| Hello
Sorry if this topic has been asked before...
I've watched the XBOX360 (ourcolony.net) video were they tell that the cpu
of the XBOX360 is watercooled or something? well i never had a pc or any
other device that is watercooled so how does that work? Does the xbox360
contain water out of the factory or do i need to put the water inside the
xbox360 when i first gonna use it? Maybe some people won't agree with me but
i think that water should not belong inside an electric device. Can someone
tell me how this watercooled system's gonna be on the XBOX360?

It can mean a lot of things, in the PC space it means having a water pump
that passes water through the system to keep it cool. In the case of the
Xbox 360 however it's entirely enclosed, the heatsink itself will contain a
liquid to help disperse heat.

Although, you have to admit, the imagery the OP brings to mind is quite
entertaining... A whole new market in XBox radiator caps?
