I've been running my PS3 folding 24x7 since 2007 without any issues *knock on wood*

My kids just talked me out of putting my Play Station 3 (used as a blu-ray player) into crunching. I think they were more worried that they couldn't play games when they visit than the ability of it to stand up to 24/7 100% processing -- lol. Aw that is a shame If you bought an aftermarket warranty for it, then why not run it full-bore 24/7 till smoke pours out of it? That was my theory with my oced 8800GT with 100+ mhz improvement on clock speed and 100 mhz on memory. But then again, my 8800GT massively failed when the coolant fan destroyed itself. Now I keep it cool with a 120mm fan that pushes 130 cubic feet of air per minute. ROFL! Nope -- didn't buy one. |

I would have a lot of difficulty playing because of the partial paralysis in my hands (aside from also being an old fart - lol). I did buy a second game controller for my sons to use when they come over though. I am really finding that the use of my PC's as media servers may end up being the major way I use it, although I really bought it for blu-ray. At prersent, I do not have blu-ray on any of my PC's even if there is a utility out there that would rip them to a hard drive. |

I'm going to get a PS3 when Final Fantasy XIII comes out. ![]() Not till Q2, 2010 Final Fantasy is probably the ONLY game I've ever really enjoyed and got into. Any other RPGs that you can recommend that are like it? |

Not a turn based RPG though. http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/6190/31990715.png ^ Can someone help me figure out why only 3 cores are being used? Also, I have checked my settings, and it is set to use 100% of all CPU 100% of the time. |
