The standard picture shown of the device doesn't really do it justice.. the actual device is the same color of your Xbox 360, so it matches almost perfectly. There is an on/off switch on the back of the device and the USB plug has an input port built in so you wont loose a USB port, very handy for those with Wireless adapters.
The device also has a place to house your media remote and 2 games (1 if you're using the remote holder ) The fan pushes a decent amount of air for its size and is very quiet. When using your Xbox you wont hear it at all. Overall this is a very cheap and effective way to keep your system cool and potentially prolong its life span. A very good investment indeed. 11 of 11 people found the following review helpful: = Fun: This review is from: Xbox 360 Fan Stand (Video Game) If you've got an XBox 360, you know exactly why you need a fan stand. This unit gets very hot, and the built in fan - while loud - just isn't up to the task of keeping it cool.
The unit is designed very simply. You sit your 360 into this stand, and it cools the unit from below. You can put one game box to the right side, and your remote to the left. Really, that's not why you get the unit though :) It's all about the fan. If you haven't been watching the news or hanging out with other gamers, the XBox 360 is VERY prone to crashing and completely melting down due to heat issues. Part of this might be that gamers lay their XBox 360s down on the ground - blocking all the vents so the system can't get normal air flow - or they jam their unit into a corner where the heat builds up. This system really needs to have ample air cooling around it and be in a vertical position. This stand helps to make sure you get that vertical position and that you have extra cooling...Read more |
