XBOX 360: not just for gaming - personal egg cooker too!

from JoeUser Forums

You'd have to think the video linked below would be a big clue as to what is really wrong with Xbox 360's that get the "Ring of Death" (3 red lights).

(Strange choice of music as the sound track to the video.  I'd rather hear the narrator tell us what he's doing).

I definitely wouldn't be eating directly off the heat sink

It's not that strange especially considering how many processors that thing is cooling.

... Damn.

Ah, if only smacklefunky were here. "Throw another shrimp on the 360 smackle!"

That many processors to cool, the ps3 will toast the 360. Quite literally. FLAMEWAR BEGIN!

Alright, no more puns. I'm promise. No need to be get all fired up.

Must be nice to have that much money to waste on cooking food on your XBox 360. Man that puts a whole new spin on "idle hands are the devils playground!" LOL

really not all that shocking to cook an egg on a heatsink, especially for 3 processors, heck, if you try and start up a modern processor without the heatsink, it will turn off within 7 seconds because it will reach the temperature threshhold that fast (and i mean 140 celcius) so slap a big enough heatsink on that sucker and you could cook your food easily

random factoid, water boils at 1.8 Ghz... now figure i'm running a dualcore 1.83... yeesh

hey i'm thirsty *wanders off to get a drink*

It was in the three red lights of death mode so unless he had a warranty it was a pile of garbage anyway.
