Shuraim Ahmet 29 Posted November 10, 2014 Hey guys I've noticed that despite the fact I've set the temp threshold to 60 for all 4 in dashlaunch yet my gpu and memory temps are going above 60 and even touching 70 in some cases so far I think there might be something wrong with my fan (tho i can still hear it quiet as loud as before) or there maybe some dust accumulation. For now I've placed it on my laptop cooling pad and connected it to my xbox's usb port but I need a permanent solution and Can I use blower to clean it without opening it I mean putting the blower on the vents.?

I wouldn't do that no... i would take it apart and use pressurized air (often referd to as "dust off" or similar) this is by far the best way to clean electronics from dust What model of Xbox 360 do you have? it might be normal that it goes above the temps you've set, but 10+ above isn't normal...

Swizzy 2085 Posted November 10, 2014 I've phat console with falcon chip Gopro edition of 2008. Then yes, it's somewhat common for the temperatures you're seeing, the fans can only do so much... The problem is mostly the fanduct, it's not a good solution from microsoft... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dr.Gonzo 392 Posted November 10, 2014 The thermal paste may be dried in the time. An exchange is useful after the long running time. Be careful when you remove the XClamps. It is not uncommon that you will damage your Xbox 360, if you're not carefully. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
