It says it needs 450W minimum so idk..

It passed through the checks and they haven't contact me about any problems

In testing now for a couple of hours, hopefully will be in QC later!

High hopes for having it on/before Monday!

Saved money on delivery, thankfully I'm heading down south to Glasgow on Friday, I live on the Isle of Skye in the highlands of Scotland and I would've had to pay an extra £12 for postage :p

You didn't chose fast track? That is pretty fast, around 7 working days for testing.

*UPDATED*

Added pics, It came on Monday I just forgot to get back to you guys :p


Also, I'm thinking about adding a case fan just so it's well ventilated etc, (Possibly a 200mm on the top), any recommendations for which fan I could purchase? And if my power will handle it.. :p

Just noticed you have the old (phat) PS3 but the box next to it is the box you get with the slims.

Yeah that ps3 has sadly died (YLOD, it overheated and I found no way to fix it), so that's its temporary grave RIP!

Served me well, 4-5 years with no problem!


So I bought the newer version, and I chucked the box there :p

Ah right. My original Phatty died after 3 years late last year. Took it back to Argos, stated the Sales of Goods Act and after a bit of arguing, walked away with a brand new PS3 Slim free of charge. :)
