Hello friends! Please help me!!!

I updated my fat PS3 to CFW PEX OC with 700/850 and my PS3 stopped working. It's stuck on the update. I can't finish the update to CFW Normal 4.92 Evilnat. It gives artifacts and crashes. Could you make a detailed video on how to increase the voltage so I can finish the update and get my PS3 back to normal? Please help me! A fat PS3 here in Brazil is very expensive!
 
Do you have a flash backup of your console? you might need to use teensy even if you don't have one. you could send the corrupted flash dump from teensy for someone here to fix so you can flash it again. Ask someone who is a Developer to help with corrupted NAND/NOR.
 
You're pretty much screwed, if you dont have a hardware flasher with a backup of your nor on hand then your best bet is to figure out how to shunt mod the rsx core to get the oc stable. I do not know how to do this on a PS3 so I cant really break down the process

A 65nm fat should be able to do 700-850 easily though some may artifact during heavy titles like gta 5, havent heard of one being too unstable to even finish the update process. Did you do this on a 90nm fat??

If you cant do any of these things then theres not much harm in putting the PS3 in a fridge to get it super cool then try to update it before it gets too unstable from the heat. Super unlikely to get it stable but atp its worth a try
 
I guess you can try to increase the voltages though Syscon UART, but idk if that would help.
There's a thread on here in how to do that if you wanna try it.

I didnt know rsx core oc's were done through syscon, I always thought it was some gameos trickery
 
Thanks friends, I solved the problem by putting it in the freezer with the wires out and a small TV. With great difficulty and artifacts on the screen, I updated it and returned to the normal CFW 4.92. Now the PS3 is working fine. I put the safest CFW OC, which is the 600/750, and it is working perfectly. My PS3 model is the CECHE01. Can I connect a CFW 650/800 to it?
Will it run perfectly? If so, it would be the maximum I think. Thanks for helping me

Why are you use OC PUP in the begin with when you can just oc through webman.

Glad to see the freezer method helped you out but why on earth are you overclocking a 90nm rsx? I'm not your dad but its a pretty good way to speedrun a 3034.

Update to evilnat 4.92 and install the latest xai plugin, you'll be able to figure out how far you can overclock your RSX without risking another brick though I dont think any 90nm's can do 650/800 stably
