lol people saying they got ylod and their ps3 runs fine, ylod means the thermal paste between the cpu and gpu is gone meaning that your playstation will not function as a saftey feature from overheating.
TO FIX:
1. dissassemlbe ps3
2. take a credit card and spread the existing thermal paste OR (recommended) buy more paste and apply the new paste and spread around
3. reassemble
4.PROFIT
