As this is a tedious process thorough clean all repaste surfaces w/ IPA and micro fiber cloth - use good paste (arctic silver works great- can be found for $10 or less).Įdit: I have yet to see or experience a PS3 slim actually DYING (I've seen blu-ray failure turned out to be dust on the laser lens).

Optional: Consider repasting if you're a heavy user every 3-4 years (4+ hour daily usage).

Dust cleaning every 1-2 months (takes a few minutes using hand held cordless vac + dedicated clean paint brush - deadly dust buster combo).

Raised operation (1-2" off table top on sturdy surface as previously mentioned).

Ran it for 2 weeks straight and it never shut off. Can't tell you the number of times I've seen a PS3 shoved in a cabinet or enclosed area. Fixed the heat problem then bought this case with the blue led mod fan.

ALWAYS place your PS3 in an area with reasonable ventilation - ALWAYS.

I think it's worthwhile as it's a passive solution. I use a cardboard box roughly the size of the contact footprint (between the feet that makes contact to the desk surface). your PS3 runs cooler just by raising it 1inch off the table top.

Ive done some nice work (well I think its nice) on fat ps3s. Its bad that the case had a defect and i had to do the line horizontal, If you do the lines vertically it would look better, but if you use the ps3 with the vertical stand then this way looks better. Next weekend i will continue painting another stripe No screws were used, because its nicer when you don´t see them.Īnd then for paiting just tape, paper and spray paint. As "glue" I used a 2 compund epoxy thing that after some hours becomes rock solid. I had no dremel!, so i used everything i had at hand, All that was used was:ġ) a compas to draw a perfect circle on the back of the case and make it match the cooler position.Ģ) A cheap craft knife, i heated this thing in the kitchen to have plastic removed in the center of the circleģ) then i used a Round File to make the circle bigger, and when i was near the border.Ĥ) I used a V shape hard plastic glass, i covered it with sand paper 100 or 80 grit and started to rotate it inside the hole of the case to have a perfect circle.ĥ) I bought a mesh fan grill, like the ones used for the PC, i cutted it and "glued" it on the back of the case.
