so i need some input/advice/opinions plz.
i currently have a PS3 slim ive been thinking about buying a PS3 fat to have as a spare, plus i love the look of the fat and always wanted one. but im weary of buying a fat because i read lots of stories about the yellow light of death. and most of the fat PS3's i find for sale on ebay that are listed as used are from sellers who have no idea what the yellow light of death is
guess what im asking is should i just bite the bullet and buy a fat and pray it doesnt get the yellow light of death or should i pass and just be happy with my slim knowing i will never own a fat in my collection
if it matters estimated cost if i bought a fat would be 60-70 plus shipping, so in other words i would be buying a used fat not knowing what kind of life it lived unless the ebay listing clearly states never had YLOD which most listings do not
hell i asked one seller if he ever refurbed the console and he asked me what i was talking about
thanks for your time
if i buy the fat after i replace the thermal paste i can always use webman to set a custom fan curve
