most definately it needs REFLOW (if its fat model you good 99% of success, SLIM model 5% chance)
1. take it apart, clean any excess of grease, dust, dirt or old heatpaste leftovers
2, reflow (put your board in preheated oven at 210C with fan setting on for about 6-7 mins
3. let the board cool naturally, don't rush
4. reapply heatsink compound 1mm layer on both chips.
5. re-assemble
should be 99% chances

hey thank you for replying back ! as to cleaning the mother board ...i am guessing i got to remove the freshly put thermal paste huh? there seemed to be some thermal paste on ps3 and other stuff on ps3 that probably got there from last time i sent it to get fixed any secure way to clean the motherboard? would i have to get new pads aswell? or i can i peel em off and stick em back after with thermal paste?
clean it of as much as you can so it resembles picture of new object. anywhere you have to use liquid to clean use only isopropanol alcohol (IPA) - does miracles. toothbrush also :)
let me know with the progress
If I ever had to do a janky reflow I'd just throw the motherboard into the oven at ~350f for 15-20 minutes then let it cool with the door closed until I could handle it. I've only ever had a few fail again after that but they were on their last leg anyways lol

Hi, seems like u need to reflow the motherboard. Search on the internet for how to use an oven to help you do this at home. However, I recommend that u watch a couple of videos and then attempt it. Clear all ur doubts before you try to do it. Write back on what u did. Good luck.
