All of you acting like it's the end of the world because he butchered his ps3, it's not like it's a $5,000 custom built PC. It never even went for a $1,000, unless you're one of the idiots who paid $1,500 on ebay for one of them when they first came out. The persons saying that your ps3 doesn't get hot probably don't play the most stressful games on it. My house is at 73 degrees Fahrenheit with the my ps3 in an open area and it puts out hotter air playing diablo 3 off of an SSD than my OC'd gaming pc does running benchmarks. It's common sense that cooler is better in terms of electronics, something that wouldn't really hurt for the ps3.

It doesn't even look that bad, wtf. And it's in areas you won't even notice most of the time...
