Ok so i have a ps3 running on dex ps3ita.
last night i was playing on gta 5 for an hour and noticed a funny smell coming from the ps3.
I checked the temperature and the rsx was up to 82 degree's, is this normal ?
I was wondering if anyone has got any temperature values that they have successfully managed to keep their ps3 cooler than factory standard.

Thanks in advance

Danny

Seems pretty normal, mine runs about 72-80 etc, the weird smell you was smelling was probably from the heat hitting against the casing of your ps3 (the factory smell) unless it was more of a burning smell.?

And you can try the fan control pkg.

No it wasn't a burning smell.
what are the best temp settings to use in the fan control .pkg as I have had a look on ps3ita manager and would like to know the values that everyone else finds useful. .

Recommended temp is around 60-70 degrees. Which mine runs at with hardware fan mod.

My SLIM is also at around 82C after an hour. I think it's because we are playing GTA V and its a big game pushing the ps3 to its limits? Who knows. If you're paranoid like me just use fan mod. I set it at 58/59 as I'm paranoid of breaking something if it's too high. lol

82C is a bit high. Around 90C is where the PS3 will shut itself down due to being too hot. I keep my temps around 60C constantly. The lower you keep the temps, the longer your PS3 will live before it gets YLOD.

I recommend Control Fan Utility v2.0.3. Keep the setting on #Payload and it will keep your temps around 60C or lower.
