MS said the new falcon board will never get 3ROD again...but how true this fact is.....because the shopkeeper at my place said when i change my board to falcon for rm500...i will never get the 3rod again.....so the purpose i wrote this topic is to ask anybody or anyone who have the experience with my problem to give an advice for me.....thank you...

If you want a falcon it's better to trade than pay RM500 to change the chip. RRoD is still present although the percentage is probably less.

i think what you said and everybody said in this forum were true...there's are no such thing as changing motherboard for my 360 to get the falcon..if you want a new falcon..you must purchase it once more...the shop at my place (mario electronics bukit jambul penang)..were liar...now..i just give up with my 360 and plan on buying the ps3....and i'm not planning to buy the consoles with the same shop anymore...

I don't know it's a lie or not but it does sounds fishy. If they can change the motherboard why not change the whole thing? Changing X360 motherboard is possible but it require some skills plus you have to 'sync' the new motherboard with the DVD drive. Too much hassle, if you really want a falcon trade your zephyr for a new one.

Even ACE Prangin, which I view as 'tech savvy' after Mario Komtar didn't know about the existence of the falcon chip when I asked them ....

I have a falcon with BenQ drive (Yes!) but still after 1-2 hour of playing the console gets pretty hot and sometimes there's noise.

from the moment they said they can change the motherboard for me...it also sound very fishy for me...then i think back..wtf..rm500 for a motherboard replacement..and then he said when i change the motherboard..i will never get the 3ROD again...(still this 3ROD thing give me a nightmare in my gaming exp...i never get this exp with my old consoles..damn M$) then now when i said i want to repair (just pretend) my consoles..to them..they said the motherboard had already finished in stock..and the technician will not open their shop until they get the stock back...so in your opinion wtf shop is that..where they get the f# motherboard...so when i think deep back there...i swear i will never buy a M$ consoles anymore after this....and not from that f# shop...
