	There were loads of images of the inside of the Xbox 360 on google but it looks like Microsoft have either told people to take them down or shut the sites that had them on down... But i do know that the Xbox 360's triple core processor and R600 GPU get very very hot, alot hotter than a PC would seeing as the case is half the size of a PC case its more compact producing more heat, water cooling would be perfect for the Xbox 360... The 360 currently uses a heat pipe to cool the processor which is probably the best thing they could use fans wouldn't cool it. ------------------- Xbox 360//Playstation 3

	I've read up and the 360 uses 2 60mm fans and a water-cooled heat sink with no fan assembly on a 90nm chip.. no wonder they have heat problems.

	quote joshthegreat So long as your 360 isn't crowded and is fairly well vetilated at the back, it shouldn't be a problem what so ever. thats all to worry about. i have one made in the first batch of October 2005 (second hand unit) and it hasnt screwed up once. i have it standing vertically, and there is nothing anywhere near the fans or the vents. the closest thing to the fans is the wall, which is 6 to 8 inches away. thats what needs to happen in order for the fans to have enough dump room. or, liquid nitrogen This message was edited by shinobi_razor on Oct 28 2006. ------------------- Working on: Fable 2, Fallout 3, Gears of War 2

	Hell, if your 360 does die on you, there's always other uses for it.
