Xbox 360 Red Ring of Death

Theres a set of IIRC 6 chips on the back of the Mobo that microsoft neglected…

Anyways these are the cause of the RROD as they have really hardly any ventalation or heatsinks…

Basicly you take a stack of 3-4 pennies for each chip, wrap them in electrical tape then use thermal compound to stick them to each chip…

Like a ghetto heatsink if you will

these help keep the chips cool and hopefully prevent the rrod or at least from occuring as frequent as it would without it
