Xbox 360 Cooling Mod - $10 & 15 min for an efficient, cheap, easy & quiet mod

A quick, cheap and easy mod to cool your microsoft xbox 360. You'll need about $10 and 15 minutes to do it. It's not pretty or fancy or anything, but it does the job of cooling well. It's small and super quiet, and you won't need to do any modification to your xbox, no need to open it as well.
Now, note that the goal of this mod is to be dirt cheap, basic, easy and quick to build thingy. Not a nice elaborated mod. Please keep that in mind.

wouldnt it be better to take 12volts directly from the 360

that way there is no external power supply and the fans will spin faster

[thephiber]

@OhNoNotMyPenis 12V will make the fans spin faster, but they are also much much louder: too much for my liking. This is the reason why I did not use 12V. This was it's super quiet - just the way i like it. If you don't mind the noise or if you manage to get ultra quiet fans, then it sounds like a plan.

@marc0s1323 Hi, any computer shop.

@vze21gwa Why the hell would it do that?

[somerandomvideo]

I did this to my xbox once, and instead of bothering with a power brick, I just spliced up a USB cable and drew 5v from the Xbox 360 itself. Nice and tidy.

Won't throwing air into the xbox cause the RROD?

@thephiber This also won't void the warranty.

Im Going To Re Make This Video But Do It Internally And Have The Fans Running At 12 Volts
