is this intercooler good, I started reading the reviews from EBGames, and people said it was making their 360 show the red ring of DEATH, so is it a goo buy?
I bought mine AFTER I saw the ring of death so I don't know. I went through major issues with Best Buy after I saw my ring of death... then I miraculously figured out it worked fine in the vertical position, just not the horizontal. So it's been in the vertical position with the nyko think on it every since and it's worked fine for 6 months.
i have that on my xbox, it seams to work but its ALOT louder then the 360 is alone. about the red lights iv never gotten the ring of death (3 red lights) but i do occasionally get insufficient power warning (1 red light) but u just jiggle the cord and it goes back to normal.
EDIT: from above post mines always been in vertical so i donno maybe im jsut luckey iv never had ring of death with it
It is difficult to tell to what extent these coolers are improving the performence ..... lukasz_erecinsk
Teamxbox has a review on the product in which they measured the decrease in temperature when the intercooler was connected... Problems with the intercooler are derived from the fact that it sucks up power that the Xbox 360 needs.
[QUOTE="J-Lem"]how does it void your warranty if you just connect it to the back? Well anyways I just bought one and it seems to work pretty good and I like it.fore_runner
Just don't tell Microsoft that you're using one. yeah thats exactly what i was thinking. Unless there is a hidden camera inside of the Xbox or something to see if you connect something then how will they know?

Unless there is a hidden camera inside of the Xbox or something to see if you connect something then how will they know? the Intercooler has been known to leave black burn marks on the back of 360, and in some cases, it has melted the back of some consoles. if you use it, it's a gamble.
