If its a real overheating problem, you can liquid cool it, like they do on PC's. Thinks I've seen it done before on the 360. Makes it silent too XD

yeah they will :P
and its really common with 360s, there is tons of stuff you can do though. AS5 replacement, and fan replacements are the easiest ways.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, you don't need to waste your time and money on intercoolers. Just put your 360 in a reasonably ventilated location. Mine sits below my TV on an aluminum entertainment center with glass shelves. Nothing spectacular, but there is plenty of air circulation.

Out of the 30+ people I know with 360's not one of them has had theirs overheat and none of them use intercoolers.

Just my 2 cents.
