To be honest, after reading online... the one's that suffer the ring of death, seem to be lacking thermal paste over the processor... So it isn't losing / distributing the heat like it should!

There was a guy who got one, then opened it up, covered his CPU in paste and it got rid of his red lights.

if your xbox 360 has survived a long enough time, it'll continue to be fine.

My 360 is coming up 2 years old so it's well over due it's fuck up

never had a problem with my 360 premium, had that for over a year, and still havent had a problem with my elite. :)

I was told that all 360's would be shipped with the 60nm Chips in the new year, although I haven't seen any evidence to support this

not sure tbh

all early elites didnt have 60nm pretty much the same setup as the existing 360s

They have better graphics too :rolleyes:

im looking at getting an elite, but have they changed to 60nm chips yet? And have they solved the over heating issues?


Also, anyone seen the cheapest place to buy one? So far Costco's are selling them for £289.99 (controller, cables, no games though), which is about the cheapest i've seen it so far....

elites should now have the 60nm chip, dont think they suffer from the overheating problems of the old ones

Anyone got one yet? are they just like the old 360 getting ring of death non stop ect?

Payday on friday so was thinking about going out and getting one as i miss the good old xbox360 and forza :(
