The previous owner kept it clean like I do with my PlayStation Super Slim. If your not using your console in a long-term, always cover it with a cloth so the dust can't go inside of your PlayStation.

Gonna bw picking one of these up soon, been wanting to relive my childhood after I found all my old PS3 games but damn, it's been a while since 2014 and I'm honestly super nervous about replacing the paste, I've done attempted repairs before on SEGA consoles and I've always tripped up on the drives

thermal paste probably isnt needed on the 3rd Revision PS3's i just did it out of habit more than anything

I was the same way. I always ended up having something that didn't go back together right. Someone gave me a PS3 slim in very rough shape and I was able to bring it back to life and working really well. Mistakes were made and it's not perfect. But I genuinely believe that if I can do it anybody can.

@@TheJackal342 GO YOU for trying and you got it right enough to still have it work afterward! 😆 I'm embarrassed to say after watching tons of videos I still ended up with "extra" screws after putting my PS2 back together. It was supposed to be a practice run to replacing thermal paste on my PS3 so now I'm really scared.

Thanks for the detail in taking it apart and putting it back together! I'm surprised I was able to take my console apart, I'm terrible with these things and don't have that pair of tweezers you have, so I had to make due with some basic ones, those ribbon cables were a nightmare. I always had trouble with remembering which screw goes where. But I was successful. I did it to get at the fan and clean it out. Looks like I'll need to also replace the paste at some point. I started this cuz when I turned the console on today, it suddenly shut off after a few seconds. No red light. I unplugged and plugged it back in. The red light was back. So I tried turning it on, and got assailed by a jet engine fan which has never happened before. But the green light was solid. I turned it off, turned it back on. It was silent again. But I decided it was time to clean it, just in case, biiiig chunk of dust in the fan. I got all of that out. So far, so good, no issues. If it happens again, I'll try the paste.

Can you tell me what model is the PS3 Super Slim in this video? Like for example, I have CECH-4206C and CECH-4312A (1st and 2nd revision of PS3 Super Slim) and I am looking for a disassembly video guide to change the thermal paste Edit : Nevermind, in the video you did show that your model is CECH-4202C lol, hopefully the internal compartment is the same

I got my PS3 super slim back in 2015 after my old original aka "fat" PS3 from 2008 died from overheating and my super slim PS3 still continues to function perfectly with zero problems since I routinely clean it after long gaming sessions and keep it free of dust at all times.
@rickstechrepairs
@rickstechrepairs Месяц назад
iv got it as my default ps3 now, lower power usage = less heat, less chance to fail

@@rickstechrepairs exactly the point. That's why I recommend the Super Slim models from 2012 to 2017 over the Slim models from 2009 to 2012 and the original models from 2006 to 2009 when the goal is to pick up the most reliable PS3 model for long term usage. My old PS3 from 2008 was the original fat model and each time I turned it on, the fan noise got obnoxiously loud after at least 1.5 hours of gameplay after turning it on. The super slim model is silent and never gets crazy hot even after hours worth of gameplay.
