They should just make different consoles based on your use, Xbox 360 Light Version - 5hrs/week or less
Xbox 360 Intermediate Version - 15 -20hrs/week
Xbox 360 Get a Life Version - More than 40 hrs/week

Unfortunately there have been times (games) where I would need the last version

On the earlier version of the 360 the issue had nothing to do with the quality of power or consistency, over heating was the issue. The repeated heating and cooling of the boards over time caused the boards to warp eventually leading to solders separating from the boards and the RED RING OF DEATH. Better fans and the cooler running Jasper Chips have pretty much eliminated that problem.
