PlayStation 3 Frankenfat Service

This service replaces the 90nm RSX processor in PS3 PHAT models, that have a manufacturing defect, with a 40nm RSX processor from a PS3 slim or super slim. This can be done to any PS3 but it is intended for backwards compatible models.
 
ALL 90nm RSX processors are DEFECTIVE. Almost every GPU created from 2005-2008 was defective, these were put in all game consoles, laptops, desktop GPUs. It was a engineering/manufacturing error. We only use PS3 slim and super slim processors as they are not affected by these issues.
 
The YLOD (Yellow Light of Death) is a general fault that can occur from any component in the system from failing. This service will stop YLOD errors from the RSX processor. In FAT consoles with 90nm processors +75% of all YLOD errors are caused by faulty RSX processors.
 

This service includes:

  • CELL processor Delid
  • RSX Processor Delid if not using a NEW chip
  • Installation of 40nm RSX processor
  • RSX voltage modified to .95V using Sony's official method.
  • Replacement of all Thermal pads with new high quality +10 W/mk pads
  • Plastic shell and metal motherboard shield cleaned with detergent and lightly polished.
  • System battery replaced with user replaceable CR2032 coin Battery and relocated to the top of the console.
  • Bluray Drive cleaned and serviced
  • Power Supply inspected for leaking capacitors
  • NEC TOKINs will be inspected with an oscilloscope to verify proper operation.

Your PS3 will ALWAYS be serviced while on a board jig to prevent board flex. Working on a PS3 board while its laying on a table or your lap is a great way to create an intermittent issue thats difficult to find the cause.
