I have a 2503 Slim, recently cleaned it and replaced the thermal paste with artic MX4. Changed the fan. Still after ~10 minutes of usage, cpu reaches 80`C while the other chip (forgot it's name, I think RSX) stays on 45'C-50'C. Do you guys think deliding the cpu chip will help ?
The fan was on automatic settings in webman and was running at 80%

I believe that this is normal for the ps3 because the cpu and gpu in it have always not been well cooled, and that's where ylod came from. if you have already changed the thermal paste, everything should be fine, just don't leave it indoors and if it starts to overheat, it is possible that the reason is bad contact between the chips and the cooler, and as for the hot chip, it is even partly desirable that it comes out very warm air because it means that the heat is well transferred from the chip. I would just check the pressure between the cooler chip and the cooler, but apart from that everything is fine.
