[quote=TTR Dr Payne;9363]also the 360 can easily be knocked over when standing up.

Theres only 1 USB port on the back of the console Bash And wth are you going to do with that many USB ports!?

Dude, quit fuçking bumping it. It has been 2nd or 1st on the page the whole damn time.

And WTF is up with you and TTR? Make a fuçking decision on your own, we've already given you advice, and he has already given you an answer.

I came from a Wii... which had overheating problems which lead to graphical tearing. The conclusion was basically the same as can be used here.

Don't use any cooling solution!

Why? Wouldn't you want to help keep your xbox alive longer?

And the simple answer is no! Xbox's shouldn't need any extra cooling. Plus if your XBox is defective to the point where it is going to fail down the road... don't prolong it. I'd rather it die while under warranty then extend the life and have it die down the road and out of warranty.

The bad thing about that is that it blows air into the console. :/ (I think it does?)

No it does the exact opposite it draws the air out of it and blows it out under the cooler itself. Which, when having the 360 stand on it is ideal to remove the excess heated air buildup that the fans don't reach. This heat is even hotter when the 360 is laying down as the metal under the motherboard has time to bake slowly away at it. And needless to say my picture out of the ones in the pictures post was the only one I saw standing. Even in the commercials its standing. Funny thing is (if you've ever had a laptop on your lap) most of the carpets were shag or thick. Great way to kill hardware.
