  • Can I use Silicone Base-Heat Sink from Radio Shack??

  • @TheAlexwoolfolk  yeah!

  • I have watched so many videos on how to do this and you are the only person who actually seem to know what they are doing. Thanks for the video i will now try fix mine for myself. also dont suppose you know how long it will last cause most of the other video say it works for 200 hours but would be great if it lasts for longer? Big up yourself !!

  • @Leverett89 thanks! I hope I helped and you have fixed your YLOD!!

    it depends, my old ps3 is still going 3 months latter!!!

  • If you don't mind me asking, what's the output effect on the heatgun? And for how ong should i heat the specific chips? So i don't melt anything down.

  • @Ohem1 Just heat it up until it glows red, just don't keep it in one place two long. (thats the CPU, not the small chips etc....)
