to me its the early symptom..do take caution, prolly it will occur more often after these...CECHE 80G set was using 90nm GPU chip set with the highest YLoD probablity

seriously i don't want to scare people out from their pocket but the truth is there.

my post might be unreliable, but time will prevailed...

bro, mind to tell me what kind of precaution should i do?
so sayang my ps3 coz nearly 2 years i owned it..

or shud i say a total hardware failure

i don't believe sony can't repair their own machine, sumhow these problem gotta do with hardware stability or more precise wear down...

Mine's also a 80G SG set..
no problems with any other games.. sigh!
oh no.. what monyetbesi is saying..really scares me then!
bro monyet, tell me the precautions too!!!

huhu...i gonna send my BABY to SG soon...will charge around rm500 to get the refurbished ps3..huhu..
i duwan to repair coz will get back the damn YLOD again...i juz send to sony n get the refurbished ps3 with 3 month warranty..huhu...

Seeing more 40 GB ps3 getting YLOD makes me worried.

aik how do u noe my name....peliknye
i reper sendri2 punye
now skg my ps3 kena ylod blik
yeza kudos to sony for making my life miserable (penat ohh reper byk kli)
ahhh aku dah nk gile dahhh arhhhh

take a good care for ur Ps3 bro....

same like 40g version, their using 65nm cpu gpu but kena jgak...sony pandai la (sarcasm) arhahah

i dont know what more i can do with my ps3. i never download demos cuz scared overheat, i never play media, i never play for long hours (2 hours max per session) with average of 45 mins per session.

i dont charge my controller using ps3, i use laptop instead.

yet when i play U2, the fan still sound like crazy.....

i tot tat is normal for ps3 phat bcoz many lyn mmber face same issue like urs too...mine ps3 slim doesnt face tat issue 'yet'... ><"

Added on October 16, 2009, 3:03 pmmalang nyer 40G set dia xpakai 65nm GPU chipset, GPU masih lg stick pada 90nm chipset, cuma derang amend CPU jaa kpd 65nm chipset....

aku lagi takut firmware baru ni.. makin lame makin merunsingkan..

my ps3 is 2 years already, but still shiny like hell new.. lepas main terus cover dgn kain (kasi sejuk dulu).. takut dust punye pasal.. last2 kene gak..

that becoz the U2 was run in rick texture + framerate + everything you see delicious in there...the GPU was used at full resources, that why the system fan goes berserk coz their are working to cool da system as they could. what i can see atm the PS3 cooling system was GREAT but i do believe there are some slack in architecture by blending the heat out from the casing...some wut the hot air stuck within & couldn't pass thru the ventilation fin smoothly, causing the system to over heat in due time.

i saw some people said that they were playing in da aircond room & still got YLod? do you think play in aircond room gonna help cool your system? objectively yes, but in subjectively no...most likely the thing goes like these..... in cool environment lets say one place like your rooms, then put a ps3 system, when you turn it on it will start to generate heat in there, do you think it will go cool? i don't think so, coz the cool air thats enter will be converted to hot air & the hot air that generate will not vaporize on to the thin air bcoz the air there was not thin anymore & it will be only stumble in one place around the generated area & couldn't vaporize elsewhere due to being suppress by the cool air, for instance try get a hot coffee the put it in fridge, then you see wut will happen? the coffee will be cool but not so easily cooled it'll take time & if you notice the condensed fog just stayed in one place they couldn't move elsewhere to be seen that becoz the cool air were suppressing the hot air temperature goes down...in fizik (cheywah lol) the hot air were more like unstable atom they were apart from each other more like bloating (that why we call it a thin air) as for the cool air they are more like solid atom sticking up together (more like a fat princess) eiiiii? WTF am i tutoring here OMG ...ok i ask you a question, do you have sum laptop at home or in the office i mean in closed environment? how was it when you were using there? my hand was sweating while I'm typing these post, due to heat stumble around the laptop that couldn't vapor into the thin air...

so in my conclusion it doesn't matter if yaa playing in aircond room or not, to me its more like suppressing your system more than cooling it. i found that this is more related to ventilation system that why our ps3 always over heated...

now i'm pejam mata ready to be flamed

Dude, I may not suprise if you were invited to replace the hero in both CSI and Numb3rs new season.

hmmm interesting theory nyet.

Looks like nothing we can do now to prevent YLOD. Just praying you are not the "lucky" one instead

Since when Sony product are going the same path like Microsoft product?

updating ps3? maybe that the cause??
