"The only problem I have is that if I put my ear close to the back of the console. I can hear a rather buzzing or small chirping sound. I do notice that after 3 hours or so the console fan does start to kick into high gear and pushes the hot air out good."
The chirping you heard has been mentioned on the Sony site before but i'm not sure they have found out what was causing it, but it does not happen to all PS3's.
Regarding the louder fan after 3 hours, the PS3 has models that were made in china and japan, one of the models has a louder fan. But the heat that comes out of the system is crazy sometimes, i could cook food next to my Ps3.
