PS3 Delid w/ Liquid Metal! | 11°c Drop! | PS3 Fat Restoration Part 2

Great video , going to have to do this with my Ps3

Heroin needle lmao

Did you ever check error codes?

@MELLO será que daria para fazer no super slim e slim ?

Use "fishing line" for flossing the silicon adhesive (de-lid the CPU)

I am looking to get a hold of you to ask you some professional questions. How would we get in contact with you? My company loved your input and we would like to consult with you. If anyone in the comments knows how to contact this gentleman let me know, thank you.

Galio y aluminio, DEP😢

I know it's an old video.. But, please for the love of all that is holy/unholy.. Get some organization bro.

How can you see cpu/gpu info temp and ram ???😅😅

why didn't you remove the ihs completely?

Why dont people heat up the painters knife and use tape to secure the shield when it pops.

hey man! so how is it doing now?

40-45% fan speed all the time

Dude don’t use superglue on the IHS, that’s just wrong, also always remove the old glue

Always good getting the system cooler. With the backwards compatible ps3s its not a matter if, but when they die. so making them last as long as possible is great!

all the thermal paste renewal, and unlidding is cool, but I saw no one work on the heatpipes, and heatsink thermal conductivity...it wuld be cool to see those improvements...

Liquid metal is bad if you planing to play all the time but not much if you only play ps2 for little bit like i do

Seen this a lot on multiple videos i belive the rsx should have normal thermal paste and cpu cell liquid metal

I bought thermal grizzly liquid metal and nail polish. I already have delided the rsx and I'm not planing to delid the cell because it runs cool. My only concern is about the liquid metal leaking because I hold my console vertical. Is it actually possible the liquid metal to leak?

used printer paper and painters tape to cover up everything but the cell cpu and I used the same ifixit tool but i sanded it down and warmed it up and it cut through easily

i'always known that thermal paste only apllies to one side of the cpu, but you applied liquid metal on both the cpus, gpus also onto their covers. Is this how liquid metal is applied? to both sides? cause thermal paste only applies to one side. on top of the cpu cover and not to the heatsink. which is it?

man my ps3 slim rsx kinda dying even at 70% fan the gpu just keeps getting worse lol the cell is fine is at 52 and the rsx is at 81 and im scared to mess around the system lol

This not working ps3 use aluminium cpu case and liquid metall killing fan system ( i kill my loving ps3 fat use that idea

So dope, thank you for posting this man. I plan to do this when I have the money

Why do you have your fans at 28% that’s horrible for your console having your fans at 36-45 % is better

quitar el IHS y poner en disipador en contacto directo con el DIE se le llama Delidding. Con pasta térmica basada en metal líquido se puede mejorar las temperaturas en hasta 20⁰C o más. Pero ojo, porque el metal líquido se lleva muy mal con el aluminio DEJAS EL IHS AMIGO ? cual delidding?

Mucho ojo con usar metal líquido con aluminio en tu PC, ¡peligro de explosión!

its not deliding N1 and N2 METAL in aluminio ? crazy man ,

Nice job! I was doing one of these once and had my hand fling like you did and knocked a capacitor off I still have the capacitor and the unit and I've yet to try and put the capacitor back on but I'm going to attempted this week I doubt it's going to work though.

Just info, you can applied some conformal coating on the board around the chip with liquid metal. Just to be safe. Anyway, isn't the heatsink pad (where the RSX and CELL land on it) made of aluminum? is it safe for it to be exposed on liquid metal?

Tried delidding one time and ruined a BC PS3. Good job!

The RSX didn’t have a bare spot dude. It’s stuck to the top of the IHS. The paste is just dry now and stuck to the IHS when you de lidded. Also it’s absolutely necessary to use new paste or thermal adhesive for the DDR3. Any extra heat around the RSX which is easily the most fragile and heat affected component when it comes to longevity, isn’t a good thing. Even if it’s only a few degrees it’s still a few degrees.

Anyone here in the States that can preform this to my PS3 backward compatible never been open. Just dugout and very dusty, before I start playing it.?

Impressive result. Do you used some kind of protection for the component near de cpu and to prevent a leak?

9th gen is when the IHS was soldered. I was debating getting a 8th or 9th, and the thermal paste on the 8th was the deal killer.

At my slim model i have 53-54° cpu and rsx 61 with max 29% speed fun in game after 2 hours play ,and with syscon setting i have CPU 57°,rsx65° speed fun max 27%. Is ok this temperatures?

What kind of temps are you getting when running PS2 games? Also, what were your fan settings in this video?

How is this ps3 still going, temps ?

Pro-tip, to clean the IHS and Heatsink and remove all impurities, use spray on Electrical Contact Cleaner with lint free paper towels. It will clean far better than Isopropyl Alcohol and you will get slightly better contact with fresh paste. The Contact cleaner dissolves old paste really quickly which gets into the small imperfections and allows the new thermal paste to occupy that space. Electric Contact Cleaner is amazing stuff and is also useful with fixing dirty USB ports and cleaning up liquid damaged electronics.

How the fuck he didn’t destroy it, I’ll never know but fairplay for making it work.

Can the PS3 still stand vertically with the liquid metal installed?

My ps3 60gb l pickup comes on in Chinese switch it on then 6 secs red light.if l go in to safe mode try to update it stays on then 20 minutes later error code 8002F281

It’s not recommend to overclock the RSX as it would decrease it’s reliability. I used trimmed down paint knives to delid my Xbox 360 and PS3 include the southbridge on the PS3 which a lot of people miss, it’s really easy to delid that. For my Wii and Wii U i used an even thinner knife set. To further improve the cooling on the PS3 is to replace the thermal pads. I used Thermal Right pads as a result it took some degrees off. The temp difference is insane.

Would delidding help improve fps stability

Great videos, I was considering doing this to my own PS3, but I get mixed answers on the longevity of Liquid Metal. How often would you have to replace it if at all?

Is the metal liquid ok for the heatsink? I read some people saying that it can only be applied on copper surface.

No need to heat it up, CPU hold thermal glue and RSX silicon which both have +250 C tolerance. Just need very thin and sharp tool (i use painting spatula) and a drop of silicon oil.

Hello i want to try this in couple of days i need delid so bad cause my graphics rsx are 75-80c 85c max only delided cpu with thermal paste cause it was easy and it stays at 60-65c,i want to try this with liquid metal and actually put on both rsx and cpu does yours still work and what position does my ps3 need to be vertical or horizontal and can i move it cause sometimes i go to grandma house and put it in backpack and move it and how recently should i change that liquid metal 1-2 years?
