This could also just be wired into the pin headers on the MoBo. Fan would probably always be on and circulating.

could get something like this (its what im gonna do).  seems tailor made for an arcade cabinet application.  dont have to worry about pin headers or soldering, just have a powerstrip in the cab (as most of us do) and youre good to go.

For both a 360, and PC + monitor...I'd put a fan or 2 in it. 360's alone can generate a lot of heat...

Donkbaca:

I am running a LCD monitor, bad my marquee is edge lit with LEDs, so not much heat from those.  Will one 120mm fan work? Or should I get 2, one exhaust and one intake? Or would I be cool with just the vents and an extra case fan in the pc and an intake fan on the 360?

darkmdbeener:

honestly i would just add these

we installed these into my bros xbox 360 and also it isnt in a cab (still working on my first build) it seems to be good in all situations.
