    Need Help Reapplying Thermal Paste to Xbox 360S.


    Howdy y'all! I have an Xbox 360 S that is dropping frames (even in Minecraft), and I suspect it's experiencing thermal throttling.

    The console is now partially disassembled, and I've already gotten most of the dust out. But I've been thinking: "I might as well change the thermal paste while I'm at it!"

    I however have a few questions before I attempt this:

    • Is changing the paste something I should be doing anyways?
    • How much thermal paste should I apply? A pea sized amount like a PC or less?
    • Is the X-Clamp Removal Tool Necessary to take off the x-clamp holding the heatsink on?
    • Most critically of all: Can the x-clamp be reused? Do I need to buy a new one or even use another kind of fastener?

    Thanks in advance for any advice y'all can give!

    :)

    I'm sorry to say we cannot discuss self repair to consoles here, there are other sources online for that information.

    Xbox 360 slim overheating

    [quote user="jho888"] My question is should I reapply thermal paste or reapply thermal paste and install a new fan?[/quote]

    No as self repair can get you a console ban.

    FPS Dips?

    That's what I was thinking at first too, but I've already reapplied thermal paste, added a better heatsink for both the CPU and GPU, added heatsinks for the various chips on the board, and added my own cooling :/
