To make this test, first install "iris manager" and configure the fan speeds to be controlled by syscon ('''sys_sm_get_fan_policy''' in '''mode 1''' allows to see the default values syscon is using in real time at the bottom of the screen)... then turn off the PS3 and let it cool for some hours to return to ambient temperature
To make this test, first install "control fan utility" or "iris manager" and configure the fan speeds to be controlled by syscon ('''sys_sm_get_fan_policy''' in '''mode 1''' allows to see the default values syscon is using in real time at the bottom of the screen)... then turn off the PS3 and let it cool for some hours to ambient temperature


After this preparation start the test by turning on the PS3 and enter in iris, go to fancontrol settings screen as faster as possible, then start taking notes of how the values that appears at the bottom of the screen changes over time

This test can last over 60 minutes in some PS3 models and will not reach the higher temperature values because the efficiency of the cooling system doesnt allows the PS3 to overheat for obvious reasons. The maximun temperature on the test is not important for this table, the values of the fan speeds are (and the temperature asociated with this fan speed change)
This test can last over 60 minutes in some PS3 models and will not reach the higher temperature values because the efficiency of the cooling system doesnt allows the PS3 to overheat for obvious reasons... an overheat can be forced by blocking the airflow grills (any of them) with any object but this is not recommended in a PS3 that is working in good condition and can cause a permanent damage to the motherboard
 
A controlled overheat can be forced by blocking the airflow grills (any of them) with a plastic bag, only use this method for small overheats around 4º or 5º that are the normal peaks that will be present in-game. When manual overheating never exceed the '''overheat shutdown temperature''' that is around 85º because this can cause a permanent damage to the motherboard
