Heat

[paintba||er]

Well where I live, it is 85° F right now. It usually gets about 20° warmer during the summer, and I live in a house from the 1800s and the way it is setup we can't put AC in. So it is already extremely hot in my house. Now I when I turn on my 360 I completely fry. I have a thermometer on this fan in my room, so I checked the temperature before I started playing my 360. It was 86°. I checked it again after I had finished playing my 360 for about two hours and the temp had risen to 92°. :yikes: So I don't even like to play my 360 anymore just because of the heat that thing puts off. Does anyone else feel the same?

It packs some heat but who cares, just open ya window or buy a fan

Edit:

Buy more fans

I have three fans including the ceiling fan and my window is always wide open during the summer. Its still hot as ****.

92 degrees isn't that bad for a console...... it's less than internal body temp.

Stick it in the freezer.

No, thats the temperature of my room not the console. I don't really care how hot the console gets since I have a warranty if it breaks anyway. It is the console heating up my room.

Not unless your a Mormon.

measure it again, but at a different time in the day. Or put a thermo in TWO rooms..compare the differences.

that 7 degrees could just be the day warming up.

I don't think so since I started playing at about 9 PM.

hm.......got a basement???? or just don't play 360 anymore. All I can think of atm.

Play in a bucket of ice. ok NOW that's all I can think of.

 

[paintba||er]

Nope, no basement. Hopefully I will get a PS3 soon to hold me off until it cools down a bit. I don't think they put off as much heat. At least I hope so.

 

[Brawny]

lol....I dunno about that. You're pretty much screwed

I'd say equal heat output. Just play in smaller segments?

sorry I don't have a hard and fast solution.

I have one of those little window AC things in the other room, but unfortunately it doesn't cool down my room. :sick:
