Hello There GiantBomb community, I wanted to ask a question. Last year (2010) my Xbox 360 standard warranty expired, and recently these past couple of months my Xbox 360 has been making some funky noises, it sounds like it may be running harder than its supposed to (sounds like a Jet enine). I always install my games so to not put too much wear and tear on the disc drive and try to keep it cool, but I fear that accmulated dust might be the problem. I wanted to get inside and clean the thing out since blowing a can of air through the vents only serve to make the problem worse. So basically my question is if my Xbox 360 is out of standard warranty is it still covered by RROD and E74 problems, or has that all been changed recently, because if I can still send this thing in to get fixed when it conks out I don't want to open it. Please let me know, or post a link to any details. If I won't be covered for RROD or E74 then I will go ahead and clean this bitch out myself, but let me know guys before I do it. Thanks everyone!!
@MikkaQ: Alright cool thanks a lot man, youv'e been very helpful, I'm rather new to posting on here, Ive had this account for a little while but never really posted on here.
@MikkaQ: Ok cool, thanks for the advice. What case would you recommend I was looking at a CoolerMaster CM 690 II advanced case or the Fractal Design core 3000 for a case. I don't want a Behemoth fridge of a case like my friends have, I have limited room and desk space so I was thinking mid tower would be fine, Note that I am not looking to SLI really. Thanks for helping me out by the way, I tried asking for help over at gamespot a couple days ago and got shot down and didn't get any help what so ever.
Hello there Gianbomb PC community, this is the first time I have Posted anything. I am currently going to school for traditional/2D animation, and I am a freelance Illustrator working on my comic book project I want to get up on over the net. My current omputer doesn't really cut it anymore (its an HP from 2006 AAAAHHH) and I was looking to build a PC for content creation. I do want to do some gaming like playing BF3 and Diablo 3 (whenever it comes out), but my main purpose is for it to run content creation software flawlessly. The main programs I will be using are Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, Adobe After Effects, Premiere Pro CS5. If you could suggest a build around the 1000-1500 dollar range please do so. Do not include the monitor as I already have one, however I still need to research some really good IPS panel monitors before I purchase one. So for the tower and components itself what would you all recommend. I was thinking of an i7 2600k and a GTX 570 for the CPU and GPU at least, especially for Premiere Pro. Give me some advice, thanks everyone!!
