CCTV is monitoring LYN forumers closely especially postings touch-on pirated/modding matters.
Worst still when someone start to argue about pirated vs ori stuff, I guarantee the policeman(fr LYN)will step in & take action. hehehe..
Disappointed bcos there's the limitation as per LYN rules & regulations.

Good Suggestion. Anyway, right now I will still stick to LYN due to its popularity. I 100% support LYN.

It's true Xbox 360 Pro 60GB HDD Jasper unit.
Pls check up this site , spotted in US

My advise is to buy a 120GB HDD. I have a jasper unit with 120GB HDD, if u have a lot of game titles in your gaming library, at least should have 120GB HDD.
One game occupied at about >6.5 GB of HDD space. Actual usable space for the 120HDD is only about <110GB.

Jasper set got built in memory of 256MB. Power brick 150W, 12.1A. manufacturing date Nov/Dec 2008.
If the set you bought meets above spec , u are ensured u bought a Jasper...

garanti jasper (from latest news throughout the net)

So far no reported case of RROD on JAsper sets worldwide.
My jasper runs fine without any problem. when playing games I can feel it's little warm at the rear vent holes of the machine.
As the fans run at low speed most of the time(fans will autorun at high speed when the GPU or CPU are overheating), I think MS really did a good job on this new chipset revision.

your HDD 160GB only RM140?
Where did u get it so cheap? is it modded from pc HDD?

Added on February 4, 2009, 10:00 amU can see the difference btw playing games on HDD and playing with disk.
When u take out the disk after hours of gaming time on HDD, the disk is still cool. But if u play on disk, u will feel the disk like hot pancake.

Never place vertical.
place it horizontal & the best is stack something at the bottom such that it has more space for ventilation at the bottom.

Wah!!...You bought RM30 cheaper than mine. My 120GB HDD costs me RM300.

Guys, here is the link with some graphics comparison btw PS3 & xbox360 . Game is Resident Evil 5.
Judge with your own eyes...

Xbox360 images look sharper. Look at the forehead of the zombie.

Better get 120GB. Like me, buy jasper arcade & get additional 120Gb HDD.
average one game occupies about 6-7Gb HDD space. 120 Gb could install less than 20 games while 60Gb only less than 10 games.

Basically there are 3 types of cable can be used for x360, standard AV (composite cable), component cable and hdmi cable.
composite cable comes with red,white,yellow connector.(red/white is audio, yellow is display signal)
component cable with blue,green and red.
Only hdmi cable carries digital signal.
Component cable is good enough in PQ unless your TV is over 42" screen size 1080p or full HD.

component cable is enough. don't waste money buy hdmi cable.

The difference in PQ btw hdmi & component is negligible. remember don't ever use composite...

Cheapest DIY..just put a tissue box at the bottom & u'll get max air ventilation around your machine.

Anyhow u stackup your x360 is OK as long don't block the ventilation holes at the bottom left & bottom right.

There's no fans at the bottom, so for sure u can't feel any airblow below.
They made the holes below for better heat transfer out of the box.

Added on February 7, 2009, 4:37 aminstalling & playing games fr HDD does not reduce the chances of RROD but can prolong the lifespan of your Disk drive, reduces loud noise during play time & speed up game loading time.
Whichever set u own (zephyr, xenon, falcon,jasper) ,u still can play games on HDD as long as u install NXE.

It's Jasper sets that reduce the chances of RROD.

I ever opened my old broken x360.
Inside of the external plastic case there's another metal case. So, it's possible that heat is being transfered to bottom part.
