So what the heck is the new fan suppose to do?

[nintendokid]

1) If the new fans do help with overheating, I'm going to have to wait...although, I keep it all inside everyday when I think of all the Ghost Recon AWF I could be playing, not to mention upcoming GoW.

2) If all the new fan does is help with the quietness (or should I say lack of), then screw it! I want to buy a 360 this fall.

By the way, when are the new fans coming out?

Im guessing you are talking about a cooling fan? aside from being quieter im also guessing it will help with some of the over heating problems people have reported.

The new fan will definetly keep it cool, it just might be a little too big.

Here's the sample.

Why is there a plug on the face of that fan? It can't work, can it?

This is the first I've heard of this... I heard about the smaller processor but never heard of this 'new fan'.

Well that doesn't do us owners any good.

Well that doesn't do us owners any good. QFT. Maybe if you have a 2-year warranty at BB, you can replace your console when they release the ones with the new fan?
