XBOX 360 mod Microsoft wants hidden

**LaughingMAN.S9** · 10-28-2011, 02:57 PM

is every member of this forum completely souless and devoid of a sense of sarcasm? lol wtf is wrong with you people? 100 years from now when his 360 is still running strong and humanity has long died out, we'll see who gets the last fucking laugh....

THE CYBORGS.

I think the Sunnyvale420 and skaar need to get their heads together and fix one of these bad boys up together. Just think about it, a xbox in a freezer with a fan resting on it! That thing would work FOREVER!!! And you would save a bundle on air conditioning in the summer. Your heat bill might go up a little, but you can cover for that because you wont need to keep spending 40$ ever other week on a new xbox. This is genius!

What's funny is that, if you really think about it, "put it in the freezer" isn't any worse than all the other clownshit remedies people have used in the past to fix their broken games, some more successful than others.

Thanks for the appreciation! It is pretty sweet, I must say

As for the weed... I'm glad you don't smoke, fahlim003. It makes it cheaper for the rest of us.

And to skaar: I owe you an apology. That is a decent mod you got there, sorry I was so harsh.

I think someone is farming for meseta.

You might be saving that 40 bucks on buying another 360 for weed, but you're going to be burning more electricity to keep it in your cryo chamber. I'm also sorry that you feel that your day isn't complete w/o playing L4D. A crap shooter is crap.

This totally doesn't deserve to be hidden in OT. I WANT THE WHOLE OF INTERNETS TO SEE THIS.

Never have been able to discern WTF to do with meseta... besides send PM's I guess. I hear tell of pretty lights and name changes, but I have only 'bank yer meseta' or 'take a loan' links in my CP.
You're point about my power bill stands; I'll add a piece of insulation-covered plywood in the hole. Thanks!
As for calling L4D crap, listen, buddy, moderator or no, them's fightin words!

And thanks for the bump to modern gaming. It's nice to see my work is being appreciated.

Let's go with that.

What about mineral water cooling? PC guys have been doing it for ages. Pure water does not conduct electricity, the contaminates in the water do. If you could get absolutly pure water, you technically COULD submerge your XBOX in it. Also, ever consider water cooling PC setup for it?

Mineral water is anything but pure water.

In any case, pure water would only stay pure for a little while. It wouldn't be long before it became contaminated with impurities such as dust and metals. If you are going to submerge electronics in liquid, you are better off using mineral oil. http://www.pugetsystems.com/submerged.php

Would that be a Microsoft laptop?

**Sabz5150** · 10-30-2011, 09:06 AM

So the 360 guys have to make a decision between their console burning down and their house burning up?

Dunno what's funnier... this or the fact that its tolerated. Buy another one? And we wonder where all the money went.

I wonder if the "720" will require a dewer of liquid N2 to avoid a kiloton explosion.

Dammit. I was really hoping those links would take me to a porn site.

A very big BOO to you sir.

Maybe games should still come with instructions afterall?

I hear throwing your 360 in a tub of icy water and then jumping in after it helps fix all kinds of problems.

**VertigoProcess** · 10-30-2011, 06:03 PM

Lot of hating goin on towards the end of this thread...

If I had to dip my car in liquid nitrogen to make it to work every day, I'd have some pent up hatred, too.

**8-bitNesMan** · 10-31-2011, 12:09 AM

Is this real life? Is that Xbox gonna be like that forever??

Would playing "White Rabbit" at the loudest level possible also help fix the problem?

Well, I jumped the gun in proclaiming this a great mod. Surprisingly, it overheated. I'm currently working on something with freon lines sandwiching the motherboard... I dunno. I'll get back to you all when I do. Thanks for all your support and ideas, and sorry if you implemented this already

**Gameguy** · 11-01-2011, 09:30 PM

Isn't the problem with overheating that the board starts to warp and eventually the solder joints get loose from the flexing between hot and cold? What if you just don't let it cool down? Keep it in the oven instead.
