my take on the PS3 accessory Intercooler it works great keeps the PS3 About 70% cooler than factory it also turns on and off by itself and it goes on the side of the system the bad thing its a little loud but is it anything that ur surround sound cant fiv though lol I rate it 9 outta 10

I totally agree with you hitman...this thing works great and I would recommend getting one. My PS3 hasn't locked up since I got this a couple of weeks ago. Hey Hitman what do you mean it shuts off by itself. I thought you had to turn off the powerswitch to turn it off, or does it go off after a couple of minutes. Let me know.

Do you lot think i would need one for the summer?

TheBigTen-Paulie · #4 (**permalink**) May 23rd, 2007, 17:12

I would recommend it for all the time. I mean if you don't have AC where you stay I would make sure to get it...but I like it because anytime a pc or console is cooler the better it will perform.

I have Cable Turbo (Road Runner Turbo) thats why my connection is so fast. It looks like you have DSL which is alright but cable is normally 2 or 3 times faster.

im fine with dsl, i can connect to 8 out of 10 games and i dont really lag unless i join a game with really bad connection

You serious? It actually turns off by itself when it's done sucking??? I never knew that. I always turned it off manually.

GOTTA TRY IT NOW.

TheBigTen-Paulie · #14 (**permalink**) May 24th, 2007, 09:26

Yeah I left mine run for about 5 minutes but it never shut off. How long does it normally take?

TheBigTen-Paulie · #15 (**permalink**) May 24th, 2007, 10:08

Okay I did some research on the intercooler. The Nyko Intercooler does not switch off automatically, it has a power switch in the front with fan speed controls. The Pelican Air Flow Cooler though does turn off automatically. It doesn't have a speed control, but in the last half hour I read a bunch of reviews saying that the Pelican one is better and people feel safer with it because it doesn't use the PS3's power supply. I may end up taking my Nyko back, or get the Pelican and try them both and then take back the one I don't like.

Shit i thought their was only one brand lol sorry

I wondered why it wouldn't shut off. I accidentally left it on all night and I woke up to the annoying humming of the intercooler. I'll probably just keep the Nyko one I have right now just for the fact that Best Buy only carries 1 brand right now.
