Falcon Chip?
« on: November 22, 2007, 06:05:00 PM »

Hey guys can anybody tell me if there's any way to find out if I got the new falcon chip on my new 360?

I don't have the box to check the lot or team but here's some pics of the motherboard:

I found on some other forum a different way to tell if you have a Falcon;

Depending on the number of rings next to your CPU hetasink.

I have a premium console with HDMI port and the lot number 735. I have taken a look inside my 360 from the bottom with a flashlight and it seems that it have the falcon motherboard, but does that means that it surely have the 65nm CPU chip?? My PSU also only takes about 170 Watts instead of 200 like the older versions.
