    Sometimes investing a few quid for some new thermal heat paste can pay dividends tbh....

    I could tell you my adventures — beginning from this morning,
    but it's no use going back to yesterday, because I was a different person then.

    If you open the PS3 it voids any current or future warrenty that you would have on the console, I don't think it's wise to do it anyway... These machines are not supposed to be opened unless you exactly know what you're doing because they're not meant to be highly customisable; they are of similar fixed layout of hardware a laptop has.

    If someone has a PS3 Slim or a Super Slim then it's highly unlikely given a warm room temperature, that a PS3 would overheat. If one of those consoles gets too hot the system automatically switches itself off. I could only imagine that the reason a PS3 overheats is due to placement or having upgraded the HDD to a higher speed, which is not recommended by Sony.

    Ultimately if someone has the very first PS3 (fat) then, yeah... Those things are extremely prone to failure since Sony had not invested in many fail-safes then and a lot were being sent back during the time shortly after release due to overheating.
