I need some help on fan levels of a PS3 (Phat)

If after 15 minutes and the sound level is very high and not lowering perhaps CPU and GPU not has enough pressure in contact.
Have much care when doing it ... PS3 "fat" has problem in cooler when disassemble.
See the high number of users saying about it in Playstation official forums.
I has a last model PS3 "fat" damaged because of bad cooler contact.
Have care when mounting the cooler doing pressure because may damage the RSX solder balls.

Thank you for you response, it isn't very loud or anything. you just hear some wind coming from the PS3 and it isn't noisy at all and it gets plenty of breathing room. it is atleast more quiet than my PS4... seriously my PS4 makes 50% more noise than this one. actually, my ps4 is a vacuum cleaner compared to this.

Oh and about the pressure from the cooling on the cpu/gpu I made sure it was screwed tight. You can feel some good heat coming from the console not just cold wind or anything.
And if i reboot the console after letting it cool down for about ~20 minutes it just reverts to being quiet again.

ez chill has a little mod with a potentiometer allowing you to control the fan, but this also means taking it apart again to adjust unless you dremel a small hole and/or mount somewhere with access. It's a little expensive, but I dig mine. I'm planning on buying a second one for my fat.

off topic of your off topic, the ps3's (even the slim) was a very poor design for heat load removal. I cut a hole in my slim and used an old dust filter to create a much better design on my slim. above the fan (because it was essentially drawing air from within the case before I cut a hole)... looking at my fat, that would be much harder to do. however i am planning on figuring out some way to remedy that. if you aren't opposed to drilling holes, i'll bet there someone on the internet who has modded their fat with better airflow. literally drilling holes in places i'm assuming.

ps. it sounds like you already took it apart for new thermal paste. you might look into the "ez chill" on ebay. or making your own potentiometer.

I'll take it in consideration, but I don't think i'll do it. I play rarely on the PS3 and if I play on it, it's just short burst of about ~2 hours and mostly PS2 games.
