New Xbox 360 torn down, shows we're all the same on the inside

4.3
A teardown of the new Xbox 360 announced at Microsoft's E3 press conference by iFixit showed some surprising non-changes to the redesigned system. Namely, the console still uses the storage, cooling fan and processing power from the current version of the system first announced in June 2010.

Among the changes made to the system (referred to as the Xbox 360 E), iFixit noticed that Microsoft updated the RF module and that "the absence of the power button backlight found in the Xbox 360 S is easily noticed." The redesigned console is available now for the same price as the existing models. We got a good look at the system ourselves at E3, albeit from the outside.

I'd rather stick with my 360S.

I still can't believe that the price was not lowered. You can't expect me to pay $200 for a console that is being outdated in a few months.

Let's reveal tons of info on our next gen console, and then attempt to make money with a new model for our old one, sure. That's not a good idea lol

You don't need a water cooler in a 360, it runs cool enough as it is


Yeah right that has to be a joke.

Had my console for 5 years now, no problem what so ever. You're doing something wrong.

I've never had an over heating problem with my xbox through all these years. You're obviously doing something wrong.


not really, Overheating is nearly the #1 problem with Xbox breakdowns


the only time ive had overheating problems with my 360 which ive had since 06 is it had a few years of dust in the fans i havent herd of overheating problems since the original 360s


Ive had my white 360 since '08 and Ive never had overheating problems, whereas my cousin got a 360S and it overheated after a year.


same here never had one problem but my cousin did


Ive also never had a problem because im not an idiot with my 360.


I have never had my xbox overheat either. I haven't know anyone's overheat also. I have had my xbox on for over three days without shutting it off. I wasn't at home and forgot about it.

Why did they say the new 360 would be quieter if the fan is still the same? Not a tech guru here but i know that a same fan produces the same noise.
