Oh, mine isn't that version, its the one with the new heatsinks.

MilkyWay · Aug 8, 2008

so your saying you have a jasper and it broke?

i think thats unusual, even unusual for the falcons to break

the original xbox 360 i wouldnt be surprised tho as the cooling wasnt sufficient and the dvd drive noise is to much, at least they decided to fix the heat issues and noise issues

alexp999 · Aug 8, 2008

Jaspers arent available to buy yet. And falcons arent free from RROD, they still do RROD, just not as much. The GPU hasnt changed.

Jasper should bring the 360 fail statistics in line with the PS3, as it will have a cooler running GPU which is the bit that causes RROD's

I cant wait till the jasper comes out. I'm gonna replace my 20GB launch console with a Jasper Elite.

MilkyWay · Aug 8, 2008

i might replace mine dunno if its worth it tho tbh

wondering how much it would be to trade in my 360 and then what the difference between a jasper would be

i know Falcons do RROD but its less comon hardly any of them do it

its the heat that does the RROD everything else is hardware related

I know, the GPU overheats, then a combination of warping and softening solder causes GPU to get partially disconnected.

Falcons are better cus CPU is cooler so less heat in the box, Jasper should be the fix though, as it has a 65nm GPU so that will be cooler and shouldnt overheat.

I dont see why they just couldnt do a firware update that set the overheat function lower.

I'm upgrading cus I want the 120gb HDD to store games on when the new dash comes out. And knowing my luck I'll spend £100 on the HDD, then the xbox will break just as 3 yrs extended warranty runs out, so I figure I may as well put that £100 into a new jasper elite, that has hdmi, and runs cooler!

Joshmcmillan · Aug 9, 2008

I think the falcons RROD rate is still like 10%. Which is a lot better then the original.

Man am I glad I got an Elite

It's a little older, but I don't think it's a launch elite. It does have the higher wattage PSU, though. But I've driven it probably 400mi and it hasn't given me a single problem, so I don't think anything's going to come loose if it hasn't already :cool:

If its got a ~200W PSU then its got 90nm GPu and CPU. if 175W its got 90nm GPu and 65nm GPU. Then in theory the jasper with both 65nm CPU ang GPU will be about 150w.

long as you keep it cool and ventilated like you would a PC it shouldnt be a problem. Mine is damn noisy and vents out a hell of a lotta heat though. Warms up my room good and proper no joke.

DanishDevil · Aug 11, 2008

Same with mine. It's the 225W I think. It's not any louder than the DVD drive, though, but play by drive will take care of that.

Anyway, I might be getting rid of the 360 very soon. Looks like the likelihood of it getting stolen overseas is higher than I thought.

-1nf1n1ty- · Aug 12, 2008

anyone in the 360 club have unreal tournament 3? can you tell me how it is and how many servers are up? I have the ps3 version want to see, if people on 360 still like it

snuif09 · Aug 12, 2008

okay my second 360 also got ROD lucky enough it should be back this week but now i cant play BF badcompany :'(

MilkyWay · Aug 13, 2008

DanishDevil · Aug 20, 2008

I'm selling my 360 Elite with 15 games and a bunch of other accessories if anybody's interested.

MilkyWay · Aug 20, 2008

i might be interested in taking something from you not the console tho as i have a 360 myself

might i ask why your selling it, its not really that different from the PS3 enuf to warrant selling it if thats what your doing

alexp999 · Aug 20, 2008

What sort of accessories you got? Would ask about game but cant cus of stupid ntsc/pal thing (which pc games dont seem to suffer from :wtf:

)

MilkyWay · Aug 20, 2008

ive played foreign games on my 360 ill have to check up on that

alexp999 · Aug 20, 2008

Foreign games are fine if they are pal or region free. But retail games in the US are usually always NTSC which afaik wont work on a PAL UK console. (unless its been modded)

DanishDevil · Aug 20, 2008

I'd really like to get rid of it all at once. It's on my local craigslist for $800. Elite with 2 rechargable wireless controllers, 15 good games, hd dvd player, 4 hddvds, remote, headset.

alexp999 · Aug 21, 2008
