Sure, the Xbox 360 Fan Stand can help keep the system cool, but what about the power supply? Well, for now there's
always a PSP box… or your fridge.

doesn't really match the 360's color scheme, but who am I to judge.
If you created a 360 power supply fan stand, you may be in business.
Grey is neutral. That's why its in most car interiors.
Matches the cables.
Looking at the picture, I thought that was for the power supply.
Ha ha this is pretty funny becasue everyone was saying that the xbox overheats and now look wat came out LOL
Guys, check this out. If you have an Xbox 360, this link will show you what NOT to do to it.

Tilting your Xbox could damage your disc, and I don't mean damage like light scratch. I mean damage like, DAMN YOU MICROSOFT! YOU AND YOUR FAULTY HARDWARE DESIGN! Seriously
If something like this is needed, it should've been included...
It looks big enough, why not just put the 360 power supply on it?
man, you all must've got the faulty ones, i'll just wait till next season ;-)
Effin homo stand if you're asking me.
I dont know if it is anything to do with the fact we run on higher voltage here in the UK but my 360 power supply barely gives out any heat at all!
The 360 chucks out plenty of heat however
All the banter about 360 overheating is overblown by fanboy haters, and dumb-ass-non-gamer-reports just trying to write a story.
Fact is, regardless of what the product is, a certain percentage will always be defective over the life span of that product. Some overheating and malfunctioning can also be attribuded to user error. Some people simple fail to practice common sense and blame the manufacture when their $#!t breaks.
I have a 360, and I have not experienced any of problems being reported here and elsewhere. The system and power supply become only warm even after hours of gaming.
With the internet providing a flood of information, word just gets around faster. I sure that past generation systems had just as much problems. I recall having to beat the life out of an NES just to get it to work, and thats cuz it was NEW!
Given Microsoft's record of releasing products before they are thoroughly tested and ready, it is no wonder many skeptics (including myself) wait to see how the machine performs. Obviously, many people are not pleased. We're all sick of beta testing official product releases for Microsoft and then having to pay for product support. Perhaps gaming consoles should go the way of open source...
Not interested! My 360 works fine as it is. Just put your xbox360 in a place where there's enough airlfow. It's that simple!
Every system made has had one of these cooling fan add ons, even the original Xbox. It doesn't mean anything. My power supply/system doesn't over heat, and I don't know anyone who's does. Its been way blown up by haters and the media.
Hi Black Guy,
"I have a 360, and I have not experienced any of [sic] problems being reported here"
Just because you don't have the problem, doesn't mean there isn't a problem.
You obviously haven't experienced it, so why are you so concerned you felt you had to write a huge, blathering comment on it?
Please feel free to comment, but I probably won't read it. But for the sake of the other readers, could you keep it 100 words or less?
mines FINE

Whatever. Just because I don't have the problem I know it doesn't mean that someone else isn't having it. Did I suggest? Let me read my post again... No, I doesn't look like I did.
U asked why am I so concerned that I had to write. If someone was spreading rumors about u defaming your chararacter, what would u do? Same principle applies here.
Finally, If u have a problem with my lenght, then don't read it. Simple. I type a novel here if I feel like it.
@ DAN/#17 -- actually "Black Guy" wrote one of the more-intelligent posts here.
I guess you didn't jump on #11's (m1k30rz) far more idiotic comments because its suits your basher worldview?

Thats what I'm talking about...
Yes when I knocked over my 360 while standing upright it mad a terrible screech! The 360 light was then blinking red and the game froze everytime I powered it up. Turned out hte disc had a crucial scratch on it. Game Stop replaced my Amped 3 and then I heard about the recall soon after. I read that it contains many parts. I may subscribe to the technical support while the offer last since its limited.
mine doesn't have any problem overheating. But this added the factor of providing additional cooling which can always help the 360 cooling. I would assume this stand has a fan that blows air up into the 360. WHich though the bottom is where the intake for the 360 is located. Not to bad to being able to push in cool air and help circulate the air in the 360 better
Guys... this thing is for the power supply, not the console. The overheating problem was with the power supply.
