    Tutorial The Ultimate PS3 Repair Guide, YLOD Repair, Replacing the Nec Tokin Caps, Delid, Syscon Diagnoses

    I've not finished reading through all this yet but I dont think the capacitors being chosen are very good either as you end up with bodges like this which in fairness are electrically fine.

The AGS definitely looks better due to the glass screen cover sticking directly to the screen so there’s no light bleed like on the AGB.
