Title: Koolance XBOX 360 kit now in production...
Post by: andy[tek] on June 26, 2006, 10:12:17 AM
Has anyone seen this? I have an 360 and the noise bugs the hell out of me, most of it comes from the drive though! Im tempted to buy one, but out the window goes the ms warranty just to keep my ears from bleeding

$389 dollars for something that adds a huge box on top of your xbox360, no thanks!

There is an article which looks at it in closer detail.

Thats a lot of cash.

I would be interested to see how many of you would buy a 360 watercooling kit for say Ã,£80.  :-)

maybe in a years time or so when the warrenty runs out  :lol:

only problem i see with yours is that you have to have the console standing on its end rather than laying it down (as you have to in a tv stand unit)

although tbh the noisest thing in my xbox is the dvd drive...  :?

I just wish there was someway of making the driver quieter.

Pauls attempt looks better, i bet if he sorted out some bits etc I bet his would look better and work just as well for cheaper.

Are you planning on making them?

btw, are you XboxXpert or something like that on XboxScene?

No Im not XboxXpert

Ive been thinking of making one. If I did it would all fit into the xbox case and wouldnt be like my passivly cooled one.

Im still deciding but I might just make a waterblock for the 360 instead.

The trick will be routing the tubing and where to put the connectors because of the capacitors close to cpu.
