Cut a big hole in one side and stick a 120mm silent fan on the side extracting hot air. Then replace the two rear fans with some silent ones too. I would imagine this would significantly aid cooling with the easiest possible mod.

I could be very wrong though - it has been known!

Very bad idea, the side fan should be blowing inwards.

are the fans at the back blowing outwards then? I guess if they are then your right it should blow inwards.

Well... they're supposed to but they don't really push much air =/

didn't think any were out of warranty yet - at least not for RROD anyway :confused:

Nice TV stand btw

ive had mine since release, got the rrod error jsut before ms announced the extended warranty and after my original warranty had ran out so i ripped it open, stuck some arctic silver 5 on the cores and it's been running fine ever since lol

the stand is for my center speaker lol, its part of an old ironing board i harvested

I've always wondered - I have a PS3 and I love the controller, just not for certain games - is there any way you can mod a PS3 controller to fit inside the 360s?

So you could effectively have a 360 controller that works on a PS3 including tilt?

Yes, not easily though but the internals do fit.

Yes!

Why doesnt a third party do that! I'd buy one!

probably because the designs are patented.

I'd love one of those!
