Yeah, I'm looking for something similar too.

I know Tech2 selling some china made intercoolers. maybe if he's willing to mod it to ue external power.....

Bleh dikatakan take de siape kat MY jual brg nih.

We're bolehland rakyat~! guys~! show sumthin~!

I tried to ask once...but the postage fee is 3 times of the thing itself....

Just brough 2 stupid CPU fan an a cheap IPod charger....Wanna complete it and dangle to my 360 tomorrow

I don think he will sell anything that is not proven to work....

Don't you see you already have a way to MAKE MONEY?!

Since no one selling, i decided to make it my own:-





So far it work well, the air gushed out is warm and the disc is luke warm after 2 hrs of test run.

in case you didn't see it, the side gap is covered with cello tape.

I'm using fan from Lowyat plaza. RM8 per piece

yeah, they are 60mm. they are louder than standard but TV sound will easily overrun it. That white adapter is RM15 iPod charger.

It's primary function is to calm my pathetic 3RRoD phobia.

The air gush out can be felt by hand, the vent at the back no longer warm and the hot spot (There's a marking already on the hot spot) is no longer hot. It works for heat dissipation, I dunno if it works for 3RRoD.

One BIG tips for you.

The 3rd fan beside the console should be located at the vent holes infront of the HDD enclosure. after measuring the wind speed by using a small cloth, the vent has the strongest wind entrance.

Blowing that sopt directly and the air will not even reach the heat point.....

You only cool the external shell and not the board itself.....I wonder the heat variance will cause faster 3RRoD problem if the heat variance internal & external too high...

Yes, most of the cool air entered through that part. It might be super ugly but if it helps...who care????

and Tech2 told us that Jasper set still have 10~15% 3RRoD cases in short period of time.

No,

I do not want to use ANY power from the system.

The more you take power from the console, the havier the load for the fragile little power brick that is one of the reason for 3RRoD.

you din follow the thread properly....i mean the vent infront of HDD enclosure

evercool xfan is a toy... the airflow is not even strong enough compared to DIY fan.

You all can do a radical mod for this--Internal watercooler and someone in xboxexpert.com did it. Look at the customised waterjacket~!

GOOD~! I'll go & have a look for it.

wah~! btw....how strong is the air flow?

RM140 I can get a game already....

i tot wanna get it @ RM70 or less...

however, this is Intercooler TS or EX?

My urge & adranaline rush to get one is over....

bacause I've known the ultimate root cause of 3RRoD which is related to heat but it has no way to cure except re-engineer the GPU chip.

Anyone who want to know what happened to our GPU may search google for nVidia G70 GPU failure. The problem is the same scenario to our xbox360 GPU failure.... nVidia repeated the failure that happened since year 2005 to M$.

Someone told me that a batch of PS3 Malaysia /w 65nm chips somehow suffer the similar problem by a symptom of "failed to start after certain time interval", anyone to clarify this?

I tried that and they refused to ship to Malai-Siah

no, the one selling in GH is Intercooler TS, compatible to all xbo360 as it's using independant power source.

This is real on a "controlled environment", not in you house....so the result might be different, just like you'll never get the quoted fuel consumption on your car if you drive to work in rush hour everyday.

Fan sharing the same power itself will not damage the console. The thing that damaged the console on the old Intercooler EX is the inferior quality of the connector. causing the connector to be melted onto the console & damage the console's one & only only power interface not to mention your console scream for more juice by showing 3RRoD when the power is not stable due to intercooler's problem.

But do remind that intercooler sold in GH is the one using external power. The Intercooler TS.

Example of the damage of old intercooler is like this :-



If you're microsoft engineer, will you approve RMA for this thing? My guess is a good no.

Please do you further research on Google and also Wikipedia.

...I tot anyone know that...

But how'd you explain the scorching on the power socket?

The reason for 3RRoD & unable to start is unstable current output after the power is passed on from that intercooler.

No unfortunately

I stripped my self made cooler after I realized it does not help the root cause of it. LOL
