Think You're Running Hot

Very, very significant drop in temperature!!!, as compared to just having fan blowing in front. Does not have to be in an enclosed place like my set up...The trick is use a house fan that you can directly place behind the PS3 unit....FACING AWAY....further drawing the hot air from the exhaust vents...not rocket science Again, the fan is FACING AWAY from the PS3 unit in the back. So the fan is SUCKING the hot air being blown out of the exhaust vent of the PS3 unit. Whether it will solve whatever problems I have...I am 110% sure that it is definitely running cooler, which is a good thing irregardless Last edited by alsevillajr; 08-23-2011 at 05:45 PM. |

Happy to report...haven't had the "Lag" or delay problems since I implemented home remedy...So I'm pretty convinced... may well been overheating problems IMO
So try it...if anything. a cool chip is a happy chip |
