Hey guys, I bought a 360 like a month ago from Wal Mart, and it has the old chipset and the thing gets extremely hot. It is modded (cost me $70). Would you guys return it (allowed with Wal Mart) and replace it with a Falcon chipset one? It would cost me another $70 (I am clueless with that stuff) to mod again, just pisses me off I bought this recently and got the old chipset (made in August). Does the Arcade version usually have the newer Falcons? Thanks fellas.

i wouldn't mainly because there is a chance that you may get a drive like the hitachi 79fl that is much harder to mod and that may require a mod chip (i believe the 79fl still needs a modchip). if you have a working 360, even if it runs a bit hot, i'd keep it and just place it so it has good ventilation.
