Use webman and set the fans to the temp you want and the ps3 will run cooler if that doesnt work you can change the thermal paste and remove dust in the case and fan this should do the trick

I recommend setting the fans at 35-40%.

Where do you have your PS3? Make sure there's space around it and maybe try pointing a fan at it.

It;s pretty cheap, some Artic thermal paste is about $7. You must login or register to view this content. one I found on Amazon, it's non conductive so I won't ruin the components of the PS3 if it spills. And by the way, only use a pea sized amount. It will spread out once you cover it up.
