HI I recently fixed my xbox 360 with the xclamp fix. Now it frezzes within 3 minutes when I turn it on. I did the x-clamp fix through the back of the case. One washer was didn't get put on because it is very difficult to keep the washers in place well you put the screws through, because the washers are in between the motherboard and case. I also didn't use Artic Silver 5 I used OC Frezze the people at the store told me thay tested it with Artic Silver and said it is the same quality. I bought a whisper fan and a cooling station do you think those might stop the frezzing? I don't get them untill next week I ordered them on amazon.

the people at the store lied to you. i am sure they havnt done any tests. as artic silver is the best out hands down. you should know by now you cant go cheap with a 360. you need to re-do this and do it the right way step by step.

if your not already, use this tutorial. it is the best out.

Arctic Silver can be bought at Radio Shack for 10 bucks or less.

You can go here but I checked the price on newegg and I doubt radio shack can beat it with their shipping cost.

It's just because Newegg dosn't ship to Canada yet. Her Radio Shack is called The Source.
