Almost a week since i'd done it now. Even put in arkham asylum and have noticed the fan not needing to spin up as much or as loudly since the "operation."

Yea, Batman AA was just one of those games that before was notorious for getting the ps3 to spin up its fan to quite uncomfortable levels. no doubt due to all that glop that sony put on there from the factory.

Twisted Metal 2 (installed on hard drive) will still get it to spin up to that level, but it now takes a fair bit more playing. And even after exiting, it will quiet down faster.

Haven't gone through all of my games yet, but most of them seem to stay in that mid-range level for the fan, where the most i hear is the sound of the air moving through it, and more of the games are now in the "can't hear the console" level anymore. I'm looking forward to seeing how it goes after this week.
