    Do you know why the 1 GHz apparently can hit much lower FSB limits? They 1.0 and 1.4 GHz processors are both from the same process. With my limited knowledge FSB limits should be roughly the same. Can it be that the 1 GHz is basically an undervolted 1.4GHz?

    Xan we actually play with the voltages?

    Someone stated that he thinks the 1.4GHZ schematic / voltages were slightly off /wrong.  Maybe this is it.

    @Donnie-BurgerReally interested to learn your findings as a fresh 1.4ghz owner. According to the specs the lowest FSB speed is 100 MHz which supports the statement of @1ghzowner. However also found a topic here were someone commented that he managed to lower the FSB to 70. Another person commented he couldn’t get it lower the 98.

     

    Once I get one going I will be testing like crazy.

    1GHZ Xbox can underclock to 730 mhz and resolve all the compatibility issues with Xbox games. 1.4GHZ Xbox can not underclock this low.
    So 1GHZ is better if you look for full compatibility with Xbox games and still have enough power for good emulation.

    I'll give this a shot when I get my motherboard in for testing cpus before install.

    So, since everyone has 3d printers now days (except me) and doing no longer real craftsmanship *LÖL* (Just kidding guys) and little me already thought a long time about doing this mod, I like to show you a work in progress (~75% done).  The CPU heatsink fits nice and snug on the GPU (Less movement as on the CPU). 

    Pics: https://imgur.com/a/YlyDcjF

    And the last pic shows a final heatsink with slightly trimmed cooling fins and 50mm cooler on top. At the end both of the cpu heatsinks will look like this (Taken that pic of one of my slim builds).

    And yea, it's for my next slim build which I biuld for my own. 

    Let me know what you guys think and what you belive could be done better. 

    Very Nice!

    Thanks for the update and good luck with your service! The price target is too high for me but i guess others are willing to pay that amount of money for their hobby.

    Keep in mind that the rarity is a factor for the big intrest if you are planing to sell more.

    €350 + shipping is super cheap.  These can go for 1k+ on evilbay

  6. This is for anyone attempting this for the first time:

     

    Ordered some ram from china new and as the one module I installed last night worked it was a pain in the arse.  For some reason the new samsung chips from china have shorter legs (Or slightly thicker module) making it real tight.  Spend 2 hours installing one. 

     

    Spent 20 min installing one from a donor board.  Night and day degree of difficulty.

  7. So I have gifted about 4 xbox 1.6s with 128mb ram and many are saying games are black screening freezing etc.  I'm going to try and pinpoint if its a Titan/Cerbios/UDMA5/ or 1.6 - 128mb issue.  This might be a 1.6 - 128mb issue as sega chihiro games also have issues and i'm pretty sure I played some of those on my non 1.6s 128mb.  If anyone has any info please share.

     

    I'm upgrading a 1.6 now so I can test.  I have a feeling this is bios related but need to be one hundo.

  8. Took me a while to Figure this out.  I believe in the past I would enable HD with xbox menu.  With unleashX I was able to fix this after a few restarts on all my old consoles (A few xboxes required a full power cycle off by unplugging power from back).  I used to think these were all messed up and would harvest the ram from these.  I bought 10 xboxes the other day and was able to fix all the ones that were stuck in low def even the 1.0s.

    So, is there anyone in the US who can flash the clone chip? I can't seem to find the programmer in stock. I would pay to just have it flashed with a good bios that will allow me to use more than 137gb of my 1tb drive. Thanks in advance. 

    I can flash it for you free just pay shipping - Can flash multiples if wanted.  Same offer goes out to anyone else.

    The modchip fitting looks fine and as long as the clock cap is present that's not going to be your issue

    I would suspect the hard drive or the DVD drive is failing, If you leave it on for a while do you get a error message?

     

    Cheers

    Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

    I have seen many 1.6s do this with no dvd hdd at bootup - Some show logo then error some stutter or freeze etc.

    Hello my friend. I dont know if i can put url to this content here.

    But it will work like another game with one exception. In my xbox if tou try to run defalut.xbe file the games will freeze. So if you click to run the other xbe with the name of the game, for exemple, vc3.xbe (virtua cop) the game will run smooth. Dont know it its this way with everybody but with me this work this way i described.

     

    This is correct.  The set I grabbed had 2 xbes and sometimes only one works or none do.  Not sure what was patched if anything etc.  Gonna try and get versions of all the games working.  I know crazy taxi loads then hangs.  Will see whats up.  I like to add Sega Chihiro games their own icon on main screen of XBMC4Gamers with nice box art n stuff.

     

    Edit:  So ghost squad loads then I froze after selecting mission 2.  Goin to try the test xbe now.  Edit2: Test xbe reboots me back into xbmc4gamers.  Gonna keep trying to figure this out as I thought all these games worked?

    Thanks a lot for the reply, I had a copy of C from my 2TB drive on there so went back and started fresh with a stock C partition and just a shortcut to my dash. It booted with no issues but as soon as I touched the XboxHD app (literally just opening and closing it,) it would no longer boot.

    Otherwise audio seems to work in stereo, I guess maybe I'll deal with this until the next fw update. They've said official titan support is coming so that's good. 

    Edit: Spoke too soon, I launched Fable and it had some crazy visual bug that isn't there using my normal m8 hd+ bios. Call of Cthulhu looks fine though, not sure about other games since I haven't really loaded the 4tb drive yet.

    Customer picked up 1.6 so I can't test that but I will test 1.4 as soon as I can.  Hopefully fixes come soon.

    I'm also having EmptyDoll's issue, when I launch any titan/hd+ v1.6 BIOS or even a BIOS I've patched myself with titan and HD+, I don't get a boot animation, screen is black and eject button flashes green. My drive is 4tb and formatted for titan with a dash already on there, also using a startech adapter. I'll test on my v1.4 this week and see if it happens there. 

    Have you been able to figure this out? Wondering what's going wrong for me as other people seem to have this working fine. 

    I was able to test on an xbox 1.6 with HD+with an aladdin xt (Titan UDMA5 128MB HD+ bios on a 64MB 1.6 xbox)

    Long delay on boot like 10 seconds, then boot animation.  I loaded up the HD+ software and kernel patch loader detected so all good right? Sorta, if I change anything in this menu I will get a black screen on reboot.  Was tinkering with this and wiping my c:\ with a fresh one gets me back in.  Some tvs no picture some tvs picture and some tvs no sound and some tvs some games sound.  I'm going to install my othe hd+ kit into a 1.4 hopefully and see the results.  I think the bios has bugs or the HD+ is buggy, dunno yet.

    I removed the pin header and installed a new pin header. Somewhere (you were correct) there must have been a bad connection / solder or some buried flux under the pin header causing problems or something like that because it is now working.  Thanks for the help!  Now I just need to polish my solder skills.

    Thanks!

    Some flux and a good touch up should have done it but hey you got her going.  Good shit.
