QUOTE(defaultname365 @ Jan 1 2009, 10:24 PM) ... well, the GPU gets freakin hot after 1 hour... when you return the next day to play again, the hotness of the interior will again become freakin hot. If not played for more than a day, chances are, the 'thermal' will freeze... and when played again, the 'frozen' thermal will unfreeze again, and might just cause the GPU to move (or chances of moving slightly increases)... Just my theory. wow. GPU moving?

well.. for me.. i got the whole day to play.. waiting for result etc. Anyway.. I played 3 hours at a time.. Morning.. play 3 hours.. and let it cooldown for 3 hours.. Afternoon or evening.. 3 hours.. rest 3 hours again.. Night.. 3 hours.. and let it cooldown for the whole 8 hours.. So.. in total, I've played 9 hours a day, RROD free.. i think.. LOL

QUOTE(navigator @ Jan 2 2009, 02:50 PM) I think, he mean the GPU displaced.....  Yeah. The thermal paste + solder quality is so-so only on the 360. That is why the RRoD 'Squeeze-Fix' method works. And BTW, I meant 'minimum 1 hour a day' 360 should be turned on, everyday without fail. If left turned off for days, chances of getting RRoD increases dramatically. The thermal paste 'completely dries/freezes'. When you use it after a few days, the thermal paste starts to heat real quick from the state of completely dry - and causes the thermal paste to have small cracks which in turn, give 'slightly' higher than usual GPU temps that cause RRoD.

Mine same, but it's like 3 days not on only.... But if that's the case, itsn't it the system should show only overheat a.k.a 2RoL???? The digital backbone basically still intact right?

I had left the stupid USB intercooler plugged into the usb of my old xbox and it was running. USB is powered even though the console is not turned on, unless you switch off the mains.
After a few weeks of not playing the xbox, I turned it on and the console went RROD.
