Seems like a massive exaggeration to say that they WILL die though.

Not an exaggeration at all. I worked as a QA tester for 7 years and all Debug units and models of PS3 phats (around 450) suffered GPU failure at some point. Even my personal CEX launch 60GB model died after 5 years and even a professional reball job didn't save it completely. They're all time bombs tbh.

Can you tell me a good fan speed/fan configuration?
Honestly, just set the fan as fast as you can before it starts to become annoyingly loud. Maybe around 50%. There's no specific level.

The higher the better, but the console does start to like a rocket ship around 50% or so so don't set it too high.

I highly suggest dynamic fan control. Set it to around 70 degrees C no higher.
Both my Phats went absolute fucking CRAZY on Webmans default dynamic fan control. Like, so loud that I was scared to not flip the switch on the back. I've never heard a louder fan on a consumer device. Put both back to syscon and all was fine though.

Yeah I seriously advice against that. The fans went crazy because they are trying to cool the chips that the syscon settings let run way too hot. (This is why phat models always die. They didn't cool efficiently and Sony didn't want something that sounded like a jet engine going out to consumers. So instead just set the syscon threshold too high.

Unfortunately, that does demonstate the point that others are making - that Phats run waaaay too hot. It's probably worth using webman but using a custom fan speed that you can tolerate.

Anyway, I made the switch from Ferrox to Rebug today for one reason - the ability to fake save data owner. This has allowed me to recover my Persona 5 save from my old console. Very pleased.

reason this isn't usable on superslims??
Metldr2

Basically this piece of boot code which was included on all newer consoles will panic when the old signing keys are presented to it. (The keys used to sign CFW updates) in short it does work on superslims that's why they brick. The exploit does indeed give us write access to NOR and does patch it. However this patch triggers a panic in mtldr2 and the console refuses to boot. Just wait as a HEN or homebrew enabler is sure to show but it will be a temp hack

Download and put on a USB stick. Put USB stick into PS3 and install Package from your newly added icons in the menu. :)

uhhh, what verson? base? UPD? priority off/on? stealth link give a 404 error :huh:
You need base, UPD is for updating from an older version.
Also, a bit off-topic, but why would Multiman crash and return to XMB when I have cobra enabled and I try to browse my games on the retro section? (Yes I had already changed MultiMan to Cobra compatible mode and it did the same thing)

Hey guys can someone help a poor turkey out please? My ps3 slim is running Cobra Ferrox 4.82 but once it loads to the XMB it shuts off then goes to "Connect usb to controller and press PS" or basically recovery mode, in a loop, recovering system files then going to XMB only to shut off and start over. Any help is greatly appreciated.
