Its summer here and the temperature is round 40-45 C in the day so my ps3 (fat) was overheating within 10-20 mins of gameplay just like last year (It was fine in the winters) but then I found out somehow in the last few days that when the fan in my room was off, my ps3 was not overheating.The fan was loud but not overheating I know its strange so basically my ps3 overheats when I turn on the fan but that's also important because i can't just play with the fan because the room gets really hot and uncomfortable.
What do you guys think could be the reason?
Can I fix this?
Waiting for replies./
