Hi, first off i fixed the ylod problem. My ps3 turns on and plays for about 45 mins. After that it just shuts off. It will not turn back on till the power supply cools down. I know its not a gpu cpu problem because i replaced the power supply immediatly and it works again. Since i never had this problem before why is it starting to do this now? I mean i can burn myself from it. Right now i have the fan wired to a seperate power supply so it runs faster.

If all power supplies do the same thing, it is because some part of your YLOD fix allowed for massive amounts of power to leak to ground, thus causing the power supplies to work in overdrive all the time.
