Also any news on whether hooking it up online is easier than it was for the PS2?

Jamez said:Sony will have a serious panic on their hands trying to get the PS3 released by then. They've been experiencing problems with the power supply overheating (similar to the 360) and may need to have a large external power pack instead (like the 360 again). There was even rumours that the cell proccessor runs so hot that its proccessing power may be lowered. Of course this is all rumour from various forums i have checked out recently.
Then why not put a heatsink fan of some sort on the cell processor, just like what they put on CPUs?jamez said:Sony will have a serious panic on their hands trying to get the PS3 released by then.

Travis Bickle said:This is an "official PS3 thread", not some viral marketeering 360 vs PS3, just fuck off and let people look at official specs and information on PS3.
Also "footballcool91" those are old specs, Sony have got rid of the dual HDMI outputs. Go on the official site...
