OK, thanks for all the replies. I called xbox support today, a pre-paid
shipping box is on it's way (3-4 days), repair (10 days) and return (3-4
days). It will be probably take longer but as long it's fixed (done right) I
can wait.
Any suggestions besides proper ventilation as for cooling fan or cooling pad
like those used for laptops? Do they work?

What is the turnaround time?

I got my console back in a little less than a month.

I don't recommend any fans or intercoolers, I bought one of those WIRE
MESH utility boxes at Target. I flipped mine over so it becomes an
elevated platform for your console. You'll get airflow even underneath
the 360 that way. Also store your 360 outside of any crammed
entertainment unit.Other than that the only way to nearly guarantee
never getting RROD is to get a Arcade unit and slap your HDD on,
that's what I did. I'm glad I did , HDMI audio and video quality is
improved over the old component.



This is exactly what I have , its only $5

Just flip it over to make it a stand for your 360
