PS3 PS3 FAT delid and thermal paste question

[xspartantt]

Basically, it seems it was reset to default 2 times

The error 09 happened 29 seconds after the first timer reset
And error 05 happened 15 seconds after the second timer reset

We dont know the exact timestamp, but we know they should be higher than error 10, with a timestamp of Sat May 28 07:57:30 2022
Thats the last realistic timestamp, so all the errors with year 2005 or 2006 happened in the last 20 days or so

Oh, now i see, there are 3 errors 1002, and i have had exactly 3 shutdowns when playng recent exclusives games (two times resistance 3, once the last of us), i guess this demonstrates that the RSX chip is not getting enough power for them or maybe it could be incompatible or just plain defective (it was delidded) , but i wouldn't know because i have been playng some Fallout 3 and MGS4 just fine without issues, and PS2/PS1 games upscaled to fullscreen with smooth edges enabled too.

I dont think the RSX delidding caused any problem, and there are not any incompatibile games with it

The first time you posted your errorlog i focused my attention mostly in error 1001 (for CELL) because is repeated a lot, and because i was not sure when some of the error happened (the timestamps)

The point is that timestamps indicates which errors are "actual" (requires your attention) and which ones are old (maybe could be ignored because was caused by problems that was fixed... so the error doesnt exists already)

The timestamps from 2022 are real... we should consider them "actual" too (happened in the last 30 days or so)... in other words... you need to focus your attention in errors 01 up to 15
The others from 2015 or older are a lot of 1001 too... and a 1004 that maybe can be ignored

Anyway... yeah, you are having 1001 and 1002 related with CELL and RSX power, thats not so bad because probably means are fine, and the problem is something common that affects both
Either the tokins (because all the tokins have the same age), or the PSU

Btw, i would install a new battery because syscon is going to continue recording errors and every new error is going to overwrite the (real) timestamps older than 2022 and eventually you are not going to be able to see wich errors are "actual"

Ok quick update, bought a PSU for 10 euros, LSEB1226B1, clearly a EU psu, it works fine (no power offs or weird usb stuff), but the console still shutdowns at Resistance 3 , this time lasting a tiny bit longer , but stuff like temperatures are also not changed at all.
I guess i will keep this psu inside the console, since it seems to be less consuming.

Small edit : Normal use power usage is the same as APS 226, and this model LSEB also gets somewhat hotter , so i've ended up putting back 226 and will store this LSEB for future cases or replacement.
