Is it safe to put a soft towel under my PS3?

Question

If I put it on a carpet what will happen to it?

Answer 1

it will over heat

Answer 2

No dont do that it will overheat.

Maybe if you tell me a reason for putting a towel I can help you with an alternative action.

Answer 3

It all depends on the ambient temperature. I wouldn't let a PS3 get too hot as they are know for overheating. Ambient temperature of quad core chips are somewhere around 40 degrees Celsius. So be careful and don't block the airflow. If your looking to protect it, you can buy those soft pads for desks and tables and stuff (used to protect wood floors), usually found at Target or Walmart, and put those on each of the four corners.

Answer 4

If you are jus wanting to prevent it from scratching something, they make felt and cork dots that are sticky on one side to put on the bottom just for that purpose.  They are available at most discount and hardware stores.
