    I took this picture yesterday to prove a point, I remember the point having something to do with the helmet, I'll read my text's later.. Large Picture. I'd figure I'd post the this for TreeFitty incase he was interested in our apparatus in the sticks.

    I'd remove the top half of the Box entirely, but I'm afraid of dust falling onto the motherboard and in the heatsinks. I'll try drilling them first. I've had one of mine torn down for about a year the only thing to have gone wrong with it was the DVD drive it refused ejecting so I took that cover off and never covered it up and killed the laser via dust. You should be good as long as you blow the dust off and keep maintaining it you should be fine. Although it's your console it's your call, I'm just offering advice from experience with Xbox.

    I fucked up on the title, I realized that afterwards. I'm hoping it isn't a bad port as IV was. I think it could possibly launch like how IV did with PC.

    Yeah, its frequent deaths force me to clean it frequently. A week or so ago, I sat there with Q-tips and cleaned both sides of each fan blade. For both fans. Most boring thing I've ever done. There was about an eighth-inch layer of dust on each blade. Compressed air wouldn't budge it. Also, the heat sinks are the things that look like about 8-10 walls, very close together, correct? I've seen so many sources saying they're this and that, and I don't know what's correct. I appreciate your help, Con. Seems to be working right after I posted this, but if it does it again, I'll just drill holes in the silver sub-housing and leave the plastic one off entirely. Thanks a lot. Cheers! The aluminum housing is thin enough tin snips should be able to puncture it, you could even just remove the aluminum sub-housing it only requires I think a T-6 or T-8 or Phillips screwdriver. I took the sub-housing top off and left the bottom half in the bottom housing. so it wouldn't scuff the surfaces it was placed upon. It also gives you better vantage points to clean the dual fans seeing as you're able to clean them easily as they're accessible.

    Posted to the Senior Animators profile on Linked in Ryan Schacter he was transferred from Vancouver to San Diego to work on Cutscene animation for PS3/360/PC it has since been removed. I looked to see if this was posted if it was spank me like the naughty boy I am.

    Do it at your own risk. The worst thing to happen if you take the casing off is dust collection. I had an Xbox that over heated I took apart and ever so often cleaned it with a can of compressed air. As long as you don't mess with the motherboard and the heat sink you should be fine, just clean it with compressed air every once in awhile. If it comes down to it and you can keep it efficiently cooled outside of the Original housing then I'd say go for it. Do it at your own risk. DO NOT remove the DVD drive from the housing this overtime can kill the laser. On my 2nd Xbox the disc drive failed and wouldn't open. so I took it out of the housing and killed the laser from the dust (partly because I was being stupid & being lazy sucks). Edit: If you take the console out of the housing remove the fan cover and properly clean the fans. If you'd like help doing that I'm sure I can post a picture tutorial. ( I like to take shit apart)

    this is exactly what i'm talking about! it's like a haze is over everything. You realize this is New York City we're talking about it's not sunshine and shit, it's dreary. They wanted the environment to reflect the city and the storyline.

    My friends list is Currently full. I normally play GTA at nights so if anybody wants to add me just send me a message and I'll make room accordingly. Does Friday, February 1st work for everybody, say around 9PM EST since we all seem to be Western Hemisphere?

    Hablas ingles? It was in english? I know but I had a hard time understanding the broken english so I felt the compulsion to make fun of him. Sorry, it's who I am! Oh I thought it wasn't typed in english, I figured Google might've translated for me.

    Alright sounds good. let me know your timezone. Also what day is best for everyone? I'm free most days from 4PM - 6AM EST.
  12. ConQueSteD
    Listen, I already made you my bitch once on GTA. I'd hate to have to do it again in front of others on the forums. Turn off the aim-bot, then we'll do it again. Oh, aim-bot? I didn't know skill and precision was considered an aim-bot. The sad part that's the first time I've really played GTA since July.

    Yeah especially with international private matches. RDR was terrible with match making and syncing. People losing connection every couples of minutes. As soon as one person joined someone would be kicked to make room. Otherwise we would have had way more RDR matches, seeing as it was so popular around here. I think that was the Servers that was being used because the Xbox servers are pretty stable for GTA IV and RDR the only glitches I really notice is on IV where nothing spawns anywhere, it's normally the host is bad and needs a new host. The dropping of random players sounds like it's the servers imo.

    Since it's harder to talk about this about this in a status update I made this thread, I'll update/change it later. Post here if you're interested on playing GTA IV on Xbox with us. We'll decide a date also.

    While the idea of storing the profile on the control is good, I feel it has a downside to it that might not be thought of. There's been a few times where my controller has downright died on me and would hate for this to happen to me if my profile was attached to my controller.

    I feel sorry for the motherfucking kid who forgets to take this off then gets plowed by the TSA.

    Better than the Next Xbox Specs. I think the next gen still has a few more years before the next console releases.

    O.K. so what interesting addition to GTA V's Los Santos would you like to see in their place? ( and by their I mean what instead of Street Gangs? ). Sarcasm is completely over your head isn't it?

    He probably thinks the bigger the number the better it is. I personally believe anything over 120 is Overkill, 240hz is preferred if you watch alot of sports. I use a 42" Samsung LCD. The ps3 tv allowed you to play 4 player split screen, each player "saw" a full screen because of the high refresh rate. That would be cool, wasnt 600hz though. I heard about that tv but the ad for it I saw was for two players.

    In my opinion I'd say the price is a bit high but still reasonable, I personally save some more and buy a newer model (not necessarily new). But that also depends on what you want to do with it. If all you do is browse the internet then I'd say that laptop would be fine.

    ConQueSteD replied to Truth's topic in Geek Central

    Depends on price. 160GB HDD will work depends on what all you need for space Windows 7 only requires at most 20GB, I don't know anything about the celeron processor but 1.8ghz seems pretty obsolete. The OS you have is great I prefer Ultimate because of BitLocker and a few other features, the 3GB RAM is pretty average nowadays for laptops.

    LED use LED backlighting instead of fluorescent backlighting. The main difference is cost efficiency.
