Default Xbox 360 Fan?

I just got an Xbox 360 and I want to know if it's a good idea to be using a fan/and if so which one?

I have the Niko intercooler fan, but people say that causes the dreaded rings and can burn up.

So I don't know what I should do know....Maybe plug in a normal fan and have it blow at the back? Would that do anything to circulate the air.

I don't play 24/7, but once I get Xbox Live I will be playing it more because I have Halo 3.

You don't need a fan.

Update:

I haven't been using the intercooler at all, just another piece of junk laying around! Too bad I didn't read the recent reviews before I purchased it.

Anyway I plugged in a small normal fan in front of the Xbox 360 and it has seemed to help. Like you said AJx I probably don't need the fan, but I don't want to see my money go down the drain, and because I am a worry wart!
