back in my days that always fixed the VCR
what the fuck is wrong with the xbone brand
>>320822172
>It never stops.
What is my old original white 360.
I went through about 3 of them then got a fat Ps3 instead.
>Dreamcast becomes a playable character in sega's mario kart clone
>mfw the disc eating sound plays when you hit a wall
>playing RDR on my ps3
Holy fuck, not even my ref 980 at 80% fan with the case open is that loud
never heard any of my consoles make noise
friend often complains about his noisy ps3 and ps4 though, mines never did anything I can hear unless I get real close to listen -- not sure if the blu-ray drive is noisy on PS4, I never used it (digital only)
never had a 360 though

Or maybe you cant hear it

>>320822650
it's always sub 17-18C in my room because of AC, maybe the fans just aren't speeding up
>>320822660
Most modern GPUs go up to 95c without issue
>>320822705
I was mostly referring to the ps3, the bluray is loud as all fucking fuck
>>320822730
it's a good way to reduce their lifetime though, unless they're never cooling (it's the heating+cooling that ends up breaking things)
>wear headset
>have separate fan aimed at me
>can't if loud fan noise is the fan or my computer/console late at night
>>320822784
it's pretty quiet for me, maybe it's just the model I've had (one of them ylod'ed)

I FUCKING LOVE VIDEOGAMES
>>320822880
dust actually can cause slowdowns with some hardware
some will just stop when they're too hot, while some others auto-regulate not reduce heating, and a handful will keep going until your house is on fire
>>320822796
Really?
Thanks for letting me know because I always capped my GPU to 50% in Afterburner and just let it like that after playing until it cooled off
Gonna let it cool down in auto from now instead
>>320822860
Maybe, I keep my super slim on the desk where my PC is and if I play something hardware intensive off the bluray I gotta crank the volume up
>>320822975
to reduce*
on a related note, actually had a old athlon that never stopped -- it's the freaking smoke that gave me a warning sign that the fan had stopped running
>>320822289
>should of
triggered
>My ps3 verbally assaults me for playing it
>>320822880
What is that switch?
>>320822975
>and a handful will keep going until your house is on fire
There's still hardware that does this?
>>320823171
I'm pretty sure it was the voltage switch.
>>320823171
probably not "still" but a lot of pre-2004 hardware can be risky -- and maybe some other badly tested/setup things which you never know
mine was from 2003 and did that (dual 2GHz athlon MP, so it was pretty alright and used it as a server for years until it started emmitting smoke and never turned off until I pulled the plug)
bought a 360 at launch
i know this feeling too well

>enter a loading screen
>disc starts clacking, clicking. and swishing inside the console
>i-it's normal, r-right?
also, I still remember the first time I turned on a 360
>>320823171
That little 120/230V switch, I guess. If the voltage of the mains is 230V and the PSU is switched to 120V it goes boom

>all these console things that I never experienced since a normal disc drive in a desktop computer is not built with duct tape, wood splinters and crossed fingers
I don't know if I should feel bad or laugh.
Even some of my oldest game CDs (and CD players) work perfectly fine after 15+ years of use (and abuse).

>>320829267
that's what I did for a while as well, for a lot of different fans
unfortunately it eventually stopped yielding results, either it's permanent noisy or the fan just stops
