had my ps3 DELIDDED and repasted on both the die and ihs with arctic mx-4 thermal paste. the guy who delided my chips chose not to reglue the ihs down so as to make it easier for me in the future if i ever need to redo the paste temps on the xmb are
CPU is at 62c currently and RSX at 69c with 40% fan
any idea why the RSX temps are so high at 40% fan speed? i know the CELL cpu runs hot but i thought with a delid the rsx temps would go down

was expecting RSX temps to be lower after a delid at 40% fan speed

guess i was expecting temps to be lower also these temps are via webman mod while sitting at the start menu screen for the last of us

these temps are after 35 mins of sitting at the start menu

Not sure from the pics, but did the guy get the old silicone off the Cell properly before putting the IHS back on?

Looks like the thermal glue hasn’t been cleaned from the RAM chips on the RSX either, or they just have way too much paste on?

I would fix the above two and see if that helps as the paste on the dies looks like it might not have had enough pressure from the heatsink, maybe try and bend the clamps back SLIGHTLY too

    I will admit that one does seem more interesting than the usual Ambernic ones, and I already liked those.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I dread the price point.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    This looks like one of their premium models, so... $150 :glare:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    To me that seems reasonable.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's all choice and that's a good thing :)
