Hello guys!

This is my first x360 cooling mod: HERE

And now, this is the second:

Today I made this mod because I like silent and cool box smile.gif Thermaltake Tide Water Plus is a complete solution for this. The external unit is looks good and is small. The efficiency of the system is very good. A box with original cooling freezed in every ten minute and the red ring appeared, now is working perfectly long-long time. I put hetasinks on the rams, below 3 mm cooling paste, so the metal case is coolong the rams under.

I might end up doing this. Its very cheap for a water cooling device and is in a compact case. Also comes with the heatsinks for the memory. Great find man!!! Were did you buy it?

R u still running the fans? And what cooling paste did u put on the bottom of the memory? I think that model(Thermaltake Tide Water Plus) is fairly new. Im going to some research and find the cheapest one.

I would also prefer to have it inside but this is the cheapest and best looking solution I have seen. I am using the xbox mainly as an extender and have been trying to lower the noise for some time now and I have not been able to lower it to 25dB with standard fans.

Could you maybe take some more picture of where you get the power from? How many hours have you tested it?? And how did you test it?? We are 4 persons very interested in trying this so please give us all the information you have :-)

When the external HDDVD comes out, you should rip out the drive and put that thing inside it. smile.gif

is there anyway we can see temp readings to see how effiencient this alternitive is...and judging on size this is highly possible to make internal....or atleast i could take out the fiberglass one more time and create an "addon" type sleve to the upper half of the case...how much water is circulated through this system also...and how often do you refill...just a few techincal questions i have

In the first step, I dismantled the device and installed the system. After this step, I checked but I was dissatisfied with the result because not only the GPU and CPU get hot but the rams and capacitors as well. The thermaltake radiator gets so fuckin’ hot the it can’t deliver the required performance inside the machine. When the unit was outside the machine, with an average of 8 degrees were the cpu and gpu colder.
