Hi Guys ;)
READ THIS!: In this video, I show and prove to you that even on an overheated (NOT DELLIDED PS3),
undervolting fixed the most overheating issues!
On min. 17:12 i said about 10°C degree better Temps, but like you can see, it was min. 16°C degree cooler and not too forget with only 20% Fan speed instead 38%! Before it was 69°C with 38% Fan speed and after undervolting 53°C with only 20% Fan speed! CRAZY! So again, this is the best you can do to prevent overheating, including delid! It's better for your Power Supply, better for your CPU/RSX, better for your NecTokins, better for your power consumption and better at all the rest! Sure, you still can do a delid one day, but undervoltig is the best for sure!
After undervolting your PS3, your PS3 will run soooooooo much cooler, and IF, just IF the fan will run crazy one's again, you still can delid your PS3 :) You gonna love it, promise!
Undervolting your PS3 means also less WATT/TDP! Less Power Consumption and less heat!
For that Mod. you will need to get connected to the PS3 Syscon, please watch this video first for more Info: youtu.be/ZvqJQVd5pBY?si=2hud4_ydjSgR84L1
For the syscon reader UART adapter Google:

With undervolting, your PS3 will run way cooler because it needs less WATTS, lower voltage = lower Temps, lower Temps = lower power consumption!
Like you can see in this Video undervolting fixed the crazy spinning fan and the crazy high temperatures!
You can probably just use the same settings for your console if you have a CECH-A,B,C,E or DECR model. It's very stable and this should work for this ☝️ models without problem.
Cell: 1.100v (1E) or (3D) 1.1250v
RSX: 1.1875v (1B) for OC CFW
RSX: 1.1250v (23)
Of course delidding is important too, but for people who are afraid of delidding, this is the BEST way to go!
This will really solve the most overheating issues!
Like i told, of course delidding is important too, but undervolting is the BEST!
BTW: Undervolting has nothing to do with lower FPS, we are not changing the Core Clock Speed Ratio or playing around with the MHz values, we just undervolting because Sony have set to much voltage for the CPU/GPU! That's why they all running hot like fire!
So yeah, my work is done for now, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
Undervolting is the best you can do for your PS3, longer lifespan, cooler CPU/RSX/PSU and your PS3 case gonna be cooler too! For more info about undervolting, check out my YT channel.

THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH!!!

![PS3 Undervolting is a MUST!!! (Sherwood Syscon) + Power Consumption & Temps Test By:NSC
Hi Guys :)
Just for you to understand, normally the CELL/RSX runs with about 1.20-1.30volts, it depends the PS3 Model, condition from the NecTokins, your multimeter and stuff like that.
Me and other people proved that the standard voltage is just to high and not really need because it causes extremly overheating problems and this is just unnecessary...
With other words, your PS3 is able to run also with lower voltage and also way cooler, this made my PS3 running about min. 10°C Cooler and the fan speed got lower too!
For that Mod. you will need to get connected to the PS3 Syscon, please watch this video first for more Info:

Here you can download the ViD tables for Sherwood and Mullion Syscon:
https://1drv.ms/u/c/beb708d783520133/EXwN9N7hhUZGvfSMPnOHGPYBysdk2FhTzwVen_y9cS7UBA?e=PRW72b
Command codes for Sherwood Syscon:
Read CELL: r 50 01
Read RSX : r 51 01
Write to CELL: w 50 [your value]
Write to RSX : w 51 [your value]
Check Checksum:
eepcsum
If you have the same model like in this Video, CECH-250x you can probably try my settings:
CELL 0.86250v [75] Very stable is 1.12500v [4B]
RSX 0.84375v [78] Very stable is 0.86250 [75]
To be very sure without testing around just set the CELL to 1.12500v [4B] and RSX to 0.86250v [75] Should work fine.
On the PS3 Slim CECH-200x models you can go directly to 1.12500v [4B] for the CELL and 0.9000v on the RSX [6F]
On the Super Slim you can go directly 1.12500v [4B] for the CELL and RSX to 0.86250v [75] Should work fine.
All this voltages was tested on normal Firmwares (CFWs) without overclock
DO NOT INSTALL OC CFWs if you undervolting!!!
Dont forget to fix the checksum after every change, address on sherwood syscon is:
7fe Just do it like i show in the video.
w 7fe [fixed checksum]
Get your PS3 Delided and Undervolt it, this is the best of the best for your Baby!
