Okay XS I have a jtagged jasper 256 running the latest freeboot 8955 etc.... Now if I don't run my fans(from Microsoft) at high speed my system shutsdown/reboots with 2 flashing red lights on the left side of the power button on the console. I might get about 4 minutes of playing time before it does that. Now I went into Freestyle dashboard and adjusted my fan settings to constantly run at the highest speed and I'm able to keep it cool to play a whole game. it's been 30 minutes now and the game is still running and my temps went from 69c to 43 on my gpu. Can i keep it running like this or will my fans die out super fast? thanks in advance, if there is any other information i need to provide let me know.

i run my xenon at 100 allways no probs,,,but you have a bigger problem methinks has the motherboard ever been removed from the metal case?  either ur heatsinks arent on right or they are defective try removing them replacing thermal paste with arctic silver and when placing them back on the mobo make sure you evenly and tightly replace the heatsink screws hope this helps...

If u stick a talismoon whisper max in u will get 58% more air so u wont need to run them as hard.. also far better built than microsoft ones!

as above if u clean the crappy thermal paste off and use artic silver u will also drop console temprature

both steps will help prevent rrod
