La Noire Fan Noise.

How do I clean the vents? I use a vacuum hose about 2-3 weeks trying to suck dust from the back vent, the side vent, the vent in the front. But it doesn't seem like it's doing anything. How do you clean the vents?AJV91

Canned air. Also, if you're warranty has run out, just open up the ps3 nad clean it out, then put the cover back on. It basically slides off if you just unscrew the screws.

I have the fan noise thing too (fat, 40 GB) - but mine has always had it or I am just playing the games that make it come on, I'm not sure which. I do remember the fan running often when I played RDR. I haven't noticed it when I am playing BFBC2. It comes and goes during Resistance 2. When I first got it, I was alarmed about how powerful the noise was, but it seems to be doing great so I'm not worried.... *crosses fingers*

Just to give you a heads up dude, I have read a couple of reports that the canned air sometimes can damage the internal hardware, dislodging, etc.

Might want to maybe take a look at that, would hate to see anything happen to your PS3...
