A much better chance it will never fail. If you get the cpu and the gpu reballed, add water cooling and add arctic silver 5 thermal paste (plus adding the x-clamp fix) then your xbox is good to go. They did a test on one website with the XCM fans and watercooling. With the XCM fans they got a bottom mobo reading of 119 F, and with the water cooling they got a reading of 76 F. I'd say thats a lot better.

Yeah you will get cooler temperatures with the water and also it will be alot quieter, but does it really matter. If you have the money to spare, the skills to do it yourself or get someone to buy it for you for christmas then i would probably get water cooling also, but for the price they sell them kits it's extortionate, its an overpriced water pump.

Do you need water cooling? not unless you live in an igloo and the xbox is melting your roof.

But of course that is just my opinion, and like arseholes, everybody has one Smile

You will have to forgive Darthbagger...he will not be happy until there is nothing left of the original innards of the 360.Hey Darth please post a picture of your highly modified 360 so everyone can see how much you have modded yours. Oh wait you really havent??? You just like to tell people to do it so they will screw up thier system and have to buy a new one?? I truly believe Darth is working for Microsoft! Laughing

Well I have upgraded thermal paste and x-clamp fix on my gpu. I also have a red tallismoon whisper fan. I also have the XCM core cooler I just don't have it in my xbox anymore because its so loud. I just don't have the clear case. The ghost case that I ordered is still on back order so I don't have it yet.

Just me rebel I'd love to mod my xbox like crazy but I always spend my money on games instead of mods. If i had a month or 2 where no good games came out I'd be set.
