Since you will have to open up your PS3 I'd recommend changing the thermal paste. Here the instructions for the PS3 slim or the PS3 fat since I don't know which one you own. If you can't get the PS3 to work again after that then you can look for a guide on how to open up the blu-ray drive.

If you just follow the reflow procedure and it fixes your unit, you can use the PS3 like normal.
