Thats because when you ground the d0, you tell the xbox to boot from the modchip and not the onboard bios

That sound is your power supply(it does that when it powers off too fast when powered on). About the frag,i am going to tell you something similar that happened to me. I once wanted to add a fan on the gpu haeatsink(the passive one,without the fan on it)to make it cooler. I did, but the dvd drive was pushing on it when closing the chassis and after some days i started having this issue(frag,but after some attempts it boots normally). I removed the fan and it was fine again. So my guess for both of us is a cracked solder join. When it is cold,there is no connection and with all these attemps,the solder gets warm(expanding in the proccess)and then it makes connection. My suggestion here it to do a full reflow off the motherboard from both sides and check if that fixes the problem. Have a nice day

Around 50-60 CPU Around 40-50 GPU If you have messed with the fan and/or the fan speed, the temperatures will vary

I have 5 xboxes and all of them accept the overclocks fine. They are versions 1.1 1.2 1.4 and 1.6

Will an LED or resistor draw more power from the board than the capacitor would? If no, then thats a very good solution

Cut the Lframe and add a switch between the 2 cuted terminals. That way you can disable\enable it as you wish

I measured mine with a meter and it is consuming 50-70 watts(I use an ssd so with a harddisc it would be more)

You can use a 40mm pc fan. Thats what i use

You need an application called "DeXbe"

This is the one i use in all 4 of my xboxes. 1 of them needed the 80pin cable to work for some reasson. All others have the 40 pin https://www.ebay.com/itm/394224993298?hash=item5bc9a40412:g:6wYAAOSwebdckzI~&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAAoPxfBdK2NPwokGwb4rpmVDTi%2BhtLZ8LqmBcKNHaLKvFltF7DuwvdR15L7sEJCAOQzSGrtv8V617L94fK3xfl8PXw8WQ7CXPc62ADXxsKNs7V1RQNBCYYcTFxPsR6PyOzVmcEYGr5I9oir6g9A%2Bg7i16%2FiXjypWyISqCIkyMD%2FDh%2BFa9pB3cSadZZYujyVkvVi8ZqeDbtB7qAb9IMOIu3Z%2Bo%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR9CP6JmuYQ

Is this even more expensive that some green cheap ones that you can find in china? I buy the for 5$ each and they work without problems or latency

If the noise doesnt bother you, then the stock fan is the fastest and most efficient fan you can find

I would be really interented in that, if there would be a way to reassemble the xbox with the dvd drive inside afterwards

The bottom of the shield gets warm. The sides are were its cool(From where the air comes in). And of course i didnt mean that the difference will be big, i only wanted to say that it does make a difference,even a tiny one.

It also cools the incoming air down. When the air hits the cold shield it gets cooler,making more work on the warm components inside. It also acts like a heatsing since it makes contact with both the motherboard and the psu from the bottom side,absorbing their heat. I also dont like someone naming myself "paranoid" after i only said my opinion
