2 more smaller screws (don't know what size...small) just below the top middle screw and top right screw (in the picture). Look for the arrows...
can confirm, might be the backwards compatibles only
This usually isn't needed as you can additionally unclip the card reader by pushing the tabs out while lifting the top, They are located at the bottom of the screw holes with the arrows pointing at them
after you remove the screws, you may have to push a tab to take the cover off if you meet resistance on one side of the cover. Here is a link to a video that explains it, saved me lots of trouble:
Thanks @ericksi33, this really helped me out.

1st attempt, fan loud. Ps3 lasted about 2 wks. 2nd attempt noticed very poor contact between heatsink & cpu,gpu when taking it apart. Research - Found a better way to apply thermal past. I personally disapprove of guide on this. A small bit about the size of a grain of rice in center of cpu is plenty. Clamp the heat sinks back on. Then take it apart & check contact area. Thermal paste should have spread to about the size of a quarter.(more is better. Less then a nickel size is poor contact) possibly weak clamps. Carefully applied pressure onto the cpu & gpu, pressing them into the heatsinks before clamping heatsink clamps on. Achieved greater then quarter sized thermal past spread. Fan silent in comparison & ps3 lasted about a yr. Rarely did I ever hear the fan go to high and get loud after that. About to begin my third fix on this same ps3. One of the first 80g backwards compatible. other then those notes and that this guide was for a different model ps3 (minor differences) I liked this guide. easy to follow.
Although the battery is described as proprietary, it looks like it is the common CR2032 lithium coin battery that is used in calculators and some computers. I haven't had to replace mine but I suspect under the heatshrink cover is a battery holder which will allow the coin battery to be removed and replaced. Then wrap with electrical tape and reinstall.
I tried this with the heatgun and it ruined my PS3. The CPU and GPU are NOW RUINED!!! It did not work for and made things worst!!! I sent it to a place to get reballed and they said the HEATGUN had overheated my processor and killed them!!! So think twice about doing this. Just because it is already broken, DON'T THINK YOU CAN'T MAKE IT WORST!
Why would you try it with a heat gun, no were is it mentioned to do that

Soulevez le couvercle supérieur par le bord arrière et faites-le pivoter vers l'avant de la PS3.

Enlevez le couvercle supérieur.

Un crochet en plastique se trouve dans un trou dans le coin supérieur arrière droit. Éloignez délicatement le crochet en plastique de l'arrière de la machine en poussant un peu avec une spatule, pour dégager la partie arrière droite du boîtier.
Disconnect the memory card ribbon cable.
The top would hardly budge on the left back corner and was stuck on the right back corner. There is a plastic hook that needs to be unfastened to lift the top off. It is located in a hole on the top back corner on the right hand side, so the corner straight across the on off button. Just gently push the plastic hook a bit front the rear of the machine with a spudger. It gives easily and the top will be free to lift off after that.
I can confirm on CECHH01.
Some more details here as well.
The newer model without SACD support appears to have added that clip to the back right that needs to be pressed to release the top shell.
If equipped with the card reader you can either have to disconnect the ribbon cable or unclip the reader from the top shell after lifting it up to get finger or tool in there to push clip to side and release reader from top shell. Note: if you failed to remove the card reader screws in the previous step these clips can break.
The original 60GB with the CF card reader on the front has a button protruding out. This will make it difficult to remove the top. You need to unscrew the memory card reader so it can come out easily.
Wow, this needs more attention. This isn't explained in any disassembly guide I've seen. You also need to be cognizant of the card reader cable when you're lifting off the lid.
I didn't have trouble during disassembly, but reassembly was tough. I loosened the card reader screws by 1 turn and used a small gauge wire to lasso the button and ran it through the CF hole.

Déconnectez le cable d'alimentation du lecteur Blu-ray de la carte mère.
Pull the cables gently, the plug will come out of the socket. The plug is encased by the socket.
That’s also what I did.
My PS3 is the CECHL01 and I had to remove the PSU to get to the disk drive ribbon cable.
I mistakenly ripped the whole thing out... I do not know where to begin on repairing it.

Not all systems look like this, some have tape instead of the flap.
Every system that I have seen has had the ZIF connector, while some had tape over the connection as well. If your connectors are taped, be sure to remove the tape, then proceed with undoing the ZIF connector.
The version 2 systems baseboard PCB started switching to the new narrow 24 pin ZIF header/ribbon and Blu-Ray drive connection.
You should not attempt to detach the taped ribbon cable from the drive end first as described above for the older wide 60 pin ribbons. You must remove the drive and ribbon as one unit to protect the fragile ZIF sockets.
The slimmer fragile ribbon is taped to the drive housing to afford a more secure ZIF connection. The opposite base connection is slightly under the PSU.

From continued
One should firstly remove the PSU: Disconnect the drive power cable as described above. Unscrew the 5 (3-P1 2-P2) PSU mounting screws. Now leaving the power cables attached, lift the PSU off the power baseboard PCB pins and move over slightly to access the baseboard drive cable end ZIF. Release the ZIF latch and slide the entire (drive and ribbon) strait away from the baseboard ZIF to disconnect.
After the complete drive/ribbon removal, you can carefully remove the restraining tape on the bottom of the drive to release the ribbon ZIF, then remove the 24 pin ribbon from the drive logic PCB.
Install in reverse order making sure to add new tape to secure the ribbon to the drive.
I needed to remove the PSO completely to reach the baseboard drive cable end ZIF. To do that disconnect the power and data (I assume) cables and then pull the unit straight up. To longish prongs are heading straight up into it from the baseboard and it is a bit tight, so gently pull until it's clear.

If you are replacing the Blu-ray drive, you must use the same daughterboard that came with your PlayStation 3. The daughterboard is paired to the motherboard, and the Blu-ray drive will not work with a different board. -------------- I understand however my daughterboard is not on the bottom of the blu-ray drive it must be on the inside. Is there any advice out there on how I go about doing this as I am not sure what I am doing???? If someone could post a link or any tips it would be greatly appreciated.
When I received my new drive there was a sheet that said you could keep the old boards but you have to 'flash' them with the ps3's digital information. Currently trying to figure out how.....

My CECHH01 has its blu-ray drive encased in a shield plate. Only one ribbon cable is visible. (The one we have to disconnect). Mine had some tape over it.
Also, I used a spudger instead of my nails.

Tirez le câble plat du tableau de contrôle vers le haut et hors de sa prise sur la carte mère.
Some PS3 versions do not have a separate control board, since the buttons and LEDS are located on the motherboard (for example, in my PS3 model CECHG04). In this case steps 10, 11 and 13 are not applicable.
This is also true for my CECHH01. ?♂️

Enlevez les huit vis suivantes qui fixent l'ensemble de carte mère au boîtier inférieur.

Sept vis Phillips de 12 mm (ph2)

Une vis Phillips de 30 mm
That 30mm screw is the one lower down under the power cable, not the higher up one with the embossed arrow pointing at it.
Hey guys, that red and orange you are using are not at all identifiable as separate colors to some of us with colorblindness. I had to get my buddy to tell me which one was orange and which was red. In the future, it would be most helpful if you stuck to contrasting colors. Great guide, thanks for making it!
Step 17 helps with the 30 mm upper left screw
For any further vision impaired people trying to follow along, the single 30mm screw is in the top left of the image.
Voting up the comments about the orange v red colors on the images, I'm surprised that such a simple edit has not been done over the past three+ years.

Soulevez l'ensemble de carte mère hors du boîtier inférieur.
My Ps3 was a little different..
The rear backing plate is connected to the fan shroud beneath the unit that is screwed into the bottom of the case.. And these large chrome pieces attatched to the fan were stuck to the tray that the board is on. Came a part pretty rough, guessing the ps3 got so hot it turned the grease into glue lol
If you already suspect you may have a slightly different PS3 model to the one pictured here STOP RIGHT NOW! Do not try and lift the motherboard off the lower casing if it is not coming easily. On mine, the cooling fan and heat sinks have extra screws directly into the lower plastic case and you will not be able to lift the motherboard out until after you have done Step 27. So skip this step, continue through the guide, skip 18-23 (you probably don't have a memory card reader). After unscrewing the 4 screws in Step 27, pull hard to separate the motherboard from the heat sinks (they will be attached with thermal paste like a glue). Only then will you be able to access the screws to separate the large fan and heat sinks from the plastic lower case.
Incidentally I totally smashed mine trying to get the lower case off here at step 15 - I broke the screws off, warped the metal on the heat sink and snapped pieces of plastic. But I continued and did the heat gun stuff and it still actually worked!!

Enlevez la vis cruciforme de 7.7 mm qui fixe la tresse de terre au châssis.
On my PS3 the ground wire(green/yellow) was actually routed under the bolt for the power supply, so I had to remove the power supply before I could removed the AC inlet

-
-
Tirez la prise d'entrée AC hors du boîtier arrière, en prenant bien soin qu'aucun de ses câbles ne reste coincé.
Had to remove 2 screws (the top 2 screws marked in step 25) to get the ground cable out.
Like @asciimo and @deuxphoria, I had to loosen the same two screws to get the ground wire out. When you're putting the PS3 back together and you're doing the steps in reverse, it helps to leave those two screws unscrewed during Step 25 and wait until you put the AC inlet back in Step 18.
You can put the 2 screws back in step 25, just put the AC Outlet before you put in the back plate. (Do Step 18 before step 19 when you are going in reverse)

Tout en éloignant légèrement le cache arrière et la carte mère, utilisez l'extrémité plate d'un spudger pour libérer les clips le long des bords supérieurs et inférieurs du cache arrière.
If going in reverse do this step after step 18, otherwise you will have hard time getting the earth cable routed.

Yeah, on mine (which is the very first revision of the PS3), you have to add a SUPER heavy amount of thermal paste, for it to even make contact. Odd.

i make thermal compounds. just wondering do i need to use a grease that has silver or is an aluminum based grease good to use
Thanks a lot! It is very useful!
I know this is old but what thermal paste should I use today
I recommend artic silver or MX-4 since I heard that it's supposed to last up to 8 years. As long as you don't have to disassemble the console again
My PS3 is 13 years old… Should I replace the thermal paste? (The unit is very clean!)
Principle of thermal paste is to fill the imperfections between the PS3 CPU and the surface of the heat sink.
Dry thermal paste can be okay if your PS3 is not overheating as long as you don’t remove the PS3 CPU cooler.
Sometime, with age, the thermal paste dry and does not make contact enough between the PS3 CPU and the surface of the heat sink. At this moment, the heat is not conduct well, the fan must spin faster to cool down the CPU and this is when you need to replace the thermal paste.
Overheat can also be just caused by a dirty or clogged fan.
When PS3 overheats, it can also shutdown suddenly and need to cool down before to be powered on again.
If you never did this before, you should consider replacing the thermal paste if your PS3 has one of these issues or if you want to improve the thermal conductivity as some thermal paste are more efficient than the one factory installed on the CPU.
Changing the thermal paste is an opportunity to clean the fan.
Low and stable operation temperature help to prevent the YLOD.
