New Xbox 360 model to sport an additional cooling unit?

Rumors have it that Microsoft is planning to come up with another model for the Xbox 360. We know it sounds quite amusing especially at this stage when the Elite was just recently released. However, French online site Logic-Sunrise managed to grab some snapshots of the said “new” model.

Every Xbox 360 user knows well that the console has had problems with overheating, sometimes resulting to the dreaded Rings of Death. Allegedly, the new model sports hardware that addresses just that. Basically, the hardware configuration is the same as the regular 360 consoles in the market today except for a newly installed cooling component.

  

If this turns out to be true, then it’s a welcome addition to the system. While Microsoft isn’t confirming or denying anything yet, there are certain questions that come to mind right now. Will there be additional cost for this? And what happens now to the much-rumored price cut?

We will update you as soon as we get more info on this.
