(3ROD) <----

bankrrupt?.. every thread u open u give money to lowyat.net?

I'm not trying to flame things up... just helping the community...
no hard feeling man...

U can check this link http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/727355
Wat dark saviour meant was that u should take a little
initiative to check from the topics instead of creating a new
thread. Trust me there are already a lot out there

have you tried the towel trick?
worked for my friend's xbox,for like 10 minutes

worked for 10 min??

do u mean the towel process takes 10 minutes

or

after doing towel thing,only can play for 10 min?

dont do the towel trick or the x clamp stuffs it will damage ur 360 mobo more,get it reballed.

the reason u say this thing???

as i know that the issue with 360 is the mobo flex when the gpu overheats so the xclamp is actually a support to not allow the mobo to flex over the limit and causing the mobo unusable.so if u remove the xclamp theres nothin there to limit the flex effext so u mobo will bcome keropok,and the towel trick is that u overheat the gpu and allow the mobo to flex even more just hoping tha t the connection between the mobo and gpu will contact. So towel trick and xclamp solution is a no no,reball is the next repair method and mod the fan.

Hello...
just want to ask ur opinion...
im in dilemma now....
im craving for Xbox 360.....since last march...but dont want to take the risk of 3rod...
instead of 360..i bought wii....
now the console is collecting dust...
wii games does not suit my preference...
now i am considering to buy the 60gb xbox 360...
but as i heard a lot of people got 3rod even it is falcon...
so considering to wait for jasper..but...
I CANT WAIT..ADE GAME BARU LIKE FABLE 2 N GOW 2..MANE BLH TAHAN...
of coz..im do not want to buy ps3 at the moment coz i always wanted the 360...
So is it worth to buy now or wait for the jasper(only god knows when it is available)...?

Don't wait,
Get it NOW & enjoy when you can.
If you do not want risk,
dont PLAY, Save your money.
3 Prod come, go see Tech 2.

if u dowan to lose much money buying a new console which eventually can 3rod just get a 3rod machine and get it fixed,dats what i did and just got the console 2 weeks ago and its still runnin fine i hope i can finish gears of war2,but the new falcon (i mean the latest 60gb falcon version) is nt so prone 2 3rod as the ram are already located on top of the mobo nt same like the old falcons where on top and bottom of mobo have ram chips,but its quite sceptical whether u will get the new improved mobo or not coz some new consoles sold are still using the old mobo so kinda risky but if ur a true gamer id say just go for it buy a 360 ur missing the best console gaming experience on any console made to date.

I sent to Tech 2 for Reballing, but as far as a i m concern, Tech 2 does not do reballing for xbox that did x-clamp before....

bcos console which have already done x clamp stuff mobo already warped how tech2 wana give 3month guarantee n warranty.

I understand your worries. My case is even funny, my Xbox360 hit by 3Rrod last 2 week but the wierd thing is that if I press the on button few times, then it is OK. Can play for few hours without a glitch. I also dunno what happan.

dat because u lucky,if once 3rod already i guess better dont on the console anymore better send it for repair,trying to on the console will result in more damage just my
2 cents la

You need to get the DVD Drive off of the GPU Heatsink so it doesn't overheat. To see how to do this go to Google and type in Airflow Cables

Dude, do you realize that the post you're replying are wayyyyyyyyyyyyy too old?

try overheating the xbox by blocking the ventilation at the back with paper or something and wait till the lights become 2 (overheat). and let it cool down for half and our,then switch on...works on my xbox and can play several hours after the trick...until now...haha
