Meshuggah Can i ask what theme that is

It's a custom theme I made. The edges are the carbon theme and I opened up This Image with Paint.Net, resized it to 1920x1200 (it was originally 1080p, so 1920x1080), put it on a thumbstick, and then set that image as my background.

It does the job well, and kind of looks like the theme they are charging for, which I won't pay for, heh.

When you set an image that's on a thumbstick as your background, does the image get copied over to the HDD, or does your thumbstick have to be plugged in all the time? I imagine it's the former, but just making sure. :p

It automatically copies over to the 360's HDD because it has to make a .theme out of it. Only thing that kinda sucks though, is if you transfer over your theme on your mem card to take to a friends house or something, you have to make sure the jpg is also copied over to the mem card, or it will just be default. But it's not too bad if you hardly change themes like me. Just move it copy it from HDD once it is made and that's it.

Here's mine with my new Xbox 360, only had it a few days. Nothing special here.

After playing on a normal TV, I really want a HD TV now. I most probably will get one in the next few weeks/months.

Feel free to add me on Xbox Live, since I have no friends (... on Live...) yet!

      It won't perform hugely better than the 3080 unless you're VRAM limited in games. Have you tried putting new thermal pads on them 3080 and giving it a good clean to see if you can regain your temps and overclock?
