xbox 360 noise is always loud.... thanks to the screaming DVD drive.

If you add additional cooling fan the noise is even louder.... sweat.gif

u mean the size of the hdd?
arcade set 256mb , others 60 GB and 120GB?
*
New arcade build in 256MB flash memory, old arcade using 256MB or 512MB memory card.

20GB above is HDD and frankly to enjoy the most of xbox360 you should get the Pro set.

The only obvious reason to get arcade set FOR NOW is it's using Jasper motherboard which is the latest revision.

You have to bear with the sound OR DIY a water cooling setup for your beloved xbox 360 then add dampening material to the DVD drive.

Whr to find the hardisk holder to put in Jasper HDD ?

You do not need one. You just shop for a xbox360 hard disk.

No, i think mine was Falcon, er no A/C, A/C are useless  hmm.gif  unless its a refrigerator..
Well, it's not hot and no sound except for Naruto Broken Bond.. it always appear unplayable disc.. (play 3 hour top). i didnt install to HDD.. + i always placed my console on top of cushion or some soft stuff..
*
fridge temp will cause condensation..will cause more problem...
it won't be very hot, bu the sign is when the disc is warm when ejected....
A silent xbox is an indication of the BenQ drive. the fastest & most silence among all.

QUOTE(Hisyam91 @ Jan 6 2009, 06:52 PM)
Um, can explain a bit detail?
So, even if the unit come with a Falcon revision power supply, the console is actually jasper?
*
The Jasper can be spotted with checking the ampere rating and the power connector

The system still hot when you pack it back and box material is obviously not heat conductive.....

That's why...

no, The base did not take much air actually but instead the vent infront of HDD enclosure.

I think vertical position is recommended...jsut look at NXE loading logo & the on/off logo

as i can see inside that the xtra gpu sink is at the base of the console wont vertical affect air circulation at the gpu sink.
*
The sink that you see cannot affect by air from side as the fins in orientated towards the exhaust fan.

Is that clear? hmm.gif

in that case, i'll just have to wait until microsoft release the new update or wait for proof that nxe doesn't cause 3rod.

Only small percentage hit the problem so you might be spared from the 3RRoD after update. icon_idea.gif

Good for you.
If im not mistaken,
If you registered a new account, a free 1 month trial Gold membership LIVE will be given.
It does not apply to console, so you can create as many account as you wish for free 1 month.

Without HDD, i think you can play online game normally,
But i'd suggest going for Jasper Pro since it's already out.
*60gb

Games need Update, and add-on that may be up to 500mb.
256mb isnt enough.
*
IF i'm not mistaken, you may create up to three(3) accounts with free 1 month Gold subscription and after that no more cheese for you.

Without HD you can go online but you'll have problem if update is needed to play a game. Some games requires update to proceed to online multiplayer....
