Forums - Sony Discussion - Informal poll: Do the PS3 fans suck or do they blow?

I was just curious about whether people thought the fans inside the PS3 sucked air or blew air. Personally I believe that the PS3 fans blow because they blow air onto the heatsink. But since im only one person I wanted to see what you guys thought of the whole thing.



Tease.

I vacuum my PS3 if that helps answer your question.

But I find that some of them blow by the action of the sucking, so who knows?

PS3 fans suck- always overpredicting and overhyping, and bringing up quality in sales arguments

I was under the impression that it was necessary for all humans to both inhale and exhale in order to survive.

the PS3 fan sucks in air from the front and then blows the cooler air through the heatsink which then gets blown out the back of the PS3...all while i play games and get a head.

You should just keep your head with you- having to go to your room and get it while playing a game is very inconvenient.

They suck... no doubt about that.

I've heard they are good at blowing too. Noone complains of an overheating PS3!



Tease.
