i have one of the older 360s and it's overheated and been repaired twice already. So i've considered to get an aftermarket cooling system but which should i get???
I've had one on my older Xbox 360. That Xbox 360 has always had a problem with games crashing until I added the Nyko Intercooler.

Only problem I had with the Intercoolers is that the right fan would burn out. So, I think their life time is... maybe 3-5 months? Anyways, if you already have problems on that Xbox, these coolers dont fix it, they only cover it.
