how about just get thermal paste? because people say dont get rebelled until YLOD and also when puting on thermal paste what % of alcohol do i put on a rag to clean off the old thermal paste?

Do you guys even clean the dust out of your systems? and you really wanna have It sitting where there is a good air circulation Goin.

What you guys should do is open your system and remove the fan and the heat sink is right there you might have dust in there and wipe your fan blades

What you could do is get fan I suggest a Honeywell turbo force fan it's sold in amazon for 14.99. What you do is position the fan at either the right or left of the system NOT THE BACK! and set the speed at 2 that's medium heating problems no more cause that will be a lot of air being blown and the more air the cooler it will be, trust I do this for my pc. Make sure you point it downward and check for dust every 2 months

Do you have all the screws in your system? especially the 4 screws which hold 2 metal plates underneath the motherboard, i "forgot" to put them on (bein lazy) it made my system run 75 without them, even with the best thermal paste. after i got a YLOD i tried to tighten them and my console worked again and my system ran below 40 on xmb and below 55 while playing GTA V, (i play without top to get a better airflow, believe it its "cools" it for atleast 5 degrees).
does your fan blow hard, ifso is it all cold air thats coming out from the back
