Xbox 360 Console Modding Questions .
« on: August 29, 2009, 09:19:54 PM »
Well I'm new to this whole scene but there are multiple mods that I want to do.
but they all require a power source from the DVD Drive, so I was wondering If you could just plug
2 or more of these cables together so I can have multiple mods ?


I'm really just looking at XCM Core cooler v2 but I am only going to use one of the fans, I don't think the one on the right won't fit. but I'm also wanting to use This Case Thats the meaning for the two things on the DVD drive, if the 2nd fan will fit I will put it in.

also how do you know what brand your DVD drive is ?

If i was u I would get the xcm core v2 and a regular clear case. I xcm core v2 and both the fans fit perfect. i'm noy sure if I would plug more than the xcm cor v2 cooler to the dvd drive. you really don't want to draw to much power from the drive..

Dont use the DVD power, here is the 12v spot on the motherboard that I use for all my mode, yellow is 12v, blue is neg and red is 6v standby.
Standby works when the console is off or on.

Also, buy a 70mm fan and put that in front of the CPU heatsink


Here is how you figure out which drive you have. If it is not one of those pics. you have a Lite-on drive

NEVER use the MOSFETs for power, if 1 thing shorts out or gets a surge your xbox is toast
