Which ps3 should i buy?

**soratheultima** · 07-26-2012,08:53 PM

WELP now that im ps3'less and i only have a cobra dongle, what model ps3 should i buy? should i wait for the new super slim? or should i get a slim? or should i get another BC model. i can't decide i'm already modding my ps2 with a modchip next week so i guess BC model is out due to frequent failures

Went through three BC models and the 120gb slims are prone to laser failure but my 80gb NOR phat has been a friggin BEAST and lasted the test of time. I left it on for like three days straight when we got PSN back to get my $600+ worth of content I had already bought and it never even got warm.

found a cheap CECHE01 *software BC* model motherboard with the card reader and wifiboard and logicboard for 110 dollars and at firmware 2.17 never had YLOD or been reflowed i got a bluray drive for 45 dollars to and i'm probably going to get a new case to for 15-30 dollars (excited) now i can put my cobra dongle to some use ! good thing that i salvaged my fan speed modchip so i can keep the system in good shape
