XCM Core Cooler 360

The XCM core cooler is a GPU cooling solution for the first generation of Xbox 360 consoles that are the most susceptible to the RROD also known as the red ring of death. There are two main causes of the RROD in 360 consoles, first is the fact they are using lead free solder which is known to be troublesome at the best of times, the second is heat which causes the lead free solder to crack and loose connection. If you are the owner of one of these first generation of 360 consoles and the unit is still working, we recommend installing one of these XCM 360 core coolers as a prevention against the RROD, the temperature on the GPU is significantly reduced once one of these core coolers is installed and so will offer a decent protection against the RROD. The other great use for these XCM core coolers is for professionals that repair the RROD, we know of one store that re-flows the GPU on the 360 to repair the RROD, they had a console there that they re-flowed 10x and it would only last 30min before the RROD would return, this is because even though they had re-flowed the solder and the GPU was making proper connection with the motherboard, they core issue that causes the RROD being heat was not addressed, they re-flowed the GPU for the 11^th time, but this time after they installed one of these XCM core coolers and the unit has been running fine ever since, when you do a RROD repair you really need to address the problem that caused the RROD in the first place, heat.

When consoles are sent back to Microsoft they will reflow the GPU or replace the motherboard and install a completely new heatsink as they also know you need to address the problem that caused the RROD in the first place, so whether it be you want to help prevent the RROD in your 360, or if you are a repair store fixing RROD consoles, installing one of these XCM core coolers addresses the heat issue and will help prevent RROD and in consoles that have been repaired, prevent it from coming back. Note these XCM Core cooler only work in first generation 360 Consoles without the HDMI port, if you are looking for a GPU cooling solution for the HDMI (falcon) 360 consoles, you need to buy the XCM Core Cooler 2, the v2 will also work on first gen models, but they cost a lot more and we think the v1 are just fine for the first gen consoles, but if you have a really troublesome console and want the best cooling possible for it, checkout the core cooler v2 as it’s a dual fan solution.
