great??? :S man you are mad...
what does it matter if sony forum is trolled? it should not be allowed anyway...

 I agree all parts of the site should be troll free, but when the Sony part of the site is trolled non stop expect some sony fanboys to lash out.  The worst fans on the site are the wii fans and its been like that since forever, and the mods do nothing becasue they are all friends with the wii trolls.

 Do you mean the cooler as in the one that could potentially damage your 360? Isn't like the Nokia (probably spelled wrong) intercooler or something like that? It'd probably be better to make sure the unit has plenty of air around it and not stuff it into a tight space.



give some examples from trolls in sony forum...

Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

anyway if it are wiifanboys go troll there not here

False. The Blu-ray drive speeds are pretty comparable, and there are DVD players that are as fast but quiet. The noise level is related to the quality, not speed - I have seen 18x drives that run quieter.


Well, in theory, 8X DVD spins the disc physically about 4 times faster than 2X BD. But because data is more densely packed in BD their data read speeds are the same. I won't argue with actual data read speeds (I believe there isn't a big difference) but physically disc spins faster in 360. So drive speed does explain noise partly (but not entirely).



@mrstickball
