Fan Speed Setting In Unleashx
« on: July 16, 2004, 06:49:00 PM »

The default speed ia 1.0x.

I tried 2.0x and 5.0x which sounds like a hairdryer rolleyes.gif

What is the safest speed to use apart from 1.0x and will choosing a faster speed shorten the fans life?

Also UnleashX reports my XBOX as a v1.1 but I thought I had a v1.2 blink.gif

Is the version info 100% accurate?

I keep my fan at 2.0, any higher and it is too loud. As far as the fan life, id rather replace a fan than a mobo...

You can change it in your System Settings too.

That's a pretty slick solution, but to tell you the truth, I spend most of my time in media center.  Can I access the temp/fan controls in there?

you can always hard wire the "black?" wire to the metal casing on the inside of your xbox and it will ground it and make it a constant 12v

tut on tuts page "12v fan mod"

or do like i did... 10 shipped from newegg, 80mm 12v blue LED fan

I used the Temp. Threshold in Unelash to keep it at 46 Degrees Celcius (115 Farenhieht) and I was wondering....

1) Is this to low of a temp to try to maintain?

2) What is a good temp to keep my box at/how hot is TOO hot? (I have 300gb hd with leds in ports and jewel led ring)

3) If I use the Temp. Threshold it will totally overide what fan speed I have selected right?


THANX IN ADVANCE!!! beerchug.gif

at 180 degrees celsius(i believe) the xbox gets too hot and automatically shuts off.
