How to Replace Thermal Paste on Xbox 360
Alright, get ready for some console surgery! First, grab your tools (Torx screwdriver, thermal paste, and cleaning materials). Disassemble the Xbox 360 by removing the faceplate, screws, and case. Carefully take out the heatsink, clean off the old paste, then apply a pea-sized dot of new thermal paste on the CPU and GPU. Put everything back together and game on!
