can boot without dvd drive?

[cosmy032]

I could make it to boot without dvd drive?
It had something if I cut the metal CPU cooler? ( I want to add a cooler to blow directly on the processor and is quite broad, because I want to cut your 4 inches of metal radiator 4-5 cm )

It will boot without a dvd-drive, but i didnt exactly understand what you wanted to do with the cooling.

if this is the same console which you had another thread on to do with a coolrunner and if it is indeed a jasper like you said in the other thread a extra cooler will not be needed as jasper consoles hardly even overheat. there is a 0.01% it will and you will get the red ring.

More importantly, you need to leave a DVD drive in there (or something to cover the GPU heatsink) as it acts as an airflow conduit across the heatsink.

I want to remove dvd drive because cooler I want to mount it has large diameter and ventilates on the GPU and CPU

I tried last night, I left the dvd drive sideways and cooler to vent on both, and let the fan on auto and not crossed my 40 degrees,May have to cut the radiator so I can close the case


Sorry for my English

a larger cooler is not needed for a jasper just leave the dvd drive in there modding the console like this is just making your life harder for no reason

I've seen folk use a slim heatsink in place of the GPU one too.

problem is, my Xbox reaching 58 degrees in the menu that I staged one .. but I was looking for a slim cooler .. can manage it anyway ..

 

[scott1503]

I think Martin means a heatsink from a xbox 360 slim

 

[cosmy032]

Whatever..but i don't understand why not? I mean..is an extra cooler..more ventilation ...why is wrong? Please correct me if my bad
Or xbox jasper model is low quality?
Sorry for English..

Jaspers run cool enough as stock. At most, you should only need to repaste the heatsinks. If you remove the DVD drive, you reduce the efficiency of the thermal dissipation.

This should be fairly easy to understand.

The jasper console is the best xbox phat mobo because it hardly ever overheats so the extra cooler/heatsink would be pointless because it won't be needed

 

[cosmy032]

Ok but how many degrees are max? My is on 57-60 in menu with fan set on auto..

It's a jasper the set temps are the correct temp you don't need to alter how many coolers are on a jasper console

Them temps are fine. Just leave the jasper alone and put the heat sink down.
