Just wondering how long it will last?

I keep the fan speed on 100%

Is 100 the right speed or not?

Just some simple questions

A xenon's life span is very short i'd invest in a jasper or a slim. I have had a jasper for 2 years and had 0 trouble

hey put fan speed at 85% and keep on a hard surface or by a window and you will get 4 years if you only play on it for 2-4 hours a day and also it is the best for online

Xenon consoles can last you a long time as long as you take care of them. My last Xenon console lasted me back since 2010, red ringed on me late last year. But I took hella good care of that console. I literally took it apart at least once a month to clean all of the dust out, I had the fans on 85% and had an extra fan on the heat sinks set up to an external power supply.. I went all out on that console. Usually they last only a couple months though

we cant exactly say what the lifespan is, if your use it once a week for 10mins it will last age's or if you use it all the time it will rrod very quickly ect. i sugest you have your fan on 85%

when I first got my xenon from someone it came with a 1 month warranty but it did not have the fan set to 12 volts so I took it apart and modded the fan my self (void the warranty from the person who sold it to me) and then it lasted for like 4 hours on 12 volts and then, BAM red ring, that's just what happened to me because I think it was a red ring console from ebay and then he fixed it like (towel trick or something terrible like that)and then jtaged it

It depends. They are well known to not be reliable, but if you take care of it it should in theory last a little longer than expected. Not every console is exactly like another, some last a couple months, some last for years. Though most do not last very long sadly.

Got me a 06 Xexon Jtag. Yup. Had for a few years, well basically when MW2 lobbies were big and less restricted. So idk how long that is, but still use and no problems. Only problems is the one I inflict on it, such as bad flash (one time).
