WTB: Xbox 360 watercooling

Post by aj23 »

Looking for any watercooling parts for the xbox 360. More interested in a rad and waterblocks, but if you have anything useful for this, let me know.

hope this helps
I can only use the water block out of that though, so anything else is still apreciated on sources to get the parts, of if you have 'em.

If you want to make your own for your system, this guide could help you out greatly. I'm going to try it out sometime. It should be fairly cheap, at least a lot cheaper than Koolance's setup, even though it isn't as nice as having it all at once and made for the specific purpose of cooling your 360.

If you're brave you could MAKE the waterblocks by encasing small finned copper heatsinks in plastic and running tubing through it. You could cut the fins very short and still have it work efficiently. Making sure it's water-tight would be the tricky part.

Thanks for the link

I know the concept of all that already though, it's just sourcing the parts. I'd rather not make my own waterblock, as I'd most likely not correctly do it.

Since you're supposed to leak test the system for 24 hours after you assemble it, if you did it wrong you wouldn't hurt anything and you'd still have a chance to correct it

That's true I guess. I could attempt it, if I had more of a knowledge base on the subject. That site doesn't really say enough about how to put one together, and I myself am not a water cooling expert.

That is quite a nice-looking find. Too bad I can't find one anywhere either. If I found one I'd buy an extra one for you and just charge you the base price and shipping to Canada, so I'll keep an eye out for you. I have no idea what the price is on it at all though.

When it was available, it was around $70-$80. If we buy it from someone it will probably be cheaper, or about the same if brand new from a store. I'll be on the look out for an extra for you as well, that is if I can find one.
