We have allowed so many of our local customers to watch their consoles getting the reballing service and take their consoles home fully working the same day so their reviews can assure everybody else that you are really getting a reballing and not like many other websites that claim to do reballing when they only do what they call a reflow  using a heat gun or any other cheap heating machine. That means if you really want reballing then you are at the only place that grantee will do it for you.

Our PlayStation 3 Reballing service is the world's most famous repair service for PlayStation3 for the last twelve years, We are very proud of being the first ever to offer a real and high quality Reballing service for PlayStation 3 and we have successfully repaired over one hundred thousand PlayStation 3 console using the reballing procedure over the last ten years most of them are still alive and running until this day, No other place in the world has repaired more PlayStation 3 consoles by Reballing or will ever be able to match our repair speed or quality of repair. Click here https://ps3specialist.com/playstation3-gpu-reballing-service/#product-reviews to read our customers reviews AND WATCH OUR PICTURES to know that you are at the right place if you are looking for the real and the top quality Reballing process for your PlayStation 3. We have designed this repair procedure to be a real remanufacturing process of the console's most failing component which is the RSX chip or the graphics chip. By performing the reballing process on the RSX chip, by doing that we erase the years of use the console has been through and bring the console back to its manufacturer condition the day it came out of the factory, we simply breath a new life into it, even if the console overheats or have a very loud fan we have the real solution for that without any need for replacement parts ( overheating repair is included in the price for all backward compatible PlayStation 3 consoles model CECHA01, CECHE01 and CECHB01 so you don't need to add the overheating repair option to your order if your console is one of these three models) just continue reading and you will find out how!!

 

Here are the issues covered by this service :

*The famous YLOD yellow light of death.

* System is flashing red light.

 *System does not display any video or have any other video problem like scrambled video or freezing.

* System starts normally but shuts down after 5 to 15 minutes.

*System is not displaying video through HDMI port.

*PS3 blueray drive controller board Replacement (the original controller board has to be included and never tampered with)

* PS3 is not injecting or ejecting discs.

* The system is not playing games even with the disc spinning but play the regular DVD movies or vise versa.

* system turns on but doesn't start and the screen stays black even if the TV detects the signal

* None of the USB ports is working and you are not able to synchronize your controller.

* System is not reading any discs.

* Hard drive is corrupted.

* Your console is working just fine but every time you turn it off it beeps three times and the red light stay flashing.

* If your console fan is running at high speed causing a loud fan noise that is a sign of overheating, we have a real fix for that so just add the CPU overheating to your order and you will be surprised by how cool and quite we will make your console runs.

* Broken connectors like data cable connector on the motherboard or the power supply connector, yes we replace these plastic connectors on the motherboard if necessary, yes it is very hard to be done but we can do it.

* Replacing any damaged  port like AV port , USB ports and HDMI port

* If the console doesn't produce video through HDMI this service will also fix that even if the HDMI port itself is not damaged.

* We now fix PS3 slim model 2501 and 3001 that shuts down and the power button turns completely off within few seconds of turning it on.

** IN THE WORST CASE WE WILL BE THE ONLY PLACE ON EARTH WHO CAN REPLACE YOUR ENTIRE MOTHERBOARD AND KEEP YOUR FIRMWARE AND ALL YOUR DATA INTACT LIKE NOTHING EVER HAPPENED TO IT BY OUR  FULL MOTHERBOARD TRANSPLANT ( CHECK IT OUT IN OUR OTHER ITEMS )

WHEN EVERYBODY ELSE FAIL WE WILL BE THE ONE WHO FIX IT IF THERE IS NO PHYSICAL DAMAGE TO THE ONBOARD CHIPS BY OUR MOTHERBOARD TRANSPLANT SERVICE ( WITH THAT SERVICE IT DOESN'T MATTER IF THE GRAPHICS CHIP IS DEAD AND ALL THE MOTHERBOARD TRACES ARE DAMAGED WE STILL CAN FIX IT AND KEEP ALL YOUR DATA SAFE.

dsc03165.jpg

 We offer this repair service of your broken PS3 console for any of the problems described before. ( if there is more than one issue let us know so we can give you an estimate for the extra cost ) This service will include the following:

   *Completely detach the system graphics processor from the motherboard (applies to the YLOD and No video output or other video problems including freezing), completely removing the old solder that started to crack and cause bad soldering points, clean the chip and refresh all cold points on it, same procedure will be done to the motherboard, the GPU will be Reballed using leaded solder then it will be reattached in place to the motherboard again. this procedure is very complicated, very professional and we won't be able to perform it unless we are using TOP OF THE LINE MACHINES WITH THE LATEST AVAILABLE TECHNOLOGY AND FULLY COMPUTER CONTORLLED PROCESS FOR MAXIMUM ACCURACY AND BEST RESULTS, with this procedure your console should run for years trouble free and should even outlast a brand new console ( our success rate is over 99% and we have repaired more than 100000 PS3  console using this technique within the last ten years ( people who applied any flux to their motherboards before or tried the heat gun fix or other repair services on eBay or local shops should not expect the same rate of success, some of these unprofessional repairs will totally kill your system specially if they used flux or unnecessarily heat on many chips on the board instead of isolating the problem in a single chip and try to fix it the right way).Same reballing procedure will be applied to any particular chip that needs it to fix other problems like HDMI controller chip or firmware chip of the controller board, some controller boards don't have a firmware chip, we still can replace them.

*Applying a new layer of a special kind of high density thermal compound that meets the manufacturer specifications to keep your system running cool and prevent overheating.

    *Fully clean the system from dust and clear all blocked ventilation holes to reduce system temperature and prevent future overheating.

*Extracting any disc that got trapped inside your system and you could not eject it out (please if there is a disc inside your system don't try to take the system apart to get it out, I will get it out for you and send it back with your system , that will help reserving your disc and your drive from getting any damage to its mechanical mechanism).

Repair parts costs if needed will be extra and you will receive a list of the needed parts if any and their costs, you will have the choice to buy and send them or let me buy them for you after your approval of their costs.

For people who suggest that YLOD is caused by a bad power supply , that is very rare , in over 100000 console we repaired we only replaced the power supply less than 30 times, other repair shops will use that to overcharge people, we don't.

*99% of the time your console can be repaired without any parts but if your console is one of the other 1% so you will be required to pay for the needed parts and the cost will depend your console's model but you will not pay any extra charge for installing any spare parts, in very rare condition the system would have a bad graphics chip which can be replaced and the part cost will be extra.

The system will be repaired ,fully tested and shipped back within seven days - excluding holidays and weekends and when local temperature goes above 100 degrees and in this condition reballing the PS3 will put the motherboard in great risk so we would have to postpone any PS3 repair due to unusual circumstances to protect our customers consoles - of receiving it unless it needs replacing parts and after your approval of the repair it can take up to 10 days to be repaired and shipped back.

After more than ten years in the field of game systems repairs and upgrades there is no system that cannot be repaired unless it is electronically dead system which will require replacing the system's main board, we provide up to two years warranty on our PS3 reballing repair service when you choose that option - BECAUSE EXPERIENCE COMBINED BY TOP OF THE LINE TECHNOLOGY MAKES THE DIFFERENCE - and if for any reason your system can not be repaired you will receive a full refund of your purchase less return shipping cost since we don't charge for any system check up but don't depend on that because we will repair your system, after first repair the buyer can only qualify for warranty repair and can not ask for a refund.

* Consoles with multiple issues will receive an estimate for the total cost of repair and the repair will be performed only if you agree to pay the extra cost.

** Reballing is a very advanced procedure and require vey highly skilled hands and very advanced machines so if your console has been through a similar repair attempts before we can not grantee the result of the repair or if the graphics chip still alive.

** Warranty doesn't cover any shipping costs which means that if for any reason your system gets any problem during warranty period we will repair it for free but you will pay shipping costs both ways ** 

** If your console has a loud fan or display a message telling you that the console is overheating just add the overheating option to your order - All Backward compatible PS3 consoles will have that service included in the repair price - replacing the fan, making holes in the outer case, using an external fan, using the console next to a very cold AC will not fix this issue, its an internal issue in the chips and has to be repaired correctly. in some cases specially if the console is very dusty inside the dust will get into the bearings of the fan and it becomes very noisy even if it runs at low speed and in this case the fan will be replaced at an extra cost.

The last three pictures of this listing show how we fix the overheating problem on a PS3 and it will cost an extra $40 to be done.

Your system will be shipped back using FedEx ground or home delivery and the shipping cost will cover only the return shipping cost so you still have to pay to ship your system to us.

Please use the information and instructions here https://ps3specialist.com/shipping-returns/  to send your console in once you make your purchase.

The pictures that you see are real pictures of our advanced machines and our reballing process, you will not find anywhere else, one picture worth a thousand  word.

 

Rush service fees if chosen is meant to give your Device a priority over others to be worked on but because in repair business there is no grantee for the repair result this fees is not refundable if the device is not repairable regardless of the reason.

IF YOUR CONSOLE'S MOTHERBOARD HAS A LIQUID DAMAGE, DOESN'T POWER ON AT ALL, SOMEONE TRIED TO REMOVE THE GRAPHICS CHIP AND ENDED UP DAMAGING THE TRACES ON THE MOTHERBOARD , THE MOTHERBOARD IS RUSTED OR SOMEONE APPLIED FLUX ALL OVER THE BOARD AND UNDER EVERY CHIP AND YOU HAVE VERY IMPORTANT DATA ON THE HARD DRIVE THAT YOU DON'T WANT TO LOOSE , WE HAVE GOOD NEWS FOR YOU, WE STILL WITH ALL THESE DAMAGES CAN FIX YOUR CONSOLE AND SAVE YOUR DATA, JUST CHECK OUR PS3 MOTHERBOARD TRANSPLANT SERVICE , ITS ONE OF THE SERVICES WE ARE THE ONLY PLACE ON EARTH TO OFFER IT AND ITS OUR PROVE THAT WE DO A REAL REBALLING AND THAT NO BODY ELSE IS AS CAPABLE, KNOWLEDGABLE OR SKILLFUL AS WE ARE.

 

**ORDERS FOR THIS SERVICE WILL BE PROCESSED ON THE FIRST COME FIRST SERVE BASIS UNLESS RUSH ONE DAY SERVICE IS ADDED**

Due to the Corona Virus Pandemic that caused delay in shipments from China where most of our repair supplies come we have suffered shortage in  some major supplies related to this service that caused some delay in processing orders placed between march and July , we have received a big supplies order lately and we have most of the late orders done and shipped and we are doing the best we can to have all PS3 orders back on track before the end of third week in August so all orders will be processed within 5-7 days as usual . We don't expect any shortage in supplies to ever happen again.

 

Due to the Corona Virus pandemic and the social distancing requirements we are currently not accepting in person repairs .

Shipping cost covers only the return shipping

Very lately we started to hear about a new fix for PS3 issues by replacing the NEC/TOKENS by Tantalum capacitors !! please read our Blug post about that at the following link Blog

It's Alive!!
Written by ANTONIO DAVIS on 24th May 2020

I found these guys after doing weeks of research on how to fix my PS3. My system had no video and had an overheating problem. After multiple attempts to fix it myself with no success I sent it in. 2 weeks later (honestly wasn't expecting it to get that quick), I got it back AND MY SYSTEM WORKS AGAIN!! I am so grateful for the service you provided me because I would have never been able to play any of my PS3 games again if it wasn't for you guys. The only negative I have is the lack of communication. The only thing I had a problem with was that I was never notified if my system was received. But in the end still 5 stars.

PS3 Reballing

Sent of my PS3 to get fixed after sitting in my closet for years. Tried sending it off to another company to get fixed, another reballing service, but they weren't able to plus erased my upgraded HDD thinking thats what it was. Took a month to get the PS3 back from Khaled but when I did the system worked perfectly and seems to run not as loud too, was able to put in my original HDD at still had some of my game saves which I was really happy about. Just wish the communication was a little bit better but pleased so far with the work, hope it lasts. Thanks again

PS3 YLOD - Saved!
Written by Ryan on 27th Sep 2019

Sent my PS3 in for repairs - no one else could fix it...needed to save the data on the HDD but with the YLOD it seemed like my luck was out. I had read stories and really was hesitant but with no where else to turn I went ahead and gave it a chance - really glad I did! PS3 Specialist not only repaired it but got it turned around super fast! Hopefully will not have this problem again but I know I can trust PS3 Specialist to save my console. Highly Recommended!

I had the reball and the CPU overheating repair performed on my 80gb PS3, which had the YLOD for 6 years. When it came back to me, it worked just as it should, and the CPU fan was quieter than it was when it was new! Thanks for getting me back up and running!

PS3 Repair Experience
Written by Brian on 26th Jun 2019

I had the pleasure of meeting Khaled in person for my PS3 repair. Not only did he bring my PS3 back to life, but he was also a very polite, extremely skilled technician. He was able to diagnose and identify faulty components quickly, and my CECHA01 PS3 now runs very quietly. Seeing him work in person was impressive -- the rebelling process is very skill-intensive but he has it down. He also uses premium solder and thermal paste. I recommend Khaled to people who want their PS3's repaired. :)

PS3 Repair
Written by Alfred H on 9th Apr 2019

After being told that my Fat PS3 was "dead" and no good several years ago, I decided to reach out to the kind folks at PS3 Specialist for some help. Man, all I can say is that I wish I knew of them sooner because they resurrected my PS3 back to glorious life. It runs quieter than when it was brand new, the Emotion chip was was replaced and the thermal paste and soldering is better than factory. PS3 Specialist provided me the most professional, honest and amazing experience. I highly urge anyone who has any problems with their modern game consoles or MacBook Pros to have the team here take a look at it. They made me a lifetime friend and customer out of me. Thank you for all the work and patience you provided me when I brought in my PS3.

Almost a year and the repairs are still good
Written by David on 5th Jan 2019

I don't normally leave reviews, but I feel I owe it to PS3 Specialist to write a short review on their services and to help any potential customers. First of all, I had a Fat 32GB, 4 usb port, PS3 that had the red light of death. I had it repaired at a local shop so I could get the copy of my game out (Bio Shock 2) and after that it sat in my closet for years. In that time I researched place after place. I wanted to try to get this thing working again and thought buying another one would just bring back to this place again. I didn't mention this earlier, but this is my 3rd PS3 of the same model and type. As I looked up reballing services some of the best looking places either stopped doing this type of repair, only did reflow (which is very temporary... more so than a reball) or they seemed very sketchy. Some people on Craig's list and Ebay offered services and had reviews to back them up, but I wasn't ready to go there yet. PS3 Specialist popped up a few times during my search and like any cautious shopper and as a person who makes a few thousand under the poverty line, I was worried. The website seems a bit dated, but it also felt sincere. There's also a physical shop so that was a bonus... not that I live close, but there were reviews discussing the physical location. The prices were pretty decent too so I thought, might as well just risk it. I've seen some bad reviews and as someone who has worked in many eatery's I know that the type of person to post reviews is usually the dissatisfied person so don't let a few bad reviews scare you off if you are interested in this service. I purchased the PS3 re-balling and CPU overheating repair. Everything looks great. The machine is much more quite than it was. It's worked perfectly and Khaled (I'm guessing the owner) kept in contact the entire time and even sent me updates. We talked a bit before too, just to make sure I was getting the right repair service. I don't recall, but I think the diagnostic was free and if it was a different issue, he'd reach out to talk to me about other options, but that didn't happen. I definitely have noticed some positive performances and I feel like I got exactly what I was looking for. The wait was a little long, I don't recall how long it took to get my Ps3 back --maybe a couple weeks-- nothing unrealistic. I haven't been able to really put in a huge chunk of time to play this thing, but I'll come back maybe in a full year to update this. So far the service here was great! I would both recommend this and come back for repairs.

Excellent Work

10/10 Absolutely amazing service
Written by Joel Clark on 21st Feb 2018

I was fortunate enough to be able to meet Khaled in person and have him perform the repair right in front of me. It was an incredible experience. Khaled is extremely friendly, professional, and knowledgable. He explained every part of the process. Before I took my PS3 into him, the fan was running very, very loud from the moment I would start up a game. He reballed the GPU, replaced the thermal paste and thermal adhesive on the CPU and GPU, and he even noticed that my power supply wasn't the right one for my model (I bought it refurbished from GameStop so I'm guessing they put the wrong one in), so he replaced that as well. He let me try it out for a good half hour and the fan never got louder than a whisper. Now that I've been playing it at home that has stayed the same. I can barely ever hear the fan unless the room goes absolutely silent, and even then, I can still barely hear it. It's like the console is brand new right out of the factory. I highly recommend having Khaled fix your PS3, and if you are able to have it done in person it is 100% worth the rush charge. This is the only repair in the world you can get of this kind. If you feel skeptical or have any questions please feel free to email me: joelclark1991@hotmail.com. I cannot recommend this service enough. Thank you Khaled for making my PS3 run perfect again!

CECHB01 20GB PS3 Reball + Quiet fan CPU repair
Written by Alex on 15th Feb 2018

I was a little skeptical about sending in my launch model 20GB PS3 to have it repaired by Kalied (PS3 Specialist). I was reading some reviews on the internet, and ebay about this service provider, and I because a little nervous. But, it seemed the positive reviews outweighed the negative. There is one complaint I did have, and that is I think the communication, and customer service side of the experience could be improved. But, if you fallow all the instructions, include your receipt in your package, and properly pack your PS3, and have a little patience, you won't have any problems with getting your PS3 back. However, he did a really good job on the repair with minimal cosmetic damage to the console. I bought the reballing, and cpu fan mod service, I shipped it to him on December 26th, 2017, and received my console fixed to my door on January 17th, 2018. So, it took about 3 weeks, which is pretty good considering it was a day after Christmas! 4/5 stars for repair service! -1 star for lack of communication.

1# site for your original PS3!
Written by Marquis Barbee on 24th Jan 2018

I bought my ps3 60GB from ebay with a winning bid of 88$, It was advertised as an refurbished console but after an hour of gameplay, the console would get louder and the console would start beeping with the LED light blinking red telling me to turn off the system to let it cool down.I couldn't deal with this so I started searching on the web for repair centers that can fix this problem then I came across this website. I thought i would give this guy a try even though I read the negative reviews about his repair service on google but i decided to trust his reviews on his site and his reviews on ebay since he had alot of positive reviews on those sites. I sent my console off to him on Dec. 23 2017. He recieved it Dec. 28 2017. I got back it Jan. 11. I could've gotten it back faster but he was really packed from orders from the holidays. Turned it on, put game in and waited for an 2 hours to see if it would overheat......Nope works perfectly! No more Red blinking Light and the fan is alot more quieter than it was before i sent it off. I would recommend this guy to get your ps3 working again! I have another dead 60GB i want to get fixed soon so I'm definitely using this service again! Ignore those old negative reviews you'll come across, this guy is the real deal!

PS3 Reballing
Written by Tim K on 6th Nov 2017

Like so many other PS3 owners who find it unacceptable to buy a newer PS3 to replace our original Fat model, getting it repaired is the only option. Luckily, for us there is ps3specialist. I want to thank Khaled for the fantastic job he did repairing my PS3 Fat model. Not only is the workmanship top notch but completed in an expedited fashion. Khaled will also inform you of any other problems that he finds as well. Awesome customer service you just don't see anymore. Finally, on top of that he shipped the PS3 back to my APO AE address in Germany. Another service so many vendors don't provide. I can't thank you enough! Tim

A miracle worker, all launch PS3s should be patched up here
Written by Matt on 2nd Nov 2017

I have sent not one, but 2 launch backward compatible ps3s here. I have tried other local options that only offer reflow which is a very temporary solution. But here, what happens to the machine is nothing short of amazing. Every problem from the loud fan to the overheating has been solved. Even better, firmware downgrade was also an option. The craftsmanship in the work is well worth the cost and the time it took to fix was very reasonable.

MY PS3 LIVES AGAIN!!
Written by Darnell Woods on 22nd Sep 2017

Just like any gamer who wants to preserve their TRUE definitive PS3 (cecha01) I took it upon myself to do some open "thermal paste" surgery and I messed up my off/on censer board. Not only that, I even uprooted the censer connector on my motherboard like a idiot. So I took it downtown to a Videogame/Repair store to see if they could fix. They held it for more than 3 weeks. NOPE, they said, and they suggested that I should give up and just by a new Ps3. I refused to just throw it away. Months later, I spotted this service on Ebay accidentally, I was just browsing and read about the service it gives and I looked at the pictures of opened Ps3 motherboards, with a strange machine that appears to stamp CPU/GPU chips on motherboards, also read something about Reballing procedure that is required for BGA packages repair. I was like Whaaa? So i just emailed Mr. Khaled and described my problem with my PS3. Told him I messed up my console after applying Thermal Paste & putting to together, I broke the off/on & eject censer. Khaled said, "No problem send it here. We'll fix it" I ordered the $89 service plus Cpu over-heat repair because, what the hell, my PS3 over 9yrs old. It arrived today 09/22 and I powered it on. AND YESSSS!!! Just as it was before opened and ruined it. Don't know what they did, or how they fixed the "ribbon cable connector' I broke off the motherboard. They made me a believer. Reballing Genius LLC is the TRUTH!! I recommend this service to all gamers who want to preserve thier definitive PS3's

PS3 GPU Reballing Service & CPU Overheating Repair
Written by Derrick Wessel on 15th Sep 2017

This guy really is the Reballing Genius. My ps3 first stopped working due to the fan going out. I replaced it myself only to find that it did not fix the problem. So I sent it off to a so called "reputable repair shop" only to get it back (after they said it was fixed) and find that it now suffered from RLOD. The next repair shop I took it to said they couldn't fix it and the only chance to get it to work again is to reball the system; a service they did not provide. I finally found the ps3specialist and he put me at ease. Said no matter what the problem was he could fix it.... and that he did! In less than 48 hours after sending him the system he had it up and running, with no loss in memory! He was very helpful, kind and understanding of the issue. I will definitely use him in the future and recommend him to all that have any issues with their gaming consoles. Thanks again Reballing Genius!

PS3 Reball Service Review
Written by Paul on 1st Aug 2017

I had the reball done in person, which allowed me to watch my PS3 get worked on. Khaled is very knowledgeable, and explained every step of the process to me. My PS3 slim is now running a lot quieter. Definitely recommend getting the repair done in person. I think it's worth the "rush service" fee.

PS3 Reballing & Overheating Service
Written by Matthew Becker on 8th Apr 2017

I purchased the one day service and was fortunate enough to meet Khaled in person. I watched him perform the PS3 reballing service & overheating service while he talked me through it. Khaled was professional and courteous. He showed me step-by-step what he was doing and why he was doing it. The machines in the pictures on this website are real and are used in the process. Khaled knows exactly what he is doing and your best chance at having your PS3 fixed right. The level of service and quality you receive is second to none. I was skeptical at first but after having been there and witness everything this service is legit. Email me if you have any questions: mister.matt.becker@gmail.com Thanks Khaled.

The only place you should take your PS3
Written by Ernesto on 27th Mar 2017

Khaled is the real deal! I purchased his reballing servicer along with the CPU cooling solution. I purchased the rush service and actually took it to his place personally and watched him work on my PS3. It was very obvious that he has a very extensive background in all types of computer hardware repair. I got a chance to pick his brain through the process, and learned how whenever most other people reflow, they end up doing more damage than good to the system. His reballing service is on a professional level that I have never seen. He gets to the actual problem of cleaning the copper oxide build-up (rust) and poor soldering from the GPU. I saw the chips after and they were super clean, as if brand new! When he says he will have your PS3 working like new, that is not marketing. He literally will because he actually restores it to how it would have come out of the factory. Please do not make the mistake I made by taking it to somebody else to get it reflowed. It had more issues after I got it back from reflowed, because it is haphazard process by most repair shops and makes things worse in the long run. Shops that are honest will often send a PS3 to him to perform the reballing process (no joke). The older models of PS3 are really valuable, and you will do yourself a great disservice if you do not repair it in the fashion that you will get from here. If you live close to Rancho Cucamonga, and can afford to do the express service and watch him in action, I HIGHLY RECOMMENED IT. His service is really on a whole other level that is hard to believe until you actually experience it first-hand.

THE ONLY RECOMMENDATION
Written by Joman Boteros on 6th Dec 2016

Don't even bother with local repair stores/techies, this guy is the real deal. It's been 2 months since I had my (8+ years old MGS4 bundle) PS3 reballed with ps3specialist and it's working as if I just bought it 2 days ago. My PS3 had a green light , no display issue, which usually indicated a GPU problem. I had it shipped from BC, Canada down to California. Turns out the GPU was damaged/dead. ps3specialist let me know that there were additional charges for a brand new GPU since the initial reball attempt did not have positive results. I agreed and ps3specialist fixed up my PS3 and now I'm backing to clearing up my backlog of PS3 games.

Professional Service
Written by Evans on 29th Nov 2016

I had YLOD on my PS3 80GB backwards compatible. Since I lived nearby, I did the rush service and personally took my PS3 to Khaled service center. The service was so fast. I personally witnessed him work to reball the GPU. Along the way I asked him questions about the repair process and I could tell he was an expert. All the steps in the reball process is professionally done. The final result was a PS3 console like new straight from the manufacturing line except better because extra care was taken in the repair to ensure the GPU was soldered carefully. Fair price for good service.

It was a fascinating process
Written by Waldyr on 17th Nov 2016

When I got my YLOD I called around and all the places that "repaired it" would only do the reflow method using the heat gun. I was even told that it could last a week, a day few months. So I needed a real solution, which had to be reballing. Luckily I live in SoCal, so I was able to take it there myself, and with the rush service, he fixed it right in front of me. I was expecting to hand him the Playstation and sit on a couch while it was being repaired. I was invited up to the work area, and he walked me through the entire process. He explained that the PS3 I had had been previously reballed, just not by him, and showed me the results of using poor quality materials and cleaned up the mess. at every step, either the board of the chip looked brand new. I can attest that he does do true reballing, (i even saw the solder balls). I told him that the experience of seeing him fix it was worth the rush fee even more than walking out with the console on the same day. I was told if it stops working within a year to simply ship it back to him. Since my system has actually been repaired, I can use it as much as I want. I can't recommend it enough. It was worth the price to bring my Backwards compatible ps3 back to life.

I've had both my launch consoles reballed, one was downgraded as well. Neither actually had a problem as I decided to preemptively take action.

PS3 repair
Written by Les Boggan on 4th Jul 2016

My launch day 60GB PS3 bit the dust over 9 years after I bought it. I was watching a video when it shut down suddenly. I tried restarting it but every attempt failed with a blinking red light. That's when I Google searches some answers and figured due to age the thermal paste probably broke down and the system was getting too hot causing overheating. My guess may be right or wrong but I've taken my unit apart a few times to fix minor issues and clean out dust but fixing that was beyond my ability. So I sent it off for repair. It arrived on a Wednesday and was shipped back on a Friday. The unit arrived in proper working order and was even quieter than when it left. I'm assuming the rework is keeping it as cool as when it was new. Definitely glad I chose this service.

Success

I tried a 'fixit' place but when they couldn't 'fix' my PS3 I sent it here to get it repaired. Fast turn around and they obviously know what they are doing. First thing I did when I got it back was to backup my hard drive. Thanks Khaled!

Brought my PS3 back to life.
Written by David M on 23rd May 2016

Had my backwards-compatible Playstation 3 succumb to the dreaded "Yellow Light of Death," so I checked around for a proper repair. After reading reviews for several services, I felt that ps3specialist was probably the best choice, especially after calling Khaled, and asking him a few questions. I mailed my stricken PS3 to him on a Friday, and he mailed it back to me a couple of business days afterwards. Since we are both in California, shipping both ways was really quick. But does the system work? Yes! Hopefully the service will still be available in the future if it ever fails again. I am glad that I sent it out to be repaired. The price for everything isn't cheap (shipping both ways, packaging, the repair service,) but it is worth it to me to have one system that plays Playstation 1, 2, and 3 games.

Back from the dead
Written by Ryan on 21st May 2016

Was a little skeptical sending to someone not official, but I didn't have much to lose seeing my console had YLOD and was unusable. I wanted to keep my save data and keep using my backwards compatible PS3 so I gave it a shot and am pleased so far with the results. I was able to turn back on the system, eject the game that got stuck in it, make a full backup which took 14 hours and had me worried to keep it on that long but it managed to handle it just fine, been watching shows through Netflix, Crunchyroll, and my media server just fine for hours, and does fine playing through games with no issues. Couldn't be happier to have my PS3 back in good working condition again.

Great works better, and is more quiet than before!
Written by Alec on 8th May 2016

First of all I have two ps3 fat units. One that works and one that doesn't. I had got burned by Gophermods on sending the ps3 that didn't work (Which it did when I sent it to them) for cooling mods, to which they broke. The one that works was having the infamous stretchy graphics problem (Either bad solder joints balls or bad GPU) and was loud. So I needed to send it out. With a bad experience in mind.... I was reluctant to send my only working unit to ps3 specialist. I didn't know where to go to fix and I didn't feel comfortable tearing apart my ps3 like I did my 360 because the 360 was easy to tear down. So I sent it out to ps3 Specialist. I was glad I did it runs way more silent than before, and doesn't overheat when I do things like visit the PS store. It would get so loud you could hear it from 20 feet away. Now nope... no loud fan. And so far no more stretchy graphics (So far...) The service was excellent and the communication was great. I asked a few questions though annoying questions I'm glad they put up with me. :) So should you send your ps3 for a reball? Well if you had the problems I had ya you should. When I get more money I'm gonna send my broken one see if they can fix it (Turns on no sound or video). So definitely go with this you can't go wrong.

Great Service and Communication
Written by William Robertson on 4th Apr 2016

My systems perform better than ever. Not the cheapest service but definitely the most quality work and knowledgeable repair. I have sent three systems, one of which was not repairable without a GPU and that was extra expense. The other two are working flawlessly and Im happy to have my backwards compatible PS3s back in service. I used another repair service before and left one system on overnight and it RLOD. No problems with these so far, 3 months of average use and they seem great. Wish he was on the east coast :) -- William

Resurrected
Written by Samy on 31st Mar 2016

I paid for the reballing service with rush service. I am blown away at how effective this procedure works. The system was an original CECHA01 backwards compatible model. The system always ran hot and had various problems. Picture worked at times, loading times were bad, ps2 and ps1 games worked at times and it would turn off from over heating. Before sending my system i opened my system up on numerous occasions and would apply a new coat of thermal paste. This went on for months until eventually it just stopped working. After the reballing service i have not experienced any problems what so ever. The system is functioning better than on the first day of purchase. I highly recommend this company for their reballing service because it is truly effective. On top of all this my system was fixed the day they received it and it was returned to me in less than 3 days.

My PS3 was at the yellow light of death stage, as good as dead. This dude, the technomancer, worked his magic and gave it life again.

Awesome Service
Written by Dan on 25th Feb 2016

Had my Fat 80GB original (backwords compatible) PS3 back about 3 weeks: I came into this a little bit leery because it is a small business across the country from me and doesn't have the "safety net" of a big company, but he did an awesome job repairing it and sent it back really quickly! I tracked my shipment along the way and most of my wait was the shipping process itself. My PS3 is running great and quieter than it has been in years (and I didn't pay any extra, just reballing service + shipping). I have heard others who sent their unit to Sony/other places get different units back, but mine was the exact same machine (case and Serial No. matched, with my hard drive unaffected). Best of all, he offers a 1 year warranty, which is comforting when I know that it could easily happen again, and it also seems like a good motivator for him to do a great job the first time. The only minuscule criticism that I can think of is that he didn't respond to my email when I sent my shipping number and asked if he did indeed receive it, but this honestly didn't matter, because he worked on it right away and sent it back a couple days later. Since this is "PS3 specialist" not "communications specialist", I'm totally satisfied with his methods, and would prefer he continue to focus on the repair job. 6 out of 5 Stars

COULD NOT BE HAPPIER!
Written by undefined on 17th Feb 2016

I realize that there are lot of people claiming lots of different things when your PS3 gets YLOD. I have a 60GB PS3 where this happened and I seriously considered junking it and buying a new PS3. I mean, the thing is old, but after reading numerous reviews and doing some research, I ended up here. This is the real deal. PS3 was fixed in a couple of weeks and returned to me. It works perfectly now. If you have any concerns about doing this, don't. If your PS3 is YLOD and it's likely from the solder, send it here. You won't be disappointed.

Give your dead PS3 new life!
Written by Ken on 25th Jan 2016

My launch day 60Gb PS3 got the YLOD several months ago and considered re-flowing it myself but the cost to purchase all the tools and machines that PS3SPECIALIST uses would've made it cost prohibitive, not to mention the fact that I didn't have near the experience with re-flowing chips that he does. It made the decision easy to make to let PS3SPECIALIST re-ball my console, couldn't be happier with the results, even opted to install a 1Tb SSHD in my once again working PS3. Can't recommend his services enough.

Was skeptical but it's the real deal! Best service around!

When my original 60gb backwards compatible ps3 stopped working, I thought there was nothing i could do but ger a new system and lose all of my saves and content. but PS3SPECIALIST fixed it! after a few months of use now its still going strong. overall took about a month from the day i sent the system out to when i got it back for anyone curious. this is the best quality work for ps3 repair you can get, and worth every penny in my opinion.

Deliverance from YLOD on my PS3 was accomplished, and I believe it was fixed correctly. Turnaround time at the destination was stellar, but shipping to and from Cali took a while (as expected). I'm glad I found PS3 specialist, nice to have the PS3 back again.

PS3 worked great after reball, and for half the price of competitors
Written by Fred on 5th Dec 2015

My PS3 was the typical yellow light and eventually the red light of death. This indicates the PS3 has an issue with the GPU and or CPU, usually both. I reflowed (that means heat the board so I remelted the solder) in the processors and that worked for a while but after 6 months it died again. I knew it needed something more in depth (a reball) but I dodn't want to pay over $200 to fix it like other repair shops who also have questionable practices. My wife found these guys on some gaming forums who all vouched for the site's work quality and since word of mouth is the best endorsement we looked it up. PS3 Specialist had great reviews and was less than half the cost of other repair shops, so one day I bit the bullet and bought the repair ticket. I sent it in, got it back a week and a half later. The packing could have been a bit tighter on the return trip but it arrived safely. The PS3 booted up perfectly and worked great right away. They did not update the OS as promised (I have CFW) and even added a couple missing screws to it. Overall, very happy and nice job guys...Your next service should be to find a way to make the PS3 fan quieter!

Ps3 Complete Restoration CPU And GPU Reballed
Written by Shehryar Raza on 29th Oct 2015

My Story And Brief Back Ground I am a PlayStation owner since 2004 so i have a lot of games (around 400) PlayStation 2, 3 and 4 combined games. Recently my ps3 the launch model Pal 60 GB model which i upgraded to 200 GB had the serious problem of YLOD issue. Before getting this problem I was well aware of the following facts regarding this generation of consoles. • PS3 THE YLOD issue due to CPU or GPU detachment from the motherboard due to weak soldering points. • XBOX 360 with the RLOD issue. So coming to the matter at hand I was using the respective system from 2006 to 2015 with no problems I had once did the complete thermal paste replacement and fan cleaning service in 2011 through a local shop in UAE where I live and I also upgraded the system with the 19 blade fan. Besides that I did not do any sort of modification to the system. Secondly since the system was being used normally since 2006 I had collected a huge amount of data inside it almost 5000 hours of data (save data and game Data utility) and a lot of pictures were also saved inside it because our family was using the system as a media hub as well. The Role of Ps3 Specialist And (Mr Khalid’s Technical Expertise) My ps3 repair story starts here .The part of the world in which I live in is quite glamorous and fast passed world .In this part of the world the concept for most people is use and dispose and same rule implies on gaming. After getting the YLOD I tried to find a local repair shop that could permanently fix this issue. On the flip side of the coin by speaking with the majority of the people who were having game console repair shops this is what they had to say. • Buy another system its just 700-800 AED/- between (190-200 USD) • We could try to fix it but then u will only use the system for 1-to 1 .5 hour and our service will have no warranty. Secondly once you get the YLOD you will get it again. • Only one shop knew the problem and he said the best I can do is just reflow it because we do not have the equipment’s and neither the expertise to completely re-ball the Ps3 CPU and GPU. After getting all these responses I was convinced to the harsh reality that this system could not be fixed within UAE as the local market didn’t had the technical expertise in repairing such a complex equipment .So keeping this perspective in mind I started researching online for the complete solution to the problem at hand . After about 1 week of endless research I was just browsing an eBay listing of another ps3 60GB (I was planning on buying a backup system) I came along a listing Of Mr Khalids refurbished PS3 with CPU and GPU re-balled. On the first glance I just said it’s a refurbished system it will also fail again but just out of curiosity I scrolled down and started reading all the detailed description of the pain staking procedure which the system had gone through to be fixed and all the details regarding the refurbishment process .After careful reading of the entire page I was 100% convinced that the solution which I was looking for was this I immediately goggled the PS3 specialist and it led me to the respective website. I immediately contacted Mr Khalid and started discussing regarding my ps3 issue .After a few days of discussion (Due to time difference it took some days). I immediately made an account on the website and placed my order respectively. Soon after that I shipped my system via FEDEX to USA as per shipping details. In the meantime Mr Khalid was always supportive in clearing all sorts of doubts and he was the only person who knew the technicalities associated with these respective consoles. As soon as Mr Khalid received my system he did the following things. • Regular updates regarding receiving the system and repair procedures. • Complete Clarification of doubts. • Providing technical sound expertise and advice. • After completing the repair procedure he gave me a prompt and up to date update on the job completion status of my ps3 repair. • He also gave an excellent advice regarding shipping through USPS/FEDEX combined service which I truly appreciate on his end (Best Shipping Service to get items from US to other countries with up to mark tracking). Net Extract • Best Service to restore ps3 • Due to advanced tools and machines used by the company failure rate is reduced or mitigated to a great extent. • Very honest and humble people to deal with (Especially Mr Khalid). • A quality oriented service which I would always recommend. • Was I hesitant on sending my system from one part of the world to another (yes But it was Mr Khalid’s confidence and expert opinion which motivated and encouraged me to take the bold step and I am happy I did it ). • The system after the repair works far better as compared to a new system due to better cooling and stronger soldering. • Is it worth the money (100% yes because it satisfies all the aspects). Final words • If you want your ps3 system to last for a longer period of time than look no further than this. Notes If anybody in the Middle East region or GCC countries want to contact me regarding the procedures of sending their systems for repairs to ps3 specalist. I am willing to support them and help them .They can contact me via my Email address sherry_aquarius@yahoo.com

Khaled is the REAL MVP: Best PS3 Repair On the Web
Written by Bryan D on 25th Aug 2015

If you have a 60gb PS3, it's probably YLOD'd on you once or twice. And if you're like me, you'd rather keep the 60GB alive instead of getting a new "slim" PS3 that can't play PS2 games. I've had YLOD maybe 3 or 4 times, and have had my PS3 repaired by pretty much all the so called "greats" on the Internet. Endless Electronics, PS3RepairShop, FixMyPlaystation, etc. Don't bother with those guys, Khaled is the only person you should trust handling your PS3 if you want a true, real reball. After having my PS3 YLOD again after the previously mentioned places apparently "fixed" my PS3, I was pretty skeptical of ANYONE who would call themselves a "PS3 Specialist." So I called the number with a ton of questions to be sure I knew what I'd be buying. Khaled picked up, and was very polite, answered every single question I had, told me step by step what needed to be done given my PS3's symptoms (PS3 getting extremely hot, fan kicking in, and console shutting off immediately, sound familiar?). He even went so far as to diagnose what the other repair shops had done and explained why it didn't work as well as they said it would. Seemed to good to be true, so I decided to test my luck and ship it to him, and I couldn't be happier that I did. Turnaround time was phenomenal; I received my PS3 back within a business week. And when I finally got it back, there was no arbitrary "break-in" period like there was for all my other repairs: my PS3 was ready to go right when I plugged it in, no playing for 1-2 hours for 30 hours. PS3 was quieter than I had EVER heard it before, all ports and drives were working good as new, and heck he even did a pretty nice job buffing and shining the console. All for around $120, plus shipping. I've been playing it for a few weeks to make sure everything's A-ok, and I couldn't be happier. If you have a 60gb PS3, and want it to last as long as possible, look no further. As someone whose been burned by other repair shops, I can't recommend Khaled's repair enough. Best PS3 Repairman on the Internet, hands down.

Good repair

System was taken care of and works upon return. Just wish there were updates to make sure system was received by them and updates on status were given. Otherwise was a great job.

I have been looking for a place to repair my PS3. I had 2 reflows before but that wasn't cutting it anymore and the unit had been dead for almost 2 years. After a few nights of research of places, came across this one, read a lot of reviews both on the site and ebay. Contacted him said what my problem was and he said no problem. sent the unit in, got it back a few days later and had many hours put on it with no problems at all !!! I highly recommend this shop!

Fast, Quality Service

My Original 60 PS3 YLOD and I took it to be reflowed. Within a month it died again. I saw other boards had recommended PS3Specialist for a reball and no one ever had any issues. Shipped it out to Khaled, and he had it fixed and shipped out the same day he received it, while keeping in contact with updates. Total turn around time including shipping, 3 days. And now works perfectly. Highly recommend.

Awesome service

My phat PS3 had the dreaded YLOD and a malfunctioning bluray drive - both of which were fixed very quickly. Khaled kept in contact with the repairs and I got my PS3 back in less than a week, everything has been working great! Thanks Khaled - your service saved my PS3!

My system runs quieter, smoother and hasn't locked up once since I got it back. The service was super fast too - it was shipped back to me the same day it was received.

My PS3 60G had been "reflowed" a few times in 4 years. The tech that did the work recommend I "reball" it but couldn't give me a place that did it. All the searches I did found me places on the East Coast until I found PS3SPECIALIST. He was local to me So. Cal. and allowed me to drop off/pick up. I met Khaled at his home. He's very personable and friendly. Answered every question I had. I picked up my PS3 the next day. And has been working since. The fan doesn't come on as much as it did and it (to me) seems to operate faster (ie...boot up, game load) I highly recommend him to anyone that wants to keep their PS3 (20 gig to early 80 gig) playing those PS2 games and others. His prices are very reasonable and would not hesitate to seek out his services again! Thanks!!!
