Hey guys,
I'm making this topic so that we can see if the falcon motherboard is really reliable?

If you answer to the poll please put the following info in your message:
1. What's your room temperature,
2. and how long your gaming sessions are.
3. What is the manufacture date of your 360 (or the date that you bought it).

EDIT:
could you also say if your xbox did have a RROD. thank you

1. decent....basement is cool but carpeted. My 360 is on a shelf that is somewhat tight spaced, but has enough room to breathe.


2. range from 30 mins to 3 hours


3. Manufacture date is Jan 08, when i bought it (purposely looked for the most recent Manufacture date)

I'd hope so...360's don't die THAT fast. My 360 is way older than the falcons and it's fine.

Never stand your xbox vertically, it blocks the biggest vent in the system which is at the bottom. It will also heavily increase your chances of disc scratching.

I've gone many long nights with my 360, mostly CoD4 lasting up to 8 hours...same for NHL08 and 09. Got mine in Jan 07.
