guys, i just bought myself a Intercooler TS yesterday. Being waiting for this thing for quite a while, it's expensive, but i kinda like it. Here's my findings so far :
Pros: - It's a quality product..the materials and packaging used are of quality...and the Intercooler fits perfectly - Powerful fan..it moves lots of air, there's no doubt about it. My whole room smells of the innards of the Xbox - Nice design, in my opinion Cons: - Tempsmart is a gimmick..it only have 2 speeds, which are OFF and ON LOUD! I was hoping for a auto variable speed thingy. - It's expensive (in Malaysia) . I guess it's a non-issue for the US - It's LOUD (but that is expected) So far i'm quite happy with it |

QUOTE(wilsonjay @ Mar 1 2009, 05:33 PM) temperature display? you meant the temperature of the xbox itself? no..but it does feel cooler. Had tested it this afternoon in my room, without switching on the aircon..it does feel cooler.Added on March 1, 2009, 5:49 pm QUOTE(gunblade @ Mar 1 2009, 05:33 PM) This post has been edited by Alphawolf: Mar 1 2009, 05:49 PM |

QUOTE(kane_WWE_07 @ Mar 1 2009, 08:24 PM) So how cool is it? like when you touch at the bottom of the xbox 360 do you still can feel the heat or room temp? ok, let's say my room (ambient) temperature is pretty warm, with no air-con on, then the xbox's left side (if it's vertical) would be very slightly warm to the touch. It does feel SLIGHTLY cooler than without the Intercooler.The question remains whether it is really effective in the long run, if you can stand the noise it generates |

QUOTE(kane_WWE_07 @ Mar 2 2009, 02:14 PM) ok thats great! when will it start to spin the fan?and will it continue until you finish your gaming time? or will it stop once in a while? it will start around 3 minutes after i turned on the Xbox (it depends on your ambient temperature)...then it would stop a few minutes after i switched it off. I heard from some people on the net that it continues to spin 10+ minutes after the Xbox had being switched off! but it, again, depends on a lot of factors Added on March 2, 2009, 5:19 pm QUOTE(kane_WWE_07 @ Mar 2 2009, 02:14 PM) ok thats great! when will it start to spin the fan?and will it continue until you finish your gaming time? or will it stop once in a while? oh yeah, forgot to answer one of your queries. yes, in my case it will continue to run during the gaming session, at the same full speed, hence the noise. i guess if your room is really cold it will shut down once the temperature in the xbox equalizes with the ambient temperature, but it never happened to me so farThis post has been edited by Alphawolf: Mar 2 2009, 05:19 PM |

QUOTE(defaultname365 @ Mar 2 2009, 05:25 PM) I might get it, but I am so unsure about how effective it is or just continue using my own custom fans... For me it's loud, because it's very close to me, beside my pc. My LCD is being shared by my PC and Xbox. But when i am playing games i would not have noticed the noise. However, if you put it somewhere far in the living room or in a cabinet, it shouldn't be much of a bother. But during the quieter moments the noise would be noticed.it's effectiveness is debatable..but it does extract a lot of air...so it should be doing it's job . If i were in your shoes, if your custom made fans are doing it's job, there's no reason to get this. I bought it because i don't have any custom fans and had being waiting for this product for quite a while How loud is loud ? Is it loud as to "need to increase sound volume of TV?" |

QUOTE(LaminatedButterfly @ Mar 2 2009, 06:01 PM) hey bro..yeah i realized it was you haha..was actually thinking bout it before you mentioned as my xenon died after3 months..so you know there's still the issue of paranoia haha..so you think i should give it a pass?? or should i just get one to be save? Yes, exactly, i'm paranoid too...but since we now have original sets, at least we can claim warranty in SGP..albeit with some difficulty.Oh and we still for co-op tonight right? It's really up to you man on whether to buy it or not yeah, tonight at 11pm right? i can't play for too long, but am happy for a few rounds of adventures. see you back at Sera |
