Sony PS3 Vertical or Horizontal
Lately I have moved my Sony PS3 back and forth, between the main living room and the more quiet conservatory a few times to see which room is better for gaming. While I have been doing this, the Playstation 3 has sometimes been in the normal horizontal position and other times in vertical with a stand.

I am lost at which way I prefer; currently the 42inch Plasma in the living room and with the Sony PS3 in a vertical position looks best.

How do you like your Sony PS3, Vertical or Horizontal and have you found any advantages or problems in the operation in either position.

    Actually, vert is better because heat rises out of the vents that would be on top. Unlike the ps2 who’s cooling setup wasn’t really affected because of the single centrally located fan pulling air thru the system, the ps3’s fan is a barrel type that hovers over the processor and throws air out. If you restrict it in the solid top piece of the case, you will only recycle that hot air and impede the movement of air thru the rather large heat sink.

    I actually keep mine horizontal. The disc’s seem to load easier, plus i dont really have the room to stand it upright.

  9. omseti otway says:

    i think the console does better vertical because the top part’s side vent is really close to the ground or surface its on so it will not get the best ventilation. vertically it will be free of any nearby objects
