When your heating the GPU which way do you put the fan on top of the CPU heating blowing into it or blowing outwards.

lol thnx Smile I overheated the GPU for 10 mins and on the 9th minute I got 2 red lights instead of 3 does that mean the overheating process went wrong?

The Smaller grey heatsink is really hot when i put my finger on it, though the other one doesnt seem to get much heat and it still gets 2 red lights hopefully it wont make any difference.

The 360 seems to be working fine now after some messing around with the screws and theres no fuzzy graphics like last time so hopefully all is well, gonna reassemble it now and catch up with friends on live wish my 360 luck lol.

It varies between consoles. Some are good forever, some die within a week. Best just to test yourself

I put the console in horizontal position turn on normally without playing for 1hour then after refreshing the console was working again.

For how long? Maybe 2 hours, I don't know cause I am selling it. Rolling Eyes
