PS3, with PC dissipators

[original version]

Wellcome.
I've obtained a second PS3, its a bit broken because it stops working every 10 minutes because of overheating.

I am going to disembowel this PS3 and try to resolve the problem so I can investigate with it soon.

Step 1:

I have a PS3 that I can disembowel.
A video capture device and a PC only used as a TV.



I disembowel it and extract the circuit board.



Step 2:
I adapted some AMD dissipators that I had at hand. I've prepared the wiring so I can clearly view the board. I've prepared the fans.



I take look and see the best way to position it. I apply the thermic paste and then I put them in the right way.





I enlarge the power supply unit and bluray reader wiring.



Now I have to adapt the PSU so I can have the circuit board free of any device below or above. Here we have the device ready and ready for linux to be installed.



The next step is to prepare the 40ns circuit and to make the two solding points on the circuit board.

We will aply the exploit and try to generate the dump so we can make it public (they say then the ones already released are incomplete).

See you tomorrow.
