(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I think I have a dip on my rsx chip and it seems a penny helps to make contact and allows for me to get video feed. However, the ps3 does overheat which I believe it or due to air gaps. Can I use a thermal pad instead of the paste or does the heat sink and heat shield have to come in contact with each other? Also, I have stripped out one hole on the rsx heat sink. What is recommended to to fix this and best place to purchase the whole fan and heat sink assembly if needed? Thanks.
