new ps3 seams to get hot quick

this new slim seams to get hot alot quicker than my old one...i tried standing it up instead of laying it down flat but that seamed to help..i dont have a whole lot of extra cash so im wondering if 30 bucks on a fan would be worth it?

lol would u 2 recomend a fan? im tring the y.l.o.d.disk eject trick out tonight wish me luck...

thanks for the feedback...thats a shocker though...i guess after i got my y.l.o.d. im being a little anal about my slim...i was gonna get a fan today but i was like hmm maybe ill wait and see what gamespotters say....i mean can it hurt????

its not that hot amigo, sure the air coming out the back feels sorta hot but its still well under the limit to burn or damage metal/lead products. look at it this way, it can handle well over 100 degree F for several hours, easy!

Longest non stop playing time I got with my PS3 slim was nine hours now, and it haven't got hot in any way (besides it's back, something natural, since thats where the fans are).

mine seems to make some cracking sound from time to time, but it doesnt overheat at all
