latest rumor:
Black Xbox 360 W/HDMI, 120GB HD (and maybe 65nm processors) ~ USD480  source: http://gear.ign.com/articles/766/766047p1.html  the best part is, they can reuse those abandoned "white is coming" psp ads   This post has been edited by acougan: Mar 17 2007, 11:43 PM |

QUOTE The Xbox 360 120GB Hard Drive includes a data transfer kit to easily migrate all of your saved data from your 20GB HDD to your 120GB HDD. It comes preloaded with great HD game demos, videos, and an assortment of Xbox Live Arcade game trials. haha, great news. so who here has the best line? buy the 120GB and dload demos all day lor, the rest of us go to ur house/shop to copy over those large demos in minutes rather than days or maybe can have gathering to swap & copy demos  wonder if they sell the data transfer kit separately? QUOTE(oniee @ Mar 28 2007, 03:36 PM) i agree but what with the price tag? for 120GB?? HDMI and black color doesn't really interest me as much cause i don't own a tv that can display 1080p or PC monitor for that matter... wait for ppl to upgrade to 120gb, they surely will sell off their old 20gb for lower price. can grab 2 more to get 60GB!!

i think rgd the 65nm issue, MS wont come out & announce suddenly they switch to a new revision. they'll do it secretly and continue until the old 90nm old stocks sold out.
so i'll won't be surprised if the 65nm do turn up in certain models around Fall'07. but from the outside box, sure kenot see any difference one  maybe have to take x-ray scan, then buyers can know for sure This post has been edited by acougan: Mar 29 2007, 01:48 AM |

QUOTE(cannavaro @ Apr 21 2007, 02:09 AM) QUOTE One a side note, we all had a good belly laugh here at the shop when we saw Microsoft's most creative measures to minimize the dreaded Xbox 360 3 flashing red lights "ring of death" error caused by poor BGA connections of the CPU and GPU. It seems that that the good ol' a dab will do ya methodology applies here. Take a look at the epoxy surrounding the CPU and GPU which is intended to prevent the BGA connection from popping as the board warps. This has to be one of the funniest things I have ever seen. Will it do the job, we have our doubts, but it will remain to be seen. It certainly seems like taking the easy way out instead of fixing the real problem. maybe time to wave 3RoD bye-bye?

http://benheck.com/07-12-2007/inside-the-xbox-360-elite next, lets hope falcon with 65nm chips and HDMI for Halo3 Special Edition!  i think finally, by year's end, we can safely recommend others to buy a reliable 360  |

i'm guessing all new 360s manufactured in august'07 and beyond have extra heatsinks. the problem is many unsold stocks still exist for the 360 in the US. thats why they announce a pricedrop to sell off the old models, i think.

i'm actually hoping some third party company will sell a DIY heatsink replacement. i'm sure even those official MS heatsinks are manufactured in china, right? then, all those stuck with old models can change the heatsink to extend its lifespan.
