So i brought a spares/repair fat ps3 for pence and got it up and running with cfw but the rsx temp stays at 2C while cpu is 66C, any ideas why its so low ?
 
I'm not really a hardware person, but I think there are sensors inside of the unit that determine the temps. if something is wrong with them, they could show the wrong temps. that can't be the real temp, I'd imagine.

Well I've been playing TLOU and no overheating fan kicks in.
So all runs fine. Do you know where the sensor for that is coz i could replace it off my scrap fat ps3 ?
 
Really hoping someone knows a solution.
I've been playing COD for bout 2 an half hours and had no problems with the ps3.
I think I'll just make the most of it as i brought 2 for a tenner and got 1 working 100%, so all good I suppose.
 
I think knowing the temps was a bit of a double-edged sword for a lot of people. most people had no idea that their systems were getting that hot, which is normal, so they become more concerned with temps than enjoying their games. that's what happened with me and the 360 after one system died due to rrod, and discovering that the systems had overheating issues. I couldn't even play the system anymore due to worry.
 
Are you using an older version of cfw and Webman Mod? I heard they have temperature errors, like the ones you show.

What model of phat is it? Currently there are only schematics for cok001, cok002 and sem001, which you can get on the internet.Of course the worst case is damage thermal diode inside the chip.
