Guys, I just read this from Kotaku.

Kotaku Intercooler's Cruel Irony :

I never have Nyko intercoolers and I take whatever I read on the internet with grain of salt.

However I do remember from other post here that some of us are using Nyko intercooler.

Have fun... but be safe.

Best regards!

everyone here is aware of this problem...

yes, i've throw mine down the dustbin

mine already long2 time back inside the 360 box... might wanna frame it later and hang it on the wall

Mine already in pieces. Took the fans for another project.

That is a great idea...Never thought of that..will do the same too....

WOW, didnt know it was that serious.. Might think of taking it out later when I get home. :swt

^ HOLY JUMPING GRANOLA BARS...

quickly cabut it out

Just need to know, how long do you actually need to play the 360 before it actually overheats?

Eh, why so weird leh, I have been using it on mine for many moths, still okay wor. What gives? I have two 8 cm Thermaltake fans on the side but those should be okay as I modified them myself to be get the power from the USB port. So, should I make two more fans on the rear to replace my Nyko? I thought that Nyko is famous and leading one for providing high quality accessories across all consoles. Hmmmmmmm

And it happpen to be that they make a big mistake for this product....nobody perfect..i guess......

There's nothing wrong with my Nyko intercooler so I guess I'm not too bothered with people having melted or burnt power sockets as I always check my XBOX 360 from time to time and my XBOX 360 is connected through Belkin's surgemaster Gold series. Extra protection needed this powerful beast.

err..any1 wants my intercooler for 20 bucks?lol...
ive stopped using this loooong ago liao..after the first reported incident...sadly, that was just 3 weeks after i got mine from shumaky

bro shumaky!refund!!lolol..j/k

Nah, dun panic, please read the article below, taken from Gamepro website. Why panic, I have been using my Nyko intercooler for almost 4 months plus and not a single problem with it, I've checked it everytime. Chill people.

Nyko Addresses Xbox 360 Intercooler Problems

Because the fan peripheral saps its power directly from the Xbox 360, there have been concerns that the Intercooler 360 could cause damage to the console. Recent posts on some gadget blogs have shown Intercoolers discoloring and, in some cases, breaking Xbox 360s. Outside of images and testimonials, however, it's not known how many units could be affected.

Nyko notes that "a small percentage of all products suffer from defects," and that the Intercooler 360 is "less than half the average for consumer electronics products." Nyko is also pledging to replace damaged Intercooler 360s, as well as Xbox 360 consoles, "upon first-hand verification that the Intercooler 360 caused the system to fail."

The Intercooler 360 ($24.99) has shipped over 500,000 units, according to Nyko.

Thanks JKEC for the scary picture post (post #8). That sure looks interesting.

Cheers!!!

wow.. they would like to repair the console also..

SO what's a good intercooler??

I guess removing the casing and put the console directly underneath our ceiling fan will be the ultimate cooling solution
