Hi Everyone. I recently cleaned and repasted my PS3 Slim, used Arctic MX4 (no delid). My ambient room temperature is between 24-27 C. PS3 is in a well ventillated room, not in a shelf or directly to a wall.. However the CPU always runs warmer than the RSX. XMB idle is CPU 65 C and RSX around 60-61 C using SYSCON fán defualt settings. In GTA V they both peak out around 75 C equally after 30 minutes of gameplay, with 40% SYSCON FAN. Sometimes RSX reaching 76 C. In GTA V pasue menu after around 10 minutes, CPU stays around 63 C and RSX 57 C, with fán not going below 40%. I didn't use any custom webman fan settings. Is this a usual behaviour for a first gen Slim modell? The runtime is around 38 days only according to Webman. No SYSCON errors present when I checked the console with Ps3tools. Thank you.

Also, I cleaned and repasted multiple PS3 Slim and Fat consoles before with no issues, but this is my first ever launch model Slim, hence I am a bit unfamiliar and in doubt with the higher CPU temperatures.

I am using latest Evilnat CFW 4.92 CEX version (not PEX), with lates Webman Mod. A 1TB HDD is installed in the machine, Seagate Barracuda.
