This is a lot better than the Nyko Intercooler because it draws it's power from the USB port, which is regulated. The Nyko draws power from the power port and when it starts up the surge from the fans can interrupt the flow of juice to the 360 and cause it to shut down. The surge can also burn out the power port and void your warranty. The Nyko also doesn't draw the hot air out of the 360. It circulates it around inside which can cause the machine to get hotter and bring on the red ring of death. This cooler doesn't work with HDMI equipped models, though, so if you have an Elite, Pro, or Halo Edition console, you won't be able to use it. The old Core and Premium systems will work with it. I am not sure about the new Arcade model or the Simpsons Movie console. If it is not HDMI, and MS didn't move any of the ports around then it should be ok. If nothing else, you get a USB hub and component video with cables for cheap so it is worth it if only for that. &nbsp; One other thing, if you use the VGA port, you will also need to route the audio signal from either the optical port or pull it off of the component jacks. The Microsoft VGA cable has red and white RCA connectors for this but the VGA port on this does not carry audio. You can use the cables that are included with cooler, though, so you won't have to buy them. Overall this is a nice add on for 360's without HDMI video and cheap insurance against the red ring of death. If your older 360 hasn't become a customer service nightmare yet, then you had better get one of these. It will save you far more than it's cost in grief if it can prolong the life of your console. Can someone explain to me how this prevents you from using the wi-fi adapter? The last time I checked it plugged into a USB port and this gives you more of those than you had before, so how is wi-fi unusable?"</p></div> Wed, 09 Jan 2008 10:28:00 -0500 GameWizard http://www.productwiki.com/gamewizard/#item-25086 http://www.productwiki.com/gamewizard/#item-165196 <div><p><em>January 9, 2008 at 10:16 am</em></p></div> Wed, 09 Jan 2008 10:16:23 -0500 GameWizard http://www.productwiki.com/gamewizard/#item-165196
