A hardware modder has built a heavily modified PS3 โPro v3โ with an overclocked RSX GPU and a custom 3D-printed cooling system.
The console uses two Noctua fans, server-grade heatsinks and custom ducting. During testing, the CPU reached 40ยฐC and the RSX 42ยฐC, with the fans at only 24% of max speed.
The RSX runs at 750 MHz core and 1,000 MHz memory, compared with about 500 MHz and 650 MHz on a standard PS3.
The modder says almost every game tested gets an FPS boost.
