Forums - Gaming - Best way to cool your consoles

I know some people here obviously are looking to cool down their console(s) in their entertainment center and dont want that pos intercooler thing.  I have found the solution, ok.. I didnt, the assistant manager at EB told me.  But it works great, they modded their 360 display to fit the cooler.

The cooler you will want to buy is the Antec Dual-Fan Laptop Cooler.  It can cool down a 360 by 10 degrees Cecilius.  All you have to do is plug it into a USB port.

 http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/Antec-Dual-Fan-Laptop-Cooler-75004/sem/rpsm/oid/89840/rpem/ccd/productDetail.do

You can pick it up at Circuit City and probably any real electronics/computer stores.

This will run you $30 - $40 USD.

Saw that a long time on Maxconsole, even compared to using it on a 360.

The Intercooler EX is not a P.O.S.

The original, yes was a little bit poorly designed, but the EX is wonderful, and with either, Nyko will replace your 360 if broken.

Oh, and BTW, I like my 360 Standing up :]

Well, The PS3 & Wii don't really have a big problem overheating do they?
At least, not like the 360...

"Back off, man. I'm a scientist."

Your theories are the worst kind of popular tripe, your methods are sloppy, and your conclusions are highly questionable! You are a poor scientist. Especially if you think the moon landing was faked.
