I guess I lost them when trying to downgrade... I only have a loose one left, haha.

The question I have now is:

Why does temp go crazy high to when upper ps3 case is screwed on, but keeps steady at CPU 65 and GPU 60 when i just put the upper case on without screws? :/

its a slim?

Slim takes air from the above when the case is open, much better airflow, when the case is closed all you have are those cuts above the USB ports, and on the side of the console, I did a 80mm round cut on my case to help out with the airflow, I now have 59/53 temps

Yeah it's a slim

I'll try to have the upper case on top but no screws attached then. Feels weird tho, it shouldn't go crazy high even if i attach the screws.
