fabler Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Hello Guys, It's been two months since I bought my xbox 360 and a kinect bundle. It was winter so, the xbox wasn't getting so hot. But yesterday I feel that it got too much hot while playing games. Can anybody gimme a right guidance to keep it cool. I don't have an AC in my room. I've kept my xbox horizontally. So, it's exhausting fan is pointing towards the ceiling. Guys need your tips on this. Coz now summer is coming. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden Frag Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Icebox. OT - Get a external cooler fan,Available in Ebay. It damages Xbox more ... it blocks the air flow ..which causes more chances of RROD . dont use those inter-cooler fans Just keep it in a well ventilated area..

Slim aur kaunsa Slim comes with failsafe mechanism...it will shut down your system ,if its gets over heated and slim is very reliable...nothing will happen just keep it away from dust and heat in a well ventilated place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aqswde Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Just keep 6 inches of space either side, place it horizontal and not vertical. Stop worrying and enjoy you gaming you have 3 years warranty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sugat S Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 err...wrong section bro. This question should be put in Techzone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HundredProofSam Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 You just get one year warranty now. And when you say it gets hot, do you mean that it gives out a lot of heat? If that's the case, then there's nothing to worry about. The new 360 does expel a lot of heat (it's way better than keeping it in), and after a few hours of gaming, it does get really hot. It's normal. It gets that hot even if the room is air-conditioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fabler Posted February 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 which model you are using? It is slim 4GB one. It damages Xbox more ... it blocks the air flow ..which causes more chances of RROD . dont use those inter-cooler fans Just keep it in a well ventilated area.. Alright.. I kept it in computer table. I hope that won't be any problem. ^ Buzz Slim aur kaunsa Slim comes with failsafe mechanism...it will shut down your system ,if its gets over heated and slim is very reliable...nothing will happen just keep it away from dust and heat in a well ventilated place Its good to hear that it has failsafe mechanism. But dust is the problem here. My xbox become very dusty in 2 days. Is there any way I can clean it? I use normal cleaning cloth to clean it. But I think it is not suffice. Just keep 6 inches of space either side, place it horizontal and not vertical. Stop worrying and enjoy you gaming you have 3 years warranty. Okay.. It doesn't have six inches open space all the sides. I will have to take care of it. And I've placed it horizontally. ^^ no slim comes with 1 year warranty i guess...? I don't know.. may be it is one year only. What should I have to do to get one year warranty? Do I need to register it somewhere? BTW Thank you all for replies and suggestions.

fabler Posted February 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 again, 3 years only for RROD so much trolling Great.. to hear that.. 3 years for RROD. I hope I don't need to get that warranty. err...wrong section bro. This question should be put in Techzone. I am sorry about that. Mod, please move this thread. You just get one year warranty now. And when you say it gets hot, do you mean that it gives out a lot of heat? If that's the case, then there's nothing to worry about. The new 360 does expel a lot of heat (it's way better than keeping it in), and after a few hours of gaming, it does get really hot. It's normal. It gets that hot even if the room is air-conditioned. Wow.. Nice. I really didn't think that. Yeah it gives out a lot of heat. I hope that would be normal and I can play games without worrying. thank you guys.

WhiteWolf Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Fabler best solution..to reduce the heat is install the games on HDD.....Get two scan disk or or hp 16gb pendrive... install full game on hdd and then play it from pendrive....... Disc drive will not spin that means less heat and less power consumption ..Better load times..... i install all my games on hdd..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeehunter Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Xbox 360 slim comes with One year Warranty only officially. There is no 3 yrs warranty for RROD like the fats ones had .. MS India gives lifetime warranty though . I love MS India Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
