How do you get the Ring of Death?
The Ring of Death is thought to be a problem caused by your Xbox 360 overheating, the faulty parts inside the console. There is not only one specific problem that causes the console to get the red rings. Basically, the main problem is the environmental lead free solder they used on the 360. Once the 360 over heats the solder melts and in certain areas of the console the solder melts, when this happens the x clamps separate causing internal damage. Another reason the other main problem is the gpu, the gpu is the graphics card and once you see freezing during your games this would be the problem. What has happened is the thermal past applied on the gpu has over heated and melted over other areas of the circuit board. Theses are the problems that cause rrod, obviously they can all be fixed but a lot of patience is required and if you have warranty its best off sending it to Microsoft. You may have in the past head that rrod only occurs to the Core and Premium versions of the Xbox 360 however, there is a chance they still can get a faulty gpu depending on how the console is used.
