kn said: I don't know if anyone caught the pictures of the falcon board, but the X clamp is replaced by heavy duty screws. That combined with the secondary heat sink removing more heat probably means the RROD problem will be *signficantly* reduced. How significant? Time will tell but I bet they have it down close to average failure rate of electronic products overall... I'm on a "second heat sink" unit but I don't think it is a Falcon. It is a late July manufacture. It is quiet and produces quite a bit less heat than my first unit. Note my first unit didn't RROD... The DVD drive failed. For those on the fence, find a falcon with an HDMI and jump in. You have a 3 year warranty. You are missing out on some amazing games while you sit. Even though I was irritated with my 360's failure, I am still happy I bought it. Gears, Oblivion, Halo, PGR4, and so on are just mocking you as you sit on the sidelines... |
what kind of failure ??? and what did they fix on your console ???
