How about get off your lazy asses and don’t play video games. Or if one must sit on a couch and pretend to be worthless, Try reading a book. ---

I have fixed close to 30 RROD xboxes… and have only had 2 have the problem come back, which ended up being an E74 error which is basically the ok to throw it in the garbage.

They also improved the new heatsink design so it won’t warp the board as much, meaning you won’t get 3 red rings as much 🙂 > > so far my 360 has been solid after I modded the xclamp, I don’t know how long its gonna last but we’ll see. > > they also found a way to flash the new liteon drives which were ‘unflashable’ a few months ago, so there is no issue with the new 360s now 🙂 Yup the new 65nm chip runs a lot cooler… def the unit you want to get, when you go buy a new 360, there is a hole in the box by the serial number so the clerk can read it without opening the box, right under the serial number is the volt rating… you can see it without opening the box, the Jaspers will read 12.1v on it… if it reads 14.1 or 16.1 DO NOT BUY IT… its the older model. Yes you can mod the new lite-on, you just need to fill in the PCB info, etc manually instead of it getting it from the probe like the 1st gen LiteOn. > [@FS/ FT: Vzw Motorola Q](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/fs-ft-vzw-motorola-q/38875/45): > > liteon? the issue is with hitachis(0079xx) needing physically modded to be able to be flashed There is nothing physically needed to mod the 79 > [@STi vs civic vs GTi (NSFW on post #222)](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/sti-vs-civic-vs-gti-nsfw-on-post-222/38452/212): > > Liteons are newer than the 79s. 79s have been opened up for awhile.
