Blue Xbox




Here is another box I just recently did over the July 4th weekend I have added to my collection. All parts were bought from local stores. I added the additional fan for overheating prevention. I recommmend that all Xboxes going through modding should atleast get an extra fan to prevent the dreaded RROD (Red Ring of Death) which has killed alot of consumers Xboxes. I have fixed several RRODs and whenever I have fixed them I strongly suggest that they get the extra fan so that they have a less chance of overheating again.. without the extra fan added you are only asking for a return of the RROD and more problems from your box.

Iron Mask’s x360phat






IronX360

IronX3602

After many hours of trial, success and failure.  I have completed the way I want my x360 to look, feel and sound.  Many thanks goes out to the friends who helped encourage me to get mine completed after learning by mine to produce their x360’s to look and feel the way they wanted as well.  A learning experience and thrilling reward after sitting back and enjoying a nice game of Crysis 2.  Next up I will be doing some stuff to the x360 slims.  I now have one in my possession and am currently in thought of how I want this lil’ hot mamma to look and feel.. instead cook and peel because these slims throw some heat off their compacted shells in comparison to the x360phat designs.

So stay tuned and check out some of my older posts and stages of how I went through the xbox360 modding experience.

 

Peace

Mr. NiTTi’s Xbox 360 Mod



 

Xbox360 Modded by IronMask–NiTTi360_God Of Mods

 

This is an Xbox360 I modded for my friend… it was mainly intended for better cooling to prevent the infamous RROD.. but I think I may have just gotten myself a little carried away!

Would like to hear about any suggestions the viewers might have in improving the system in different ways, like lights, cooling, etc.
