I have all the bits i need but, unsure of the cpu sinks n fans? what socket old pentium sinks do i need? btw g.r.e.a.t. mod :) I have my eject n power touch buttons on the drive flap :)
@gilksy1 so i want to put my ps3 into a PC box because i have had my 6th YLOD and i need an advice to prevent it.I have been fixing it with your technique thx btw,hope you can help me
I can imagine the nice fit of Pentium 4 heatsinks but to secure them tightly is sort of baffling me. It seems like you can utilize the 2 existing holes from the PS3 clamps but there should be some sort of support and protection underneath right?
Can you define the flat ribbon cables used in the PS3? They seem like they are standard and can be acquired at a computer shop, but just to be certain can you list out the cable sizes (I'm sure they are defined by # of connectors and also gauge).
How do you wire for standby? From what I gather from other sources Standby is not really an option when you do this
Why such a high wattage power supply? PS3 only uses 380W at most and actual power usage is less
very impressive, good work bro. Keep it up, hopefully other people are still showing such enthusiasm for their ps3s. This has inspired me, i'll be uploading my own case mod soon enough.
mate aver am Spanish and I would like to do what you've done PC PS3 but as in the video do not understand your language I would like to explain it with more concrete images that look like they go the tow, fans, Push Buttons, and exit of the disc, etc. .. man would be too much to ask to see a step by step video, I agradeseria a lot, I have the 80GB disassembled and I'd like to do that but I lack pictures, well thank you very much anyway, greetings.
awesome videos. thank you, i'm about to attempt to reflux my ps3. i am considering aftermarket heatsinks. i keep seeing pentium 4 heatsinks being used. is that because they are the only ones that fit? thanks for the help!
Great but you give no details on the mods like hooking up the atx power supply to the ps3 motherboard, mounting the motherboard to the case, etc. This video really isn't very useful or informative. I'm sure I can find the info elsewhere but if you post a video like this, you should be willing to give out the details. It's a nice mod but the lack of info is not good.
Wow they should have had you design the PS3. Out of all the PS3 mods i've seen, this is the best hands down. I know the whole process would be hard to make a video of, but i'd love to see a video of you preparing the guts of a PS3 to be stuck in a custom case =D.
WoW This is Awesome Gilsky any Chance of a Tutorial of how to set this up i was thinking of Building one but using Liquid Cooling or Dual Radiator Liquid Cooling Technology. Please Let me know if you ever Make a Tutorial for this :)
If i heard correctly you re laced the GPU on the ps3 motherboard? Also with this pc hacked what are the odds you'll get the YLOD on it? Also please can you do a tutorial on this? Your the only person i trust when it comes to doing technical stuff like this and please post where you brought the parts and what case is that?
why not start selling a fix it your self kit meaning u get the case and the atx but u fit your own ps3 board this is an ace idea i was thinking of doing this but with a drive with the ps3 and microsoft windows system it look great
Gilksy.. Your Design is MONEY! I would NOT be surprised if you see Sony try and come out with a similar design.. Like PS3 MAX or something.. in an identical PS case. My friend and I just BOTH just said we would buy one. You better patent your PS3 Mod case NOW!!!

This is awesome! I after my 3rd ylod, I took the 60gb hard drive out and formatted it to be a fat32 portable drive. Now that I've seen this, how do I put the PS3 software back on the drive so that I can try this setup?
Nice work Gilksy!!! I trust your design way more than that of those ps3 slims... I would really like to know how much it cost in material to do this set up... I fixed my PS3 YLOD over 10 times now... so changing the setup to help keep it cool is something I am considering also...
Bro big up your self , I fix my 60g 2 times 1 year ov play I got out ov it , dis video shows the next way forward , how much to make me one and a controller ?

Epic. I've been coming up with all sorts of wacky ideas to keep a ps3 cool, I've even considered replacing the fan with a freon cooling system like you find inn an air conditioner or a refrigerator. I'm truly amazed at how practical and effective this is. I'm going to attempt to do this to a reflowed 60 gig and marathon on it. If it lasts a year being played at least 5 hrs. a day and some days 16 hrs. then maybe this will be the new way to save 60's.
you're a fucking genius.. sony should hire you.. i bet you what you just made would be a hell of a lot better than what they're doing now. keep it up man... cheers
you're a frickin genious mate haha. Im proper impressed. Do you have videos of you making this it would be really helpful.
