Hi guys,

First of all, my PS3 is a 40GB JP Fat Model. (CECHJxx)

Seems like the noisy PS3 issue has been happening quite often for the past 2 weeks. I have did some troubleshooting and here is my observation:

1. For the past two weeks, I am only playing Uncharted 2. Haven't tested with other games yet. So, I couldn't jump into the conclusion that it is a software problem.

2.The noise problem is more apparent during day time when the weather feels warm and hot.

3. I turned off my PS3 and turned on the air-cond in my room and restarted it. When my room is cool enough, the noise problem seemed not happening at all.

Should I be worried and just bring my PS3 to any repair shop for a checkup/service? If yes, then is there any shops that you guys can recommend sending my PS3 to?

Thanks in advance.

i want make new psn id!!
how?
i use ps3 but it keep say sign in but never say sign up!

if can, pls give me the website

Don't worry mate.
People who is playing Uncharted 2, more than 70% (that means the entire world, not only here) of them will have their fan kicked up to top speed within 30 minutes.

The game is just pushing the PS3 right up to its limits.
So no surprise there and I've expected it from the beginning as well.

My PS3 is extremely clean (I open mine up and clean once a month), my fan does go into scream mode as well when playing Uncharted 2.
NGS2 is fine though.

i'm having this less a same problem..juz changed my hdd few week ok, then i try Uncharted 2 Demo, my ps3 suddenly shutdown by itself, then when try the full game which is today, i had the same problem..do i need to send for repair coz when i played another game like DIRT2, i don't hav any problem at all..
please guyz, need ur opinion here..dying to play uncharted la..  

If i plug my ext hdd to ps3. i can watch movies directly?

thanks for the feedback

Your PS3 is shutting down immediately to prevent any further damage as it is overheating.
Supposedly your fan should kick into full speed to aid the overheating issue though.

You may want to clean your PS3 up first before sending it in for a check.

Provided the video's format is supported, then yes.

@frr
It is due to something rather technical on the hardware side that I'm not 100% sure about at this point, it seems.
So I don't wish to talk about it as of this time so not to confuse others.

But yea, try cleaning your PS3 first.

ps3 freeze while playing grid online, is it normal?

please read the first page for your screen question. the answer is probably there.

I read it already. I did exactly what it says but still no graphics on my monitor~!
