QUOTE(bernardyong @ Aug 27 2008, 06:52 PM) I'm using the newer, current gen Xbox360 (the one with the louder fan, lighter adapter etc) and it seems to be 3rod resilient thus far *fingers crossed*. Anybody know if it's only a matter of time before I kenna 3rod? 'resilient' ? Microsoft themselves acknowledge the so called hardware failure but never admitted it was a 'flaw in the design'. I mean, the GPU literally gets super heated due to average ventilation, the use of 90nm technology and the fact that the disc drive is so close to it. Its cramed up. Poor ol GPU gets 'tortured' everytime you use the console. Not the GPU, but I heard its the 'solder' that holds the GPU that is of 'not good quality'... Last minute additions to the Xbox 360 so that it would get market share... But look at how its turned out... the Xbox 360 is and has always been (and will always be) the No.1 gaming console on the planet. And I love that for a fact.   |

QUOTE(wan_d7 @ Aug 31 2008, 11:05 AM) is tis 3ROD only occur to the old model of xbox or its randomly happen? i was planning to buy an xbox end of this year. maybe after raya($$). but i dunno where to find a good stock of this console. and does the 3rod happen cuz of the modded console? Eh? (Batman voice) "Some words you speak is of illegal nature. Why do you want to kill me?" Kidding. This 'so-called' hardware failure is to the design of the Xbox 360. No matter 'old' or 'new' model. BTW, Jasper, could be 'it'.. Microsoft, however, is committed to serve its gamers. A 3-year warranty should make them happy campers. [Highlight in red] - Hardware failure is its best friend. Its a matter of time your console shakes hand with it.

Dude visits Microsoft and claims "no sign of Jasper"
http://blog.seattlepi.nwsource.com/digital...ives/152791.asp Hmm... dunno why news about Jasper is really quite... perhaps a 2009 release ? One more year in 2010 before Xbox 3 in 2011 ? |

QUOTE(cannavaro @ Dec 12 2008, 10:15 AM) Guess what? My friend still has a surviving Xenon, bought from you (along with me and another friend, both of us 3ROD already) way back in Dec 2006. Not even signs of 3ROD. But he rarely plays the console, even when he does it'd only be about 1 hour max. Wow... I bow to thy friend... who plays an hour max... can he do that with GTA IV ? Oh and he's still using the default dashboard.  Dec 06 - Dec 09 = 3 years ??!!!  |

QUOTE(pakcikkantin @ Dec 23 2008, 01:20 PM) Cop and wait, quite lost here. 1. "Has problem that will last for at least 43 weeks" "Just look at the back of the console" ? Just to summarize back , since i'm newbie here. Correct me if below are wrong 1 . The old XBOX360 has problem that will last for at least 43 weeks, just look at the back of the console. 2. The old XBOX360 has problems , mostly on heat or other that coz it to die after certain period without knowing the cause. 3. The new XBOX360 called Jasper set chip will last longer / forever 4. The new XBOX360 called Jasper set chip was released around AUG 2008 , and no news about this on microsoft sites nor talking about the problems on old XBOX360 tq for the replies 2. The old meaning - Falcon and below (which 'should' be dead). New - Jasper. 3. "Will last longer" - yeah, definitely. "Forever" ? Not quite. But hey... Jasper could just be Anti-RRoD for real.  4. October 2008 I believe they started selling... as to "being able to get Jasper in stores". But for us Malaysians (actually, regionally speaking, Singapore) - - most likely early next year. Jan - March 2009. |

I recall reading somewhere the failure rate of Jasper is down but not out . 15-30% still get RRoD. That's approximately 1/3 to 1/5 Jaspers. I really really hoped Jasper was the ultimate anti-RRoD 360 console...

QUOTE(kmeng @ Jan 15 2009, 01:51 PM) where did u get those information or rumours? I don't believe unless someone got solid proof showing jasper with RROD with photos.... QUOTE I don't think they have any percentages yet. The Jasper chip system has only been manufactured for 2 months and available for purchase for a little over a month. It has a 1 year warranty and 3 year warranty. Put your faith in the console and play your games instead of worrying. I am not the one to judge the failure rate this early on, but I did know the failure rate is down but not out. |

QUOTE(ZZR-Pilot @ Jan 15 2009, 02:21 PM) Huh....?? Lol... dude. They were just estimates. And the estimation is that the failure rate is lower than previous versions. So stop worrying and keep playing. The future for Jasper looks bright.Jasper has only been out in the market since November last year. Tak sampai 3 bulan sudah ada 3ROD kaaa...???? That's almost immediately after its release!! What bollocks. Even the original Xbox with original faulty design took a while after launch before 3ROD cases started to crop up! |
