Is it normal for my ps3 to act so strange?

My boyfriend bought a new ps3 and I've been using it .. Latley its been freezing on Netflix after 5minutes,if it messes up the blame is on me So i dont know what to do, i herd that it could be a over heating problem if put in small spaces ?? Which btw it was in my dressor.. with it opend of course plugged into the tv. Alothough after reading it could be over heating I took the ps3 out and put it on my speaker so it wont be in the dressor no more and its making a average noise with the fan(loud noises are the ones to worrie about is what I herd) but I'm just supper worried that its not making a loud enough noise with the fan? Is everything going to be ok ? Ever sense I took it out of the dressor it hasn't been freezing . i need advice ,help. Plz.

    Heat is the common killer of electronics. Why would you put the unit in a dresser drawer? Of course it's going to overheat. Look up the manual on line and it will tell you not to put it in enclosed spaces and provide air flow around the unit.

    If it has stopped freezing and the fan is quieter, that's a good thing surely? Was probably just getting dusty and overheating in there.

      so take it apart and blow it out with some air duster

      and keep the duster away from any other iin members cause theyll inhale it all

        I like those tiny hoovers you can get for PCs, my share of the duster is there if anybody wants it.
