Sure, that's good advice. If my PS3 dies beyond repair I can see how having an official backup on external disk is worthless :) I was wrong when I used the term "OFW". I just want a firmware that is as close to official as possible but with overclock enabled. I understand that I wouldn't be...

Haha yes, I'm aware :D I just used the term "OFW" to make it more clear what I would like to achieve :) I think I will be delidding the RSX chip and replacing the paste with Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut, so hopefully that will solve potential overheating issues. Also I'm using a Slim model 2003...

Nice! Will check it out tomorrow. Thanks :)
