(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); My PS3 had a problem 3 months and 2 weeks ago and I had to change it's GPU. Everything was good for 3 months (the fans were very loud but no problem:dumbSmile but now, about 1 week it started to overheat very fast. Sometimes it overheats in 20 minutos other times in 10 but now, if I start a game it overheats in like 2-3 minutes and a message saying "your system become hot, shut it down blablabla:FU:" comes up on the screen after this time.. :/ Can anybody help me? Thank's guys. (Sorry my english Winky Winky):bye:

I live in Brazil, I can't send it to Sony. I am thinking about buying a new one. Today I played and the message didn't show up because the weather is not as hot as other days but the fan is a little bit loud and annoying :/

Then perhaps your best bet will be to get a new one.

If the fan is loud try clearing out any dust. My fan sounded light jet engines before I took off any visible dust.
