Review: Solid quality, allowed me to fix YLoD! - I have a 1st gen PS3 which I've used almost daily for the past 6 years (I don't have cable TV, therefor the PS3 is used for all of my video entertainment needs, as well as occasional gaming). Last night at around 2 AM, the system shut down unexpectedly and attempts to turn it back on resulted in the dreaded YLoD rearing it's ugly head! After doing some quick research, I ordered these pads, using same day local delivery for only $3.99 extra (Prime member), they arrived at 3pm and my old timer PS3 was up and running less than 2 hours later, thanks to these pads, a heat gun, a compressed air duster, Arctic Silver 5 Thermal Compound 3.5 Grams with ArctiClean 60 ML Kit and the Yellow Light of Death Repair guide from ifixit: [...] I will update this review if I have any further issues, so as to reflect on the longevity of this fix. Review: Great thermal transfer pad - I purchased these pads as a mildly adhesive thermal transfer pad for copper shims to cool a Linksys WRT160N wireless router. The other option would have been Artic Silver adhesive/epoxy, but that would have been permanent. The thermal pad worked great. I'll definitely be using this pad for other notebook and electronics cooling mods. [...] Update 2014-06-14 I've been using this thermal pad in other cooling mods in laptops to cool the chipset controllers. If your laptop suffers from unusual shutdowns even though your CPU and GPU are cooled properly, then try cooling the chipset controller. Generally speaking, the chipset controllers in laptops are NOT cooled in anyway. This is where a thermal pad an copper shim mod works great! Similar to the mod that I did on the Linksys WRT160N, simply place the thermal pad over the chipset controller and then place a copper shim over the thermal pad to burn off the heat. In general, I recommend the 20x20x0.5mm copper shims. ## Features - Made in the USA High Quality, Don't be fooled by inferior thermal pads. - Protect your PS3 from overheating, High performance thermal conductivity - Significant temperature drop, After installing these thermal pads and thermal paste your PS3 will run 10-15 cooler - Double sided adhesive for maximum performance, insures no air space between surfaces. - 10cm x 5cm piece, More than enough to cover all thermal pads in the PS3. ## Images ![High Performance Thermal Pad for Playstation 3 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61qQ4qEL8ML.jpg) ![High Performance Thermal Pad for Playstation 3 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51bdXG4g0pS.jpg) ![High Performance Thermal Pad for Playstation 3 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61f+WNrHogL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: what's the difference between using thermal pads for the CPU and GPU and using thermal paste like Artic Silver?** A: These thermal pads are not used for same application as thermal paste would be. Thermal paste is used for CPU and GPU to heat sink bonding like a normal PC build would use. These thermal pads are used for some of the secondary graphics chips that are smaller and don't have a dedicated heat sink. In a PS3 install, the pads get cut up to fit the size of a dozen or so small chips around the main board that produce a good amount of heat and it fills the gap between the chips and the aluminum main board shield so that heat can dissipate from the chips to the main board shield. Without the thermal pad, the chips don't contact this aluminum shield. If you take apart the PS3, you will see that Sony (OEM) used similar pad material for these ancillary chips as well, and this is to replace the old, shriveled up and/or missing pieces that were originally installed. I would highly recommend using this thermal pad material when re-building a PS3 console, however, I would not recommend using this material on the main GPU or CPU, you would still want to use Arctic Silver or similar paste for those 2 chips.Do a search for "ps3 thermal pad locations" and you should get results that show the various versions of the PS3 mainboard and the chip locations that the thermal pad is used on. **Q: Is there a guide on how to install these?** A: No, there isn't any guide. But the installation it's easy. Just be aware if it's what you order **Q: where do i apply these thermal pads? there is not guide.** A: When u open the console apply them next to and around the silver platters. And the walkthrough should be on YouTube Good luck buddy! **Q: what is the exact dimension and thickness your picture and info are contradicting** A: In thickness, I'd like to say about an inch think. Perhaps even less. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid quality, allowed me to fix YLoD! *by O***T on April 5, 2013* I have a 1st gen PS3 which I've used almost daily for the past 6 years (I don't have cable TV, therefor the PS3 is used for all of my video entertainment needs, as well as occasional gaming).

They are thicker than most generic pads and retains its form even with continued pressure applied. I bought this pad along with new thermal paste strictly to reduce the temperature on my PS3 thus lowering the risk of damage. I have an older 60gb PS3 and its fan would rise up to its 3rd setting (loud) within 15 mins of use. My older 60gb PS3 has 4 fan setting, quiet (start up), silent (barely audible), loud, and supersonic. After changing out the old thermal pads and thermal paste now my PS3 stays at silent most of the time. During the summer it would reach loud after 2-2 1/2 hrs of continuous play while now it stays at silent no matter how long it's kept on. These pads are a great way to reduce heat on older 20/40/60/80gb PS3 especially when combined with new thermal paste. I would completely recommend this to anyone with older model PS3 running really loud, hot, and/or both. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/1376141-high-performance-thermal-pad-for-playstation-3](https://www.desertcart.in/products/1376141-high-performance-thermal-pad-for-playstation-3) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
