why do you say this so late to me?

You can make a offer, Im sure he will not get 1300€, he is just trying

@Bowlsnapper You can find the 3d print file here if you want to test: LINK Thats the result of the 3D print, the xecuter xtender is also 3D printed here in this example. Tbh it's nice how this is possible, but you can see its not the real thing ofc.

Is that the only other option? Yes

There are people who 3d printed the x3cp, but thats not the same quality ofc

Don't think about it, I know someone who informed to make these ant it was 30000 usd to make the molds and some samples. You can never get that investment back in a community this small like the xbox scene.

So you just missing that one button and the x3 chip? Just 3D print a set of buttons and you can complete a 2nd x3cp.

Another blue x3cp popped up on ebay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/266394285966?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&fromMakeTrack=true

Toine is based in EU

Ernegien is not a new guy. He is well known the scene (also under another name) and did release lots of open source og xbox projects

What do you mean with that? Other people like PixelFX or Nemesis can make there own take on a HDMI mod for the ogxbox? Dustin was the first to release a mod like that (and with great success), kudos to him for that. But I do not see a reason that other people cant do a take on an internal HDMI mod. And as far as I know you cant buy the standalone xboxHD+ anymore. There is a gap left there. Not everyone wants a stellar to have a hdmi mod in there consoles. Like me, I have a stellar but its not that I will buy one for every console I use. Why? Because I have some X3CP xbox consoles and I want to keep using the X3 chip for these (my main console is one of the X3CPs) Thats a good point to support projects like this from my point of view.

Sure the caps are fine on these boards? It is very unlikely you killing 2 motherbords and 1 psu with doing ram upgrades. Also check solder splashes around the motherboard. I once had an ram chip soldered in the wrong way. And this board is maybe killed. It has artifacts in the video output. It can be coincidence (maybe the artifacts where there from the beginning, I didnt test the motherboard a lot before upgrade)But I think the artifacts are from the wrong placing of the chips. I replaced the video encoder, all big caps, caps near video port, nothing helps. Maybe its the gpu thats killed. What Im trying to say is make sure the ram chips are soldered the correct way. edit and dont use hot air but an soldering iron to put them on.

or a heavy smoker haha

I have an openxenium and probably a spare lcd screen somewhere in my xbox parts, but no Spi2par2019 unfortunately.

yeah I was surprised to tbh, its like 10C less than stock cooling at stock speed. Also my readings where not 100% real time because to see the temps after a game I must do a IGR to dash, that takes some time where the console can cool a little bit extra. If we would set the stock fan to 100% we would get better temps to but it would be like a jet plane taking off. A better test would be someone that can read the temps while ingame.

It doesn’t need to be noctua. Im sure there are other good brands out there. The only reason I took noctua was because thats the brand that Im used to and know. And yes the brown is not so nice but tbh after watching for years on the brown noctuas I start to like the color scheme now haha

I found some info here, I only dont know if this is also the case for X3, I thought it was but now Im not sure anymore. I never use the x3 bios, only cerbios. @Bowlsnapper

This can be the case, if it was for the x3 chip you can replace the X3 logo where the microsoft normaly shows with some other logo. But the logo is stored and loaded from the hdd when the console boots. This isnt injected in the bios. But what sylver want to change is the microsoft logo inside the bios itself without placing files on the hdd.

I did see that on hdd ready games, but to be fair, like you said, I also think its something else. I think its more something to do with the way of transfering the files. What would be the chance that the op just uploaded all select games that give problems?

press short on the power button to boot from the chip. You probably press long and that way the console boots to the tsop edit: if the console boots from tsop you can tell by the xecuter logo on the front under the bank select buttons turns red, that indicates that the chip is not active

the first time you start halo2 its slow because this game does install game files to the hdd. The 2nd time you start it it loads fast.

I did make a picture of my x3 modchip cib with all the cables and parts

If Im not mistaken there should also be a red wire that goes to the board for the powerbutton, it belongs to that pcb most right on your picture edit: you can see the red cable there:

the green pcb is from the motherboard of your xbox, this has nothing to do with the x3 modchip or face plate. as for the cables, the yellow one is to connect your dvd drive to your motherboard, this has also nothing to do with the x3 modchip or face plate. for with the modchip: the piece with all the coloured cables, the black cable and the right pcb for with the faceplate: the left pcb

no this is because you use another version of the game than is set in the json of repackinator. there is an alt json with all the alt games where you can search your game and copy/paste it to the main json. If you done this repackinator will find your iso. alternate you can rename the als json to the main jsons name and re run the list, then repackinator will do all the alt games found that didnt want to process the first time
