oh and no you cannot transfer movies from your computer or jump/thumb drive to the 360 hard drive. you can play from them, but not transfer files onto the drive.

the one with the better games and online play is the better unit. its a video game system mutha fucka

yep it has blueray and more processing power

who gives a fuck about the processing power? thats just a bullshit numbers game. the only edge it has is blueray and a couple games like gran turismo... if you dont mind waiting for 5 fucking years. i cannot believe how hard they fuck their customers. the games done, they just want to wait until title sales are low.

oh, and for the record.

fuck fuck fuck

is there anyway to avoid the rrod? like it just seems like bullshit, its a gaming system, not like a computer that can get all mucked up n shit.

Oh contrair! Those game consoles are nothing more than specialized pc's, dood. They have processors, RAM, Hard drives, and video cards in them. They are just hard fixed to the motherboard instead of being removeable.

The problem is, they weren't built to be inside an entertainment center or cabinet like most people do with them. That's why they overheat so much and have issues. However, the Xbox's have a really shitty CPU cooler retention mechanism on them, and the motherboards warp. Just a shitty design, in that case.

I'll be adding a thermostatically controlled 110V AC fan to my new entertainment center soon. I'll put up a schematic with pics if anyone is interested.

Maybe you should utilize google & find out what intercoolers really do.

It's a brand of cooling device for the Xbox. Joo fail, retard.

i've had 4 360s.. 3 out of the 4 have had RROD. 3 out of 4 have had intercoolers on them.

the 4th, which I didn't put an intercooler on, didn't get the RROD.

Nyko’s Intercooler has been named a cause for Xbox 360’s “rings of death” (red lights that flash on your Xbox 360 console telling you that you’re screwed). Once these lights come on, owners usually have to contact Xbox support and send their consoles back in for repair.

Game World Industries contacted a couple different Microsoft customer service representatives to talk about the issue, both reps stated that the Intercooler causes problems for the Xbox 360. The first representatives stated that Nyko’s Intercooler drains too much power from the Xbox 360, which was manufactured with enough power to support only itself. The Intercooler drains a large amount of power when the console starts up, which causes certain components to not get the power they need to run correctly, which can then lead to the death of the console. The second rep stated that they had seen “scorch marks” on the console from the Intercooler – probably just dust. If you send in your Xbox 360 and these scorch marks are present, Microsoft will send you your console back untouched (The Intercooler is not a licensed Microsoft product). They did, however, recommend switching to Pelican’s fan stand, which connects to the console via USB.

hmm..

Now that is interesting. I wonder how true it is?

From my first hand experience.. seems to be pretty true.

Just google it.

I have heard this also, you would be much, much better off just using the xbox where it's well ventilated. Nyko products in my experience suck. I bought their rechargeable battery doodad for the 360, wouldn't charge. Took it back and the next two replacements also failed to charge.
