xbox 360: overheating issues?

i had to get a fan, but don't get a fan that plugs into the 360 b/c it'll drain the power and more than likely cause the red ring of death, mine cost about 15-20 bucks and the xbox just stands on its side into the fan and the fan has its own power cord it think it is a pelican

get a inter cooler they cost about 10 to 20 dollars even if your 360 messes up Microsoft will replace they just added a 3 year warranty to all 360's

Get the cooling system for the 360

There are aftermarket 'cooling pads' available for the Xbox which help circulate air. A free version of this would be a mini electric fan like you would buy for a dorm room (Target,Walmart etc.).

nyko inter-coolers suck i already had two of them and they both messed up just call the xbox provider and ask what the best thing to do . they have extended the warranty on them due to problems

Ok either get the money to buy a fan. Or be cheap like me. All you need is a simple fan hook it up behind your 360 and bam instant cheap guy cooling system. ((OR use an icepack .. ***Results may varry**If you do use an icepack I take no responibility in the damages ))

get an intercooler, they're about 20 dollars and you could pick one up at bestbuy or walmart. i recommend nyko, works great.

Buy one of those cooling things from gamestop, they are like 25 bucks at the most...

i read in the newspaper that microsoft was extending the warranty from 1 year to three years. i would call the company to see if they will replace it.

do u have it in a place where the vents can release the heat?

cuz if its in a tight space the heat cant be released...
