(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hello. Im doing a survey and i am wondering how long your ps3 ylod fix has lasted. State how long it has lasted, what kind of ps3 it is, and how it was fixed(oven method, heatgun, send it to Sony...)

Never had it never will lol same with my old xbox had it for 3 or 4 years never RROD

Edot actually had 360 longer I think now watch them both tear up now that I've posted this XD

The first time it only lasted about 3 months the second time i did it i drilled wholes into the bottom where the fan is for more ventilation and its lasted over 7 months. It will probably die again soon though the fan hasnt hit level 3 yet so fingers crossed

Its a 60gb phat and was done using the heatgun method

nice. what did you replace the thermal grease/paste with? ALso did you put the paste/grease just on top of the cpu and gpu or did you take them off and put it under and on top of?

if you've never had it then why have you commented

Mine lasted 2 weeks then needed reballing.. So eBay it goes.

I got my 60gb phat ps3 back in Dec 18, 2006. It lasted until Sep 25, 2009. I sent it to sony and it lasted about a week. Sent it again and I got it back Dec 18, 2009. Still have it today

i fixed mine with a hairdryer and it lasted 2 weeks and i kept doing it and it only started to work for only 2 days at a time than i got 320GB slim its cheaper than fixing it xonstantly

I have 3 ps3 and only has had YLOD.... it took me about almost year to fix it because i didn't have the time to fix it. To my luck it was on firmware 3.41, then i JB it to run lobbies when it took some sorta skill JB a Ps3.... it's been fixed for a year and half now i think. I have had no problems with it but i don't use it everyday

my 3.41 fat ylod on me the day before christmas 2010. i took it into the shop the following week. i got it back the same day. it ylod on me after an hour of being turned on. i had a 90 day warranty so i took it back for repairs again. it was in the shop for 3 days. the shop called and said it was fixed and they tested it for 4 hours straight every day to see if anything would go wrong again. they told me it was "fixed" and i shouldnt have that problem again. when i got home, it worked for the first 3 hours then ylod. i still have it sitting in my closet. :catfight:
