(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hey NGU, I created this thread because I'm curious to see where other modder's ps3 temps are at, and what the overall is average is for the community! Of course this all depends on age, maintenance, model, and the temp of the room but more or less this thread is a good place to share feedback!

I've been in the modding community for quite some time now and now own 2 ps3's.

First one is a ceche01 (fat model) that was purchased in 2008. it has got the ylod 7 times now and normally sits with an hour of use at: 77°C CPU and 37°C RSX.

Second one is a cechg01 (another fat model) that was purchased in 2009. it has got ylod once and sits at an average temp of : 63°C and 55°C RSX.

Both of these run a fan mod and have had the thermal paste changed every 8-9 months with arctic silver 5 and clean them regularly.

Feel free to share some feedback on your ps3's temps!

my fan speed settings are:
Manual: at 40% fan speed (0x66) and I haven't had any problems.

Always in the 60s

i have a potentiometer soldered between the cables from the fan, my ps3 never gets warmer then 60degrees celcius
the speed is around 45% & i re-apply new thermal compound every year, also removing the dust from my console every year

I prefer 44%. Not very loud, but it also ain't silent. Temps are around 49c in xmb, and 50-65c in-game/2-3 hours of playing
