What firmware is on it?

The Big Blue · 10-30-2007, 03:03 PM

Is the venting different (less)? Is the PS logo turned 90 deg.?

individual walmarts follow their own rules. Or maybe you had a naive clerk.
And also I dont get why these come out on Friday?

My 60 gets alittle hot, but the fan doesn't get that loud.
Its hardly noticable while watching movies or playing games.

It's been revealed that the new 40GB PlayStation 3 features more than just a cut down hard disk drive. Sony has also thought to stick the 65nm version of the Cell inside the new console, reducing the power usage down to around 135 Watts (down from 200 Watts.) That means the console also runs cooler and quieter, which is always a plus for a device that usually resides in the living room. Sony also jiggled around a few other components by making the heat pipe smaller, swapping out the motherboard for a new version, and added a button battery to keep time when the system is off. Looks like potential PS3 purchasers will be looking forward to a less noticeable din then.

At my local Gamestop when the employee went to the back to get me my copy of the Stranglehold/Hard Boiled Blu-ray, I could see the piles of 40GB PS3s back there
