullStrikeOG]

Yo anyone! Does it work if i buy a table fan and place to next to my ps3? And have it on everytime i use my ps3? Does this help to keep it cool and avoid ylod? Thanks

[JuanCapuchino]

sure it will keep it cool, but u r still attracting more dust directly to ur ps3

[FullStrikeOG]

@JuanCapuchino So what should i do? Btw i have had my ps3 for 3 years now, i even had it on all night once, because of a fucking long update. It even overheated and turned it self off twice 2 years ago. i have had it on for 5 hours many times. And still no yellow light, im starting to think that it wont ever happend.

[ImTheMan63]

you Italian maffia bro?

[vidosite1]

Albanian mafia?

[YllkaS]

I was tony montana untill i took an arrow to the knee!

[vidosite1]

haaaa i pulled out my arrow from my knee & used!

[vidosite1]

No

[Socsom]

Did your ps3 ever had the ylod before?

[vidosite1]

haaa haaa u funny u LOL loser!

[steven12211]

DAMN he took that shit apart in 2 secs!

[skrilldawg]

EY NUNZIO MY FUGGIN PS3 GOT WHACKED.

lol, nah man. pretty decent idea. i might try that out on some of my older PS3s.

[casterlord]

Would it be okay just to put a small fan in front of the back vent because I'm sure drilling those holes voids the system or they won't fix your console if you had to send it in or something like that and where did you get that fan for the front is it battery powered or powered because I hear that the ones that plug in the back is just a waste of money.

[AleTJJunior]

thnx dudeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeee!!!!

[cronus6282]

i bought a fan like that here in the philippines the only difference is it have six fans and it cover the whole intake of the ps3 fat and i cut a fiber of moms old stocking to use it as a air filter for external fan intake to keep the dust out i know it sounds pathetic but hey my ps3 fat is 4 years old now and still running good as new

[Flexasaurus1]

enjoy more dust in the system

[robmack151]

As for the Modifications to the console to aid venting.... Nice, Clean and to the point will definitely help VENTING the HOT air! Look people, the problem exists because too much heat is being trapped into the system due to a poorly designed venting system.

Its the HEAT being Trapped by the SYSTEM that is causing the solder to Liquify enough to FLOW/ Break contact. If you dont think it traps enough heat, just look at all the Videos on people fixing YLOD problems with a hairdryer blowing into it

[MrParsonelli]

I like the extra vents idea but please please please anyone whos thinking of using a usb fan DONT!!!! the external usb fan draws more power from u ps3 and actually creates overheating problems for its working harder to power it ..i fell victim to this and was told by a sony expert NOT to use one...a pointless money making gimmick...his words not mine!

[lwalbertson]

having the ps3 vertical when it gets hot, gravity will pull the solder down causing ylod

[robmack151]

@lwalbertson I agree totally with this point! Regardless of how cool it looks, it only aids the YLOD for the reason stated. I have both a FAT 40GB and a FAT BC 80GB. My 40GB system suffered a YLOD melt away due to being VERTICAL, even though it's in the basement portion of my house which is 20-30 degrees cooler than the upstairs where the BC 80GB has spent it's entire horizontal life ( I bought it used from a pawnshop, to boot!)

Both have had their BLU Rays replaced due to SERIOUS MW2 Gaming

[rkolonich]

I have a Fat PS3 and will try it. who cares if it has holes! who is going to see them! I have had to relow mine 3 times now. I used artic silver and have the fan shown in the video but obviously its not enough!

[mrsparten11782]

DO U KNOW SOMEONE CALL Tristen vanbilljon?

[kevinoo5]

You know what this is a great idea heat rises so I bet the ps3 runs quieter which means it's running cooler.

[albertjenajbolji]

Thanks.

I will first try the USB Cooling fans.

If my PS3 continues to get noisy after only 15 mins of gaming, I will try your tips.

[BeeEmmW]

19 blade fan pushes less air than the 15 blade fan. 15 blade fan is more powerful

[Steeldude10101]

why all the hate he's just trying to help out?

[pogobull]

cool vid man..... have also done the same with drilling holes in caseing . have had one of those USB fans for my 60GB but git rid of it ,they are too noisy. but again haveing all those extra vent holes has worked a treat.

[vidosite1]

No really it does not use that much power because the fans do not draw that much Amp’s.

[ImSoAlpha]

doesnt the external fan use the systems power? thus making the ps3 work even harder?

[vidosite1]

How do u figure that out!!!!!!!!!!.

[TksTactics]

8 people broke there ps3 tring this

[vidosite1]

There is no more warranty on fat version ps3’s, that is the last thing I worry abut.

[xshakax13]

@vidosite1 actually gamestop still offers warranty on the fat ps3's

[chuyne619]

but thats going to void your warrenty

[vidosite1]

I disagree, heat razzies, I think if the air is being pushed out it will keep the ps3 cooler, is working for me.

[badash786]

No offence not having a dig but some of the advice in this video will actually make things worse, if u think about it one of the biggest reasons the early PS3s over heat is due to the power supply being directly above the GPU so if u are increasing its power demands by attaching a usb fan you will be generating more heat which will make the PS3 Die faster.

[XgenDaNcEr]

why do people dislike helpful videos? i swear thats so gay. i uploaded a video like this and im the only person who clicked like... WTF and i did hours of research for nothing

[vidosite1]

Is working Like a champ even when is 90F outside?

[kodkillen96]

still working?

[TrippyTheShroom]

does this seriously work?

[vidosite1]

That’s y my system is still working & yours is not, so that’s y you are on your third ps3 system Dumb ass.

[jeffteaguefanaug]

@vidosite1 would you reccomend a laptop cooling pad?? and a usb fan? together?

[Tylerstoessel]

Dumb ass you just hurt your system

[Baatish]

Yeah I saw one on youtube as well I'm searching for it too it is by a company named Thermal Take but my friend told me that plugging external USB fan to PS3 increases the heat PS3 is generating but I kinda don't agree with his logic, but he was telling me couple of days ago about a solution and if it will work I'll definetly tell ya.

[vidosite1]

But it works!

[Baatish]

are u serious........ drilling holes in such a beautiful machine??? this is got to be the worst way to keep ur system cooler. If any one is so desperate I'd suggest take of it's top cover and use it in air conditioned room. At least its better than destroying ur machine or making it look like cheese >_>

[FirstChoise01]

@Baatish i rather have a "cheese playstation" that actually works than a "beautiful machine" that doesn't work...

[Baatish]

@FirstChoise01 Ur choice what can I say or do but there are better ways to keep ur machine cool and in working condition.

[FirstChoise01]

@Baatish yeah i know, how a about a ps3 cooling fan, i want to buy one but i dont know where i can buy something like that..

[vidosite1]

When I play for a few hours my room gets hot from the system blowing a lot of heat this ps3 are like a small heater.

[DemonicGemini]

mines only overheats when its is extra hot out side making my room hotter

[FirstChoise01]

@DemonicGemini i got the same but its still anoying cuz i have friends who play a lot even in the summer and their psn doesnt even make a sound

[nutwar1]

im not sure if mine is overheating but i just all of the sudden starts to whine or make that "wwwwwwwwwoooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooooooooooo" noise

[Spriggan80]

u never avoid ylof man gpu turns over 80 c that degrade  gpu weld material no matter if u put holes in base or if u put coolers on it

[XgenDaNcEr]

or you could just it in the refrigerator

[moderndude1234]

lol it does help but then its wayyyyy risky so the ps3 slim has a less chance overheating but then you could do that to help it more but i suggest u vacuum it but if you dont have one then u can do that

[912ace]

Thanks for sharing 

[vidosite1]

No way you friend is a Dumas’s.

[vidosite1]

I hope you saving you money to by a new PS3.

[shg12345]

i will never do that with my ps3, u r insane
