is this better than XCM fan?

Micro Center Online - 360 Turbo Cooler


this is intercooler. BUT!!! it says

Intec's Turbo Cooler is a great way keeping it secure from overheating. The new Turbo Cooler has 3 ultra quiet motors to keep the 360 cool at all times. The unit draws power from a separate AC Adaptor (included), so it does not cause additional overheating of the Xbox 360 units like other fans in the marketplace today. (Xbox 360 not included)

I mean...that was the main reason other coolers have failed.

but then again, my another question is
how can it cool 360? 360 stock fan is extracting hot air from inside the 360 and i really don't understand how this can help the stock fan.

I heard that if intercooler runs slower than stockfan, it will only trap the hot air that stock fan was trying to extract becuz intercooler is blocking the air.

but think about it in different way(different direction). if intercooler runs faster than stockfan, it still can't extract heat from 360 becuz stockfan is blocking the intercooler fan. am i wrong?

the fans on the intercooler definintely aren't going to go slower than the 360 ones. when i had my nyko intercooler it used to spin like a lawnmower, so i think the intercooler fans going faster is actually a good thing.

I am not a fan of external fans. I have never tried this one so you can definately try it out and give us a review of the fans performance.

Any fans that go right next to other fans is fucking dumb. All they do is suck the hot air that the stock fans just pushed out away.

It is like having a car pull another car when the other car is already driving...biggest waste. Doesn't even make sense.
