Well I have a Xenon but Ive had it for four years and play it 3+ hours a day and its never overheated/broken on me. I want to ensure it doesnt break so me and my dad decided lets do a little father/son bonding time by modding the Shi* out of my xbox. We are going to add 2 12v pc fans to it. (One's 40mmx20mm, the other is going to be 60mmx20mm.) I am also adding Led Storm v2, Talismoon whisper, Talismoon Twilight v2 fan tunnel, and a XCM B.Q. drive cover. We are obviously going to cut windows as well. (I'll post pic when done!) I need to know if this might be taking to much power from the xbox? The two pc fans are going to be directly soldered to the PSU on the xbox and the both the talismoons to the OEM fan connector. The Led Storm will be the disc drive. I am also cutting a window in the HDD and dardwiring some leds. Please tell me what you think about power issues and what you think about what the xbox will turn out to be. Thanks guys and have a great day!

i think the power will be ok since the xenon takes in 203watt powerbrick so thier should be enof power but you will know once you play the xbox for the first 10mins whether it will be ok or not

~What I did was get an old PC PSU Power Supply Unit, And have that at the back of my Xbox, & Power external LED fans or LED's via 4Pin Molex connector or 3 Pin power adapters, But you need to trick the PSU into thinking its plugged in to a motherboard which you can find out on YouTube ect
