[QUOTE="kevmc"]Id recommend buying an intercooler they're only 20 bucks you can get them at gamestop. 3 extra fans that clip on to the back of the 360. I have had a 360 since launch with no problems and everybody i personally know with 360s (bout 7 others) have had no problems (most have intercoolers)kevmc

I am sorry to say but that is total crap, you shouldnt have to buy an intercooler, it should work fine as it is.

You shouldnt but why not spend an extra 20 dollars and not have to deal with any extra hassles. And even then systems without immediate heating or hardware problems will break a few years down the road. Most consoles will break at some point. They arent meant to last over like 8 years. Why not extend the life of your console? Im just speaking from experience and paying a few dollars for an intercooler is a lot better and proactive than whining on the boards and sending your xbox in.

Anybody remember the days when something made would last longer than 3 months?  Especially after spending $350.00.  If I recall my original Nintendo still works and it's well over 8 years old.
