I think i've heared so many stories of it being quiet that I got worried. I'm maybe especially listening to it or something which is making it sound worse. When i'm playing games its not heared hardly because games are genarally noisy (Which is good), but when i'm playing movies its noticeable (I imagined it would be quieter, or at least pull down a gear when detecting movie playback as its not the most taxing of processes), when its running Folding@Home and TV is on I can hear the PS3 over the TV on average volume (Quite annoying), But I understand how Taxing F@H is on the Cell. I think maybe I just need to relax... :) Ok that sounds a bit more like mine then. I think i’ve heared so many stories of it being quiet that I got worried.

It's not exactly quiet but it doesn't make itself heard when I'm playing a game. It is noticeable more today than yesterday though. On a scale of 1 to 5 of it being annoying I'd say it was a 2 at worst. It's still early days though. The fan has gotten slightly louder during today’s use.

This is living, eh? And your dead right, typing with sixaxis sux big time. Have u tried F1 with the rain turned on? I thought it was much better looking after I switched it on. Also, is your ps3 DEAD silent 99%? Mine isnt, im worried something is wrong, especially when F@H is running, it sounds as loud as an xbox360 ! Generally the fan runs in 3rd speed after being on for 20mins, 4th when F@H is running. What are other folks PS3s running like on average? Congrats Gary! This is living, eh?
