Hi. I'm picking up my original CECHA00 console next week with swapped 65nm RSX, delided CPU and RSX, changed thermal paste and all that stuff that should be done. I hope the console will serve without any problems for the next 10 years. Im also planning to put good 1tb SSD in it. But now the...

Summer is getting hot and i was wondering if there is anything I can do to optimize the cooling on my PS3. The console is running fine, so this is mostly about optimizing, not fixing any real issue. It's a CECH-42 has a 28nm RSX, and it's still running pretty quietly on the syscon preset, but I...

Was playing when it suddenly died. At first, I thought that it could be a software issue, as when I quitted the game, it re-worked. But later, it died on the XMB and for good this time :\ It was set to 40% minimum speed, and almost never needed to go up to 41%. I don’t think that the speed could...

I used webMAN MOD to set the automatic temp high at 61 degrees celsius. I have fan speed between 37%-70%, with PS2 Emulation fan speed set at 37%. This helped lower temps when I'm in the XMB (if anyone has tips on how to better configure this, let me know). But how do I check in game temps in...

Edit: SOLVED!! Hey! I got this console recently and it was very dirty So I cleaned it up with alcohol 90%. I reassembled and it worked great. After that I opened my console again and I replaced the thermal pad for one with 1.0 mm (30 x 30mm) like below: When I reassembled the console I...

Hello, I'm new to the PSN thing when using HEN, so I'd like to hear some safety precautions when going online with HEN. On my system I have latest webman mod, hen 3.2.2 and hfw 4.90. On webman, everything is stock except FTP is off (read somewhere hackers can steal idps if it's on while gaming...

[edit] this concerns a PS3 slim. As I mentioned in another thread, I replaced the original ps3 fan with a pc-case-fan. I made a test-case (ha!) by replacing the top cover with a cardboard one, so I can test different places to place the fan. I blocked all the ventilation holes (except those in...

[edit] this concerns a PS3 slim. So, I replaced the standard fan with a radial fan. Works reasonable. Speed control is the issue. If I set the speed in webman at 50%, the temp stays around 50’ C. But if I let webman try to keep the temp below 50’C , it goes well above 60’C, even if the reported...

I've been using WebMan-Mod (It's a fantastic tool, thanks Aldo et al for developing the tool) for the last year, and one thing that aways bothered me is the fan control (I usually game on PCs, so I'm used to MSI Afterburner Fan Control). Currently we have 3 options, use the Target Temperature...

Hey, So I was looking for a fan to replace in my PS2 as the noise is unbearable, having an SSD helps a bit, but still it's really loud. I've seen people doing noctua mods, but I couldn't see any file to print in a 3d printer to fit one, buying 40$ premade kit is overkill IMO. Printing such a...

I need some advice. I have a CECH-2501B and want to buy a new fan for it, as well as redo the thermal paste on it. What's the best replacement fan and thermal paste to order off Amazon or somewhere online though for that model?

I bought a week ago a CECHA01 PS3 dated January 2007 and it plays great, for $90 on FB Marketplace. I feel like a kid on Christmas. It sounded like an airplane when turned on. I opened it up to find tons of dust, an excess of white thermal paste, and the grey and power cables in the fan jumped...

I replaced the default fan on my scph-30001 to a fan from an spch-50001 console. It is dead silent which is what I wanted. I ordered a WD blue 3.5" hdd that I'm going to be using to add storage capacity for my PS2. My question is does the v9 fan push as much air as the v3 fan?

Hi all, I recently got curious as to what the best fan might be to put into my console. I saw that a lot of people say the 19 blade fan is the best, while others say the 1.75A Nidec is the best. All while neither side providing any data to back up their claims, so I decided to test every known...

Does anyone have a SSF30A fan that they would be willing to sell me? I'm trying to compare every fan for the PS3 Fat models. I already posted a comparison of the other fans on r/ps3hacks but somehow missed this one and I'm also adding more data points compared to the original.

Hey guys, I looked through a list of UART Syscon commadns and found one that seems to shows the actual SB tmperature. I talked to Aldotools on github, to add it to webman mod https://github.com/aldostools/webMAN-MOD/discussions/474 He said he would easiely do it but don't know the code for it...

Hi everybody. My PS3 is so blasted loud because of the fan noise, so I want to try replacing it to see if that helps. Which fan available on Amazon is the best one to get for that model PS3?

I installed the PS3 Pro theme/plugin a few days ago and since then the fan has been extremely loud. I tried uninstalling PS3 Pro but the problem still remains. To add to that, it's apparently gone and installed WebMAN on to my PS3. It appears as a folder right below the package manager. I heard...

Hi everybody. I have a CECH-2501B but I can only play it for about 10 minutes or so, before it becomes so loud my ears start to ring. I read online how you can do the fan cleaning thing by holding eject while plugging it in, have done that a few times but it hasn't helped yet. I've also...

I recently dug out my PS2 fat as I've had a bit more time for gaming lately. I never seemed to notice this when I was younger, but that fan is obnoxiously loud haha. I like to tinker and don't mind modding just about anything. So I did some searching and found a tutorial by William Quade who did...
