Simply. Amazing. Now the Xbox 360 will never overheat again! Link!

For some reason I thought the 360 was already watercooled. I must have seen something while looking at 360 stuff and remembered it as watercooling on the 360.

They said it would be in the ourcolony.net video, but alas, it wasn't.

Ya, I think what I saw was just someone's wishful thinking.

I wish I had the guts to open up my 360. It overheats constantly, Does anyone else know of any other less hands-on approach to cooling a 360 (Apart from putting a fan next to it).

there's a cooling apparatus you can buy.

It's just an extra fan, really, but it should help out.

Thanks, that helps a lot. The nyko one looks really good and plus it's only $19.99.

Lol, I just picked up a 360 Primium yesterday and so far it's been running great, I did have it hickup thismorning but that was because we had a fire going in the room and it was 28 Celcius and that wasn't helping the 360 stay cool.

Right now i'm broke as a dog so a extra fan (or any other component) is out of the question for a whyle

Some other forums can keep their members. I think it was at gamecube planet(or something like that) there were people talking about sending in their GC's to get the disc error fixed! Any self-respecting Benheck member would tear it apart themselves and hope they could find a solution.

The 360 is water cooled

They have some proprietary new heatsink design that involves water.

Um, no.

The CPU heat sink is supposed to have some weird wter pocket in it that did something. I dont follow all the hacking websites as you people do however I did see on a website where they disected one and explained it. I think it may ahve been befre th final model. Maybe they left it out.
