Probably fixable. Three things would make a clunk: hard drive, BD drive, fan. All easily replaceable.

So how long you had it. Month and year to month and year… please.

Hit it with a can of compressed air, both inside and definitely outside.

Are you seeing the yellow light of death?

Have you tried cleaning it?
eindbaas
Has the thought ever crossed your mind to….well, you know ….clean it?

The dust probably killed it at least try cleaning it up.
CaramelAromatic9358
Clean it, the fun ain’t over!
DeepJudgment
Are you surprised? You didn’t even bother to dust her, not even for a photo. I fear what is inside
DataSurging
It probably gave out because you never cleaned it or took care of it. That said, most likely fixable. New thermal paste or a new disc drive, or HDD.

basic maintainance should work just fine
looks like it was 2017 when you last cleaned that shit
EarRemarkable4
That dusty thing lasted THIS long???
KazinGX
You know consoles can be cleaned, right?

Sorry you all – I do clean her monthly… in a spare room that for some reason gets super dusty.
While I might be an animal I’m not a savage!

Whenever I think of the PS3, I always think of Mafia 2, loved the game, wished the game never ended.

If you don’t mind voiding the warranty (ecks dee) you could literally just open it up and take a look. If you hear something like that odds are you might be able to easily see what physically broke and in the best case fix it

poor thing choked to death on dust…
CrustedTesticle
That thing needs to be wiped down man, no wonder it gave out.

You can’t even imagine what the inside looks like if the outside looks like that!

Why did you do this to yourself
Layhult
Just open it up and look up a YouTube video to help you fix it.

Ever heard of a duster?
FYou2
I’m sorry for your loss
ExplodingFistz
Not shocked. Looks like that thing hasn’t had proper maintenance. Anyway it shouldn’t be completely broken. Open it and examine the damage
Torpedospacedance
Might have lasted longer of you “dusted” your stuff lol

I love be the controller, have a ps3 that I don’t really play on anymore

You seem to like it so much, yet let it get filthy. I bet it’s dusty aaf inside. Weird post.

It’s always the power supply that goes out on mine, but I wouldn’t describe those going out as a clunk.
