It's not even Component!!! Composite! Freaking Video, Left, Right.... I don't get MS or Sony with this... "Hmm... let's create HD consoles, and sell them with SD cables, so the parents that buy them can go, say, 'hmmm, it looked better in the store'"

Just watched the unboxing, and TBH I'm not overly impressed, i'd rather just buy an elite, untill at least I find out if it will break down as easily as the others... Just as an idea, they could've named it the new xbox: fingerprint??? |

It being whisper quiet, and that it'd look great next to a fat PS3 (both glossy black) are the only 2 reasons I'd get one. (Aside from mine RROD'ing outside of warranty.) I'm not so sure they're less likely to fail. If they were less likely to fail you'd think they'd increase the warranty period. With these haven't they decreased the period from 3 years to 1 year? |

Yes, because it is physically impossible for this model to red ring. It has no red lights.... |

Hahah .. Were you talking about Microsoft or Necris here... since he lives in Queensland. So .. it cant red ring cos they removed the red LED's? I guess thats their idea of stopping the red ring. |

The fan looks like those cheap stock Intel coolers.. Im betting the fan is a sleeve-bearing and not a ball-bearing or fluid-dynamic-bearing fan, the latter two would make it pretty silent though they're more expensive to use, so knowing MS, its not cost efficient for them. Wonder if someone - like Zalman - will release a fan to replace this one with.
So they changed the chipset to smaller I think it used to be 65nm. Instead of the two fans at the back of the unit its now one on the side, I forgot it had those two at the back on the old models we all have. Dont the ones we have now use integrated GPU as well? which doesn't seem like a new feature. |

Pre-Valhalla had separate GPU and CPU. The changes went: Zephyr: 90Nm GPU and 90Nm CPU Falcon: 80Nm GPU and 65Nm CPU Jasper: 65Nm GPU and 65Nm CPU Valhalla: GPU and CPU now integrated in one chip, 45Nm. |

It has an HDMI port, just doesn't come with any HD cables. It's no more powerful than the older 360's. It's just smaller, supposedly silent, and uses less power. Edited by wilchelus, Friday Jun 18 2010, 02:40 PM.

ah ok, thats cool then i can use the cable I already have then. I don't mind the look of it, and the 250gig HD would be helpful. So how long till this 360 is obsolete? The slim one and just the 360 in general. Or is this as good as it gets for awhile... Edited by Frosted Crown, Friday Jun 18 2010, 02:20 PM.

Good as it gets for a while I reckon. its been a few years for em to upgrade this, and still not even increase the power in it. Im still wondering if its a good think the GPU and CPU are integrated as opposed to separated.. Usually separate chips are better as they're independent of each other, combining them would surely suffer in performance. |
