Do Xbox 360's Get the Ring of Fire/Death Still?

Q: I Just Wondered...

A: Yes, unfortunately, all 360s are susceptible to the RRoD. The newer versions have a Falcon chip which reduces the chances of the RRoD. But this does not reduce the chance of general hardware failures. So, without the Falcon chip, the failure rate of the 360 is 33% (1 in 3 will fail), but with the Falcon chip, the failure rate is reduced by about 10% so about 23% or less chance of failure (about 1 in 4 will fail).
