(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Suddenly my JB PS3 keeps getting a overheating notification and turning off around every 5-10 minutes when its not even that hot at XMB screen. I've been on a Jb PS3 for a bit and I have never seen this notification pop up until recently. Its the 4th time it shut itself off now and i don't know how to fix it. I recently changed the thermal paste a month or 2 back so its not a thermal paste issue. I can feel the power supply in the back since i took the top off of the PS3, and when i am gaming on it, it gets hotter than how it is now constantly shutting iit self off. Any suggestions?

There's way Too Much..
Im not an expert ..but you may need new thermal paste. It's a big factor in heat.

that's what i thought but seems odd because i changed it 2 months ago.
how often do you change yours for a comparison?

You do have Control Fan/Webman Mod Fan Control setup on your PS3 right??
