Hey TTG im posting this Topic today to tell you that if you sent your Xbox for Repairs or bought a New one; get your moneyback. As i repaired my Xbox which had 15 Two Red Lights and 20 Three Red Lights and i got a Permanent FIX on it.
The reason you get rings is because of the soldering on your GPU Chip and CPU Chip gets overheated and the Soldering starts to Come off the Chips on the Motherboard. (In case your wondering what is Soldering; It's what nearly every Company uses to 'Glue' Chips and other hardware together etc) That is why you get a Hardware Error and you of course get the ''RROD''.
1. So to solve this? Usually to stop it Overheating I put Icecubes inside a wrapped Cloth or a Bag and waiting for it to Cool down while this is done; Is said to usually give you a Fix Permanent or Temporary; But this is not always the case because sometimes you can get rid of the red lights by heating it up. (YES HEATING IT UP!)If your Xbox 360 is Cool enough you can heat it up with a Fan or Radiator(<-- not to close!)etc. This will give the Solder time to Harden for it to stabilize in the Motherboard, Ridding itself of the hardware error.
2. It may be stupid but keep turning on and off your Xbox because this will also help like it did me.
To tell (I think..) that your going the right way with this is if your red lights on your Xbox keep flashing at different times. You can also just make sure inside your xbox is clear of dust so it doesnt interrupt and make any other problems.
When the lights flash at different times; turn off your xbox once more and turn it on again it should be working, If it still doesn't work then you need to get a new power supply. (You can get one off eBay or Amazon)
These Instructions may not be 100% Accurate but i just proved it 7 hours ago on my xbox when i was messing around with it so i thought i would share it. +Rep if this helps or puts more knowledge about it in your head. Once again this proves red lights Can be Fixed, so dnt listen to the internet and get your money back!
(Sorry if this doesn't help
Hope it helped and plz comment (No rude ones!)
Thanks TTG

Ok. You cnt notice anything so ill say it fr you. The ''Towel Trick'' is the Common way everyone uses. I said try putting Icecubes in a Bag because thats how it works for me and i ALSO said to Heat it up to help the solder harden itself on the Chips. Jeeze use common sense
