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.

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.


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.

Wagering I don't know why someone would buy a new 360 for $300, when they can wait a few months, save up $200 more and buy the Xbox One...


The Xbox 360 E is 300 pounds, not dollars!


the xbox one is 300 dollars dumbass for a 250 gb

Slim wasn't that bad of a console although it was equivalent to a heater.

I don't really see the point in buying a new Xbox.
