After the revolution of the Webman overclock, I had manner of testing with peace of mind what clocks my PS3 Slim (CECH-2504B) could reach, after flashing the 700/850 CFW (Which luckily didn't brick me). After tinkering, I discovered that the core can clock up to 750MHz stable (800MHz will throw...

Is there any way to figure out the RSX revision in software? Or do I have to disassemble the console? Also, about Super Slims being cheap, yeah, you're very right. A friend of mine owns the 500GB Super Slim. When spinning the fan to 100%, his console legit starts vibrating so much that the Hard...

Alright. I'll be updating with the 700/850 Beta 9 4.91 PUP. Currently I am on Evilnat 4.89. I can just update as normal right? I have successfully updated to 4.91 with 700/850. Thank you very much Mitsu for your help. I will now do some testing to verify stability and whatnot. I am curious to...

That wouldn't be bad. I'm not looking for record shattering OCs. Just something that can make Gran Turismo 6 run decently. You got any idea where I could get an Evilnat with that clock config? Do I have to bake it myself? I think I'd be insanely unlucky if my console bricked with 700/850.

I don’t need to keep fan speed that high to have low enough temps, but since it’s summer and my room temp is in the mid 30s, idle temperatures are high on my PS3, despite the recently swapped thermal paste. Since I was aware that at 75 degrees, both Cell and RSX start to suffer, I was trying to...

Afaik all you need to do is install the pup file with the overclock, at least that's what I did, and my console is still working thankfully

Yeah, I have the same feeling. This is something else probably. I was blaming the fan (for some reason) because with high speed I mean >75%. The more I get close to 95% of fan speed, the more often the console seems to crash. I have also checked the syscon error log over and over again but...

Can confirm. My 25XXB will often completely shutdown during gaming. The red LED turns off too. This state can't be reverted unless I unplug the console and plug it back in. My RSX Frequencies are 600/750. This occurrs especially when my fan speed is high. It might be due to some other factor...

I heard someone say that CELL overclock isn't out YET. That's quite interesting, because Sony and IBM were boasting about having CELL Processors running at 4GHz, which might imply that we have quite some headroom over CPU frequencies too, just like GPU. However, in my honest opinion, a way HAS...

I see. Thank you for replying. Considering that as I said before, I’m running this 4.87 CFW Ferrox with Cobra 8.2, how can I get to the incoming evilnat 4.89.3? Am I going to lose any data? Is it as simple as getting the new PS3UPDAT.PUP and letting the console install it?

Hello, I’m new to this site and what pushed me to sign in is the interest in this project. I’m not new to PlayStation software modding environment, since in the past I modified ps2, psp, psvita and just a few years ago my Slim PS3 CECH 2504B. That’s not the focus though. I’m currently running...
