There is zero evidence that any PS3 needs any help cooling itself. These folks are just trying to get you to waste your money into their hands by making you assume that since other consoles DO need cooling help, then PS3 should too. PS3's don't overheat after "extended hours of PS3 gaming" either, regardless of the implication of this post. PLUS, this thing draws power FROM the PS3, thus increasing the potential heat load. Just plain dumb, don't go for it. Want evidence? THOUSANDS of PS3's are running at 100% for 24/7 doing Folding@Home and not a single report of overheat failures. F@H stresses the PS3 far more than any extended gaming, so if extra cooling isn't needed there, why would anyone (unless they have more money than sense) think any gaming would need this thing?
