I have not been into the files, but the slims (and possibly the newer fats) did not get a speed reduction, while the older fats did...so if you were to approach the issue through a CFW, the first place to look would be the differences that are applied between the various models...that should reduce the target area from ~250MB to ~10MB. Also, I suspect that it is more than a tiny shred of code; as there are at least 4 thermistors on the mainboard, and one in the cell, and I think another one in the RSX.

An app like speedfan would be great...but I think the CFW route would be better simply for lack of bother...it would be very easy to forget to turn the fan speed up if you had to do it every time.
