Xbox 360 Noise Deadening Dynamat Part 1

In this video I'm showing how the 360 sounds booting up with sound coming out of my receiver reciever to show how quiet the console is compared to videogame volume. This is the console BEFORE I dynamat the DVD drive and interior of the xbox. Part 2 will be the 360 with the sound deadening material.

my xbox is almost as loud on dashboard, as playing a game.

do you think its dying?

I'm to afraid to leave it on more then 20 seconds, cus i don't want it to blow up.

its making some weird noises too

I couldn't guarantee that it's not dying but your best bet would be to get some air dust cleaner and blow air into the exhaust vents of your 360, make sure there's no dust or anything inside blocking the holes. Make sure the 360 is well ventilated when you're playing it and that's all you can do. Don't let it affect your game time. Are you not under warranty anymore?

If your REALLY worried, sell it and get a new one. My elite is quieter than my old 360.

noise is a sign that it will die

[arni0202]

that wouldn't make sense. The fan makes noise because it's spinning and moving hot air away from the 360, and the dvd drive makes noise because that is spinning at super fast speeds. My PS3 makes noise too. Neither are showing signs of dying.

i have an elite manufactured in JUly of 07 and it has a hitachi drive. It sounds exactly like that....but does instaling the insalation void the warranty?

[arni0202]

yes it does void the warranty %100. I wouldn't do it until that warranty is expired. This was a second hand ebay 360... lasted over a year before it fried on me. gamestop didn't know it was jacked up so they gave me a full trade in value for it lol

[nikeg34]

[lydellb]

Actually my friend sent his in because he had a disc reader error, and he says when he got it back he could barely hear it.
