Hi everyone,
I just bought a "new" Fat PS3 60 Gb on eBay 2 weeks ago. Still had its protective layer around, no dust inside and the sticker for guarantee was still there.
Problem is, it makes the sound of a hairdryer at full speed just by being on the XMB a minute.
The speed of the fan gradually increases until it reaches the maximum speed.
The system blows out hot air.
Just replaced the thermal paste this afternoon with some Arctic Silver 5 but to my disappointment, no changes.
I'd really appreciate the help if you guys got any ideas as to how I could repair this unfortunate issue :hmmmm2:
