in which case either a or b the xbox will still get 2 hot because their going to cut cooling for less noise and their simply assuming the 65nm will bleed less heat but thats not true if they slow the fan down..


i think they should


A: leave the current loud ass fan in their but make the HS have a copper core like the P4 days

B: have a copper core cooler and just put a nice quite high cfm fan in their
Yeah, and if they do that you know they won't be able to keep the price competitive with the Wii (£159.99 for the Arcade - Wii is £179.99).

Microsoft is only JUST making a profit on the 360, but it's like $4 a console or something ridiculous like that.
