uhhhhhh over-xclamped?

So, my 360 started rroding again, so I unplugged the fan and stuck it over just the cpu. The guide said 20 minutes, but I think I may have accidentally let it run 50 minutes or so. After letting it cool for 15 minutes, it still rrod's.

Is it time to upgrade to a jasper or do I just need to keep on trying
It's had the rrod and been fixed 4 times now...

yep just go for a jasper its not worth it...if you are getting the 0021 error go for a new one also loosen up on those clamps

bummer. I say get a new one. Try to sell it on ebay and you can usually get at least $50 for it.

yeah, I could sell it on ebay, but I'd feel like a scammer unless I included that its had the rrod 4 times before and I may have totally fried the gpu

might see if I can get a falcon that doesn't have the newest bootloader, then I can run linux on it and put libxenon to work with my minimal programming skills. I'd try to get one that was just m$ refurbished or brand new though, which might be tough. I'm gonna have to go to like 5 stores and have them unlock the cases so I can look in the handle where you hold the box to see what model it is

Typically the heat doesn't kill the chip even if you go over. chips can tolerate it and the whole point of doing this is to let the solder flow a little better..

Maybe loosen the clamps some, and make sure you have decent connections...
