QUOTE(technophile @ Feb 17 2009, 03:33 PM) i simply lol at ppl who thinks so hard about the dvd noise jasper make. so far i haven't receive any comments or reports from my neighbors yet. nor the comments from the ppl sleeping in the room beside me. trust me, when your audio system is at full blast (be it playing GOW2, Halo 3, Forza, Fable 2 or even Uno), you won't notice a thing about it. stop being so picky and just buy the damn thing. care only about games as that what's gamers do. nitpicking will get you nowhere. so what if Valhalla will be quieter? the next revision could probably be MUCH quieter. hence, should you wait for the system AFTER Valhalla? LOL! +1 ! bye bye TS.. u'll be enjoying ur xbox360 while we're already enjoying xbox720.

Some more we need to wait even longer for Valhalla to reach Malaysia. By the way, is the HDMI Audio update fixed by MS? I also wanted to get a Jasper but you know, this economic crisis...sigh...dunno parents will buy for me or not.

QUOTE(xxboxx @ Feb 17 2009, 05:35 PM) since jasper have been quite stable so far. i wonder does MS will still spent their resources to develop Valhalla. it would seem more logic if they concentrate on next gen xbox, some more now also got rumours about ps4 already. jasper is not confirm stable yet...

Hurm, dont be rude le.. Let he pick.
But it's great for you to do so much research before buying the console, The only research I've done before I bought mine was the price and RROD.. LOL
I never knew the existence of Falcon/Jasper. But I'd suggest you get Jasper,
If you want to reduce the noise, simple buy a cabinet or a box, and poke hole for cables.. sure it will reduce noise up to 80%

Although word on the street is that Microsoft is planning to release the successor to the Xbox 360 in 2010, the company is still apparently planning on updating the 360 design several more times in the next couple years. Just like the "Falcon" motherboard now on shelves updated the original 360 design with a 65nm CPU, the upcoming "Jasper" revision should take the GPU to 65nm as well -- blah blah... The real action, however, appears to be "Valhalla," a supposed final rev of the 360 that integrates the GPU and CPU into a single "superchip." Details on that are more than sketchy, and we're definitely skeptical -- especially since we'd been hearing chatter about 45nm CPUs, but nothing about a unified architecture. We'll see when we see -- as long as all these boxes play CoD4, we'll be happy. Lol... CPU + GPU into a single chip ! Now that's rad !

Certain revision of PS3 /w 65nm chip (Refering to 1st batch MY PS3, dunno now still got such problem or not) suffers 3RRoD like problem--Chip packaging detachment.

The main reason theyre doing it is not for reduced failures, but for the fact that less die size used the cheaper it is for microsoft to produce the 360. Cost cutting. Improvements on the failures are made in parallel with the rev increase to accommodate the changes. Cost cutting doesnt really translate to less failures all the time though. Remember the PS2. The mid of life versions of the PS2 were the most reliable. The late cheaper to produce versions were more prone to failures.

Even if it runs superb hot externally compared to xbox, it won't crash for unknown reason.

Hahaha, I remember before an annoouncement for the 3RRoD problem, a lot of ppl actually said that the 3RRoD is a scam
