My 360 breaks alot for some reason even though its in a nice cool room with a fan blowing in the vents on the side. i was thinking of removing the crappy fans that the xbox comes with and buying stronger ones. but it voids my warranty. but im pretty postive my 360 wont break if its cool. yay or nay?

Nay. They sell cooling devices for it that don't void the warranty. Just buy one of those.

The case is called a Ghost Case. The back fan is a WHISPER MAX. The bottom one is a XCM fan. And there are heat sinks on the memory chips. Thanks to those who like it.

Yeah, I put better thermal paste on the CPU and GPU, and now the exhaust air is a bit warmer than it was before. I also put a divider between the two fans so that one cools the CPU only, and the other cools the GPU only. I did this about 6 months ago, so far, so good. I didn't have any problems with my 360 before this mod though, I only made these improvement to PREVENT RROD.
