The powerpack and airflow

Hi guys.

Recently moved my furniture in my bedroom around including my xbox and i am a bit concerend about air flow, the back of the xbox has about 18cm to let air out , is this enough?

Also my powerpack has hardly any space, does it need to have some air getting to it?

BTW recently got my xbox 360 back from repair so it has the new heatsink, take that into account.

Cheers

Well if you can figure a way to create more room, you might as well do it. Mine has about a foot of space behind it, and the powerpack has about 5 inches on each side of it (one side being close to the 360, other being the side of the TV stand).

re: The powerpack and airflow

guess it depends how you stand it as well?horizontal or vertical.if its horizontal you wont have to worry about the bottom been tight, or the sides really, just make sure there is space at the bck, i think 15cm is enough, i thought mine was alot less than that but upon looking its where the printer should be on my desk and it has a gap so thats pretty handy i guess

My, powerpack basicly has the whole floor to itslef(lucky bugger). But it should have some decent space.

re: The powerpack and airflow

ya know the power brick doesnt have a fan or any air vents, so giving it "room to breathe" wont make a difference. only thing about it is just to not pile up crap on it, so the heat can dissipate through the plastic. thats the only thing. as long as it doesnt have stuff touching it, it will be fine.

the 360 however does need room to breathe in the back. there should be nothing within at least 5 inches behind the vents.
