Hey Ben, I'm a big fan of your site, and I even started gathering parts for an xbox 360 laptop mod. I just need an LCD computer monitor, and a job for financial security. I do have a heatsink and fan question however- I obtained a massive heatsink and a squirrel cage blower fan (see images) Would these be ideal for the 360? The heatsink will have to be shortened due to it's tallness, and I'm not including a keyboard, unless it's entirely flat. The blower is 12VDC, as are several other computer fans that I scavenged...

why would you put such a giant fan on such a giant heatsink for a portable mod??
I'm not an expert about xbox, but about computers, there are lots of small fans, for exemple Scythe Big Shuriken, SilverStone NT07-AM2, Thermaltake Slim X3, or you make a closed water cooling system and put the fans at the sides (inside of course) of your case...
and btw nice Case design you got there ^^

Thanks! I agree, the heatsink may be overkill. But I wasn't sure how hot this thing gets.

I love your builds and mods - and your new schow is really great :D
Just asking - why are you making everything so big? You could easily make your builds smaller :/
I hope you gonna post some of your work here, that wsoould be really awesome ^^

I have the same question as mg0930mg... are you the real benheck? Your instructable would seem to indicate so. I first found you through AtariAge, saw that you made movies and cool portable systems, and have been a "fan" ever since. Welcome to Instructables!
