Just took delivery of my 360 cooler

[Gel]

I have a heat problem with my console, I fit it in a cabinet with not a lot of airflow, play Burnout for and hour and it sounds like an aeroplane.

So I bought one of these from www.gamestop.com



Talk about sexy and quiet!

I ordered it Wednesday evening ($20 + $16 shipping = £20 GBP)
It turned up without any duty this Friday (less than 2 days later).

Great amount of airflow, it sucks air through the machine and out the back....I reckon I can make it even more efficient by doing a proper seal where it joins the xbox.

Am dead impressed with it and I'm a picky fucker.

Thanks for the link, I've been after one of these.

I can confirm the xbox fans don't speed up like before and you can feel the air being sucked through the top and bottom vents.

Lots of warm air coming out of the back of the cooler which can only be a good thing.

does the 360 sound louder with the cooler attached?

[TheFincher]

Im getting one of these............ especially at that price

looks good fancy one of them

No noticeable noise increase...especially if you take into account the 360 fans don't speed up.

Can't comment on those not in an enclosure though, my setting for it has very poor airflow.

also note on the auction it states "Please allow up to 28 days for delivery as brand new stock item."

meaning? he is importing them as you buy them.

[Gel]

Just buy them from Gamestop, it got here in less than 2 days.

I ordered mine yesterday when I saw your post (thank you) and it shipped yesterday too. Nice one

[harryb]

cool, i may buy one of these as im about to mount my lcd on the wall and want everything hidden away so my room is a lot tidier.. offtopic but anyone know where i could get a tilted bracket set for a dell w26000?

[Gel]

Don't know matey but if you want my cooler for £18 delivered then you can buy mine.

I just spent the weekend having a move about and improved the airflow in my unit so I now have it spare.

[harryb]

possibly take u up on that then.. but.. does the unit just take power from the xbox? can't deal with more wires

[Gel]

Yes buddy, cooler goes between the psu and the 360, nice and clean as it will only turn on when the 360 is on.

[Chubbs]

I've been asked to pay an extra £16.60 for customs - is this right?

[Gel]

Not when you are paying £12 for the item no, it's not right.

[Chubbs]

UPS fiver vat, 11 handling charge through customers - wankers

[Gel]

I got mine from UPS without customs.
Dispute it mate, even quote me if you like.

There is no import duty on items of that value, the item has to be worth £20+ I think.
