WHY DO I NEED THISThe 40nm is a very reliable processor and it also runs much cooler than the 90nm. 99% of PS3 90nm RSX processors are DEFECTIVE. Almost every GPU created from 2005-2008 was defective, these were put in all game consoles, laptops, desktop GPUs. It was a engineering/manufacturing error. We only use PS3 slim and super slim processors as they are not affected by these issues. The YLOD (Yellow Light of Death) is a general fault that can occur from any component in the system from failing. This modification will stop YLOD errors from the RSX processor. In FAT consoles with 90nm processors +75% of all YLOD errors are caused by faulty RSX processors. We have hundreds of satisfied customers using the 40nm/65nm RSX. We also honor our warranty guarantees. WE DO NOT USE STOCK PHOTOS. WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU WILL GET. NO SURPRISES WHEN YOU GET YOUR ITEM AND IT LOOKS NOTHING LIKE THE LISTING.
