Forums - Sony Discussion - 40GB PS3 Fan Test

Thought this was a pretty nice find. Wish my 60 gig could do that :(

Note: This only works on the 40gb model, if you do this on any other model it will just make a beeping sound.

Sounds like a hair dryer when it is going at full blast.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

I've tried it on my 40GB. Its pretty cool. That fan can sure spin (and make noise) when/if it ever needs to. If it clears up some dust, then all the better. I hope they can use firmware updates for 20, 60 and 80gb versions since I'd love to get some dust out of my 60gb as well.



I hate my 60GB PS3 now.

Sweet, now I don't have to worry that much about overheating from dusting in the future ;D

thats pretty cool



Seems like a good way to get the dust out of the console anyway! I have noticed that my 60GB is getting a bit dusty in the top holes (i keep it vertical) so think i will buy a can of compressed air to get it out :D



is this a test that he just found out whilst messin around or is it an actual test what sony made for ppl to do?

^^ I would guess that he found it as otherwise people here with the 40GB model would know about it also!



I thought this was a test to see if you are a PS3 fan....... *walks out*
