Hi,next time when you see flashing red light go back to XMB , you should get message that console is too hot.
Ps2 emulation is CPU demanding, thermal paste is dry under the IHS need to delid CPU and change thermal paste
Random shutdowns points to Nec Tokin capacitors issue, probably need to replace them.If you use ps3 advanced tools application you can extract Syscon error log to be sure.
I had same issue with CECHA-01.
Console had also low runtime something around 20 days( probably not been used because of the GPU issue).I open up the console, change thermal paste and the console never display anything after that.
Sadly but your RSX is dying.
