Hi,
I had just bought a xbox core system, but then when I heard of all the
overheating issues. I returned it and bought the Xbox 360 Arcade
Version.

Does the Xbox Arcade System run cooler than the core.

Also I have a 512mb memory card. Is that large enough to save
games on, like Oblivion Elder Scrolls?

The Arcade is a better deal across the board. It should have the better designed falcon/65 nm chip. Also it comes with a wireless controller instead of a wired one and you 5 free XBL games as well as the 256mb memory card which is more than enough for game saves. The Core has no games and no memory card for the same price, but I don't really see them in stores anymore.

It appears that the easiest way to tell if you have a Falcon is to look on the box the 360 came in. On the sticker with the barcodes, it'll say either 175w or 203w. If it's 175w then it's a Falcon.

And if you got a Falcon, it's suppose to run cooler.
