Hi guys, i have a ps3 which was bought mainly for its dvd / blu ray features, it makes a great player except i cant use it as one...
the reason why? its just too damn noisy!
it starts up whisper silent then gradually gets so noisy it gives the hoover a run for its money (usually happens about half way through a film or an hour or so into web browsing / gaming / anything really!!!)
i jumped onto google to see if this was normal (i thought the ps3 was meant to be quieter than the 360)
well google tells me the ps3 has a few fan speed settings (which would explain the gradual increase) and that it gets louder as its temp rises (makes sense) and that i should give it plenty of room to breathe.
so out comes the ps3 from the cabnet under my tv and onto the coffee table it goes (it has nothing around it and plenty of breathing space aswell as the window being open) and still it does it! i could smash it i really could! i assume that this cant be normal?!? surely?!?
it is covered under that continuous play sceme, do you think they'll replace it? or should i throw it down the stairs and say it stopped working? or is there a better solution?
