Hi guys, I just got a new ps3 (80gb, 2 usb slots). I have downloaded an ISO image for a game (wwe smackdown vs Raw PS3) onto my PC from mininova. I donot know what I should do from here in order to play it on my PS3. Please please please let me know how to write it on to a DVD and in which format and using which software.

Thanks

Well you keep it on your hdd until someone finally hacks the PS3. Depending on how they crack it, you either burn it to a disk as usual, or copy it to the PS3 hdd.

But the first thing you really should do s realise that noone has hacked the PS3 and writing please 3 times isnt gonna help with the fact that it cannot be done yet.

If you still dont understand, you cannot play copied PS3 games yet!

You could install the Yellow dog OS (Linux) and turn it into a computer...

Binary code...

You can also physically mod it and install a Swap Switch that'll allow you to play PS1/PS2 backups, but not PS3.

And if you've got Swap Magic, you can use that to boot up PS2 backups as well as run some Genesis/SNES emulators.

And if you haven't updated to the latest firmware yet, you can also play NES games straight from the XMB via BD-J. (The 1.6 or so firmware update stopped this.)

That's some of the "mods" you can do, the first one being the only actual mod. Hope that helps.

Also one of the companies made a liquid cooling block specifically for the ps3 so you can run a liquid cooling setup relatively easily. Forget which company it was, it was awhile ago that I was looking into it.

Cooling by oil, canucker? Or was it water cooling? (Probably the second, but have you seen those oil coolers? Man, they're freaking awesome. You can submerge an entire computer in a vat of oil or some sort of organic compound like that and it'd still work fine.)

Anyway. Geek, me.

iirc its a low conductivity liquid, not an oil as an oil is a hydrocarbon and can catch fire which is just as bad as it shorting out something.

ps: they never use nor refer to it as "water" cooling for the reason you described, they always use a low conductivity liquid.

The ball is back in your court =P

Yes, but you see, hydrocarbons have almost zero conductivity to them. At least from what I recall in Chem... So oil would be a perfect choice. (And in fact that's what some people use. Though I doubt that's what's being used right now for what you're talking about.)

Lowest smoking temp. of common cooking oil, in this case lard = 183 degrees Celsius.

Average operating temperature of a CPU run for a while = 50-70 degrees Celsius.

So obviously you don't have to worry about the fat suddenly exploding into fire and you losing all your precious RAM and quad-core processors.

That said, water - that is, pure water - also has zero conductivity whatsoever. The only thing is that pure water can only be artificially made in space, or so I've heard. Even deionized water would short something out.

Therefore, oil.

Huzzah!

Was gonna say pure water is one of the best insulators. Hard to come by though.

Ah that explains it, I knew someone had made one but I couldnt find the damn thing when I was looking for it the other day. Must not have gotten enough sales.
