It will be fine, it puts out way more heat than the Xbox, so keeps tself alot cooler. I know people that leave it on weeks on end. It's a solid machine.

Hi,

To be honest you really dont need one unless your PS3 is hidden in some kind of funiture and ´cant breath´.

dont buy it, two reasons

1. the ps3 is cool enough so it doesnt overheat
2. the fan sucks up power from the usb connects so it makes the ps3 run slower (its what iv heard)
