Also been reports that people aren't giving the psu brick enough room to breath.

I don;t get it really, firstly the main reason for this brick was to make the console smaller, sizewise xbox360 isn't that much smaller than the original

theres maybe a couple of inches in it overall. The cpu has 3 cores and the heatsink covering it is liquid cooled which gives the impression it can run kind of hot. Ive read that people have stopped their consoles crashing by having the power brick suspended on string in the air ( oOo: ).

Don't really understand how the brick seems to be the cause of this problem. Nearly all nintendo consoles have had a powerbrick in line on the adaptor cable and they didn't need any special air venting considerations.
