Original Xbox Thermal Compound Paste Replacement Tutorial

Worried about rising temps on your Original Xbox CPU and GPU? You’re right to do so. Aging thermal compound dries up under the heatsinks, reducing the effectiveness of heat transfer from the chips and increasing the risk of burning them up. In this video, I show you how to remove the heatsinks from the CPU and GPU, clean up the old thermal paste, and replace it with brand new Arctic Silver 5 thermal compound. This simple process will help prolong the life of your Xbox and keep things cool for years to come!
