My consoles:
*Launch Fat CECHA01 (full PS2 BC) - 22 days runtime
*CECHA00 (full PS2 BC) - 172 days runtime. Frankenstein 40nm RSX + all NEK/TOKINS replaced.
*Launch Fat CECHC03 (partial PS2 BC) - ~60 days runtime
*CECHA01 (full PS2 BC) - 22 days runtime.
*Launch Fat CECHC04 (partial PS2 BC) - ~40 days runtime. Has a dead BD-drive. Probably swap with CECHC03 if it dies
*CECHB00 (full PS2 BC) - 3 hours runtime. Has a broken BD-drive connector on the motherboard. Using noBD CFW.
*Slim CECH-2503B ~80 days runtime
*CECHC03 (partial PS2 BC) - ~60 days runtime.
All the above are using CFW Evilnat PEX 4.90.

*Super Slim CECH-4303A. - 7 days runtime. Using HFW 4.90 + PS3HEN

I've repasted all of them besides the super slim (hardly used and hardly produces heat), haven't got into delidding the others yet. The slim 2503B is my go-to for PS3/PS1 games, then I use the CECHC03 for PS2 games.
Consoles I also own but will probably sell:
*CECHA00 (full PS2 BC) - 67 days runtime.
*CECHB00 (full PS2 BC) - 55 days runtime. The BD drive cannot read PS3 discs, going to see if I can fix that by using a donor drive from a CECHG.


Super slim makes a nice BD/DVD player that I can take when travelling. Honestly such an underrated model despite it looking a bit cheap compared to the Fat/Slim.

CECHA01 is used sparingly, I live in UK so the CECHA are incredibly rare to come across, notwithstanding the fact mine has such a low runtime. I took out the PSU (had the ZSSR) and put in a PSU from a dead CECHG. Not the APS-231, it was a different one that only runs on UK mains so should probably keep this in mind if I do use it abroad. Also I should probably delid and Frank mod it at some point.

Hi I like to make edits to this wiki usually about differences in models. Long time PlayStation fan, developer by career (though have no involvement in homebrew development currently).

My consoles:

  • CECHA00 (full PS2 BC) - 172 days runtime. Frankenstein 40nm RSX + all NEK/TOKINS replaced.
  • CECHA01 (full PS2 BC) - 22 days runtime.
  • CECHB00 (full PS2 BC) - 3 hours runtime. Has a broken BD-drive connector on the motherboard. Using noBD CFW.
  • CECHC03 (partial PS2 BC) - ~60 days runtime.
  • CECHC04 (partial PS2 BC) - ~40 days runtime. Has a dead BD-drive.

All the above are using CFW Evilnat PEX 4.91.

  • CECH-4303A. - 7 days runtime. Using HFW 4.91 + PS3HEN

Consoles I also own but will probably sell:

  • CECHA00 (full PS2 BC) - 67 days runtime.
  • CECHB00 (full PS2 BC) - 55 days runtime. The BD drive cannot read PS3 discs, going to see if I can fix that by using a donor drive from a CECHG.

Super slim makes a nice BD/DVD player that I can take when travelling. Honestly such an underrated model despite it looking a bit cheap compared to the Fat/Slim.

I use the Frankenstein CECHA00 for everything else :)
