I had mine for a week now, played 5 hours per day (average), i let it run while resting after playing or had a lunch. The heat is quite a lot, but it is stable. I never played in air-conditioned room, and it is quite hot in afternoon, but it keep running.

Places where the heat is noticeable:
-back of the console (blower)
-place between the DVD-tray and switch

I can feel my room is hotter when playing it...I think i'm prepared for 3ROD....BRING IT ON!

This is my Xbox360.

I just play it using 8 year 15" monitor .....will get LCD and component TV Box later....

Is this enough to say that it is a Falcon 360? On the Power Supply is written as 175W.

As you can see (picture below) the hot air is blown to the power supply cord, and that wire can be very hot....

If my 360 fail, then it would be a PS3 as my next console.

It's modded, but i have the ori firmware as well.

ATTENTION TO EVERYONE!, I have experienced some freezing issues with my 360! It is Falcon, and it's confirmed as a Falcon. Freeze happened today at around 11.30pm (no picture since i'm quite panick at that time) while playing Assasin's Creed. The machine just froze, no glitch, just froze. I restart the 360 (by turn off power button), start it up again and i play until about an hour then i stop because feeling sleepy. Tomorrow i'll to test more thoroughly whether it is experiencing 3ROD symptoms. I have posted my picture of 360 at earlier page in this topic (just in case you want to see), it is a Falcon 360. Hopefully it's just the DVD.
