hrmm... I've been trying to hit up smartxx's website and can't. Maybe the site is being DDOS'd.

Actually, nope. No checks from them. I actually just really kept with the Xenium because I would install so many that I pretty much exclusively dealth with them...In the beginning of this year I felt pretty sad for Xodus seeing how they have pretty much retreated

And if there is a v1.7 and Xecuter knows and has successfully verified their chip works on it then why now release news that SmartXX is a gaggle of morons and that their chip does indeed work on it? Either way you look at it, it doesn't make sense.

well its obvious that xecuter hasent heard/seen of this 1.7 seeing from his comments earlier

" its all about them being misleading with test reports on a supposed new xbox version"

End of the day like many have said they probably got either:

1.4 with Hynix ram chips/strange ram timings - but then their chip may have been the only one with the 1.6b M8 bios on it and the others had only older bios's for samsung ram chips

or

They May have got a 1.5 in their workshop and perhaps their chip / install diagram for the " 1.7 " picked up the missing Ground / Vcc from elsewhere - or whatever the 2 missing points were on the LPC

or they got a 1.5 with hynix ram on it - Oh no - sorry that is the 1.8 mobo, silly me

End of the day most of the modchips do the same bloomin' job for 99% of the end users - just some have a few extra features than others

Never used a SmartXX myself - never found I needed to and if they can't fit a Xecuter chip or provide proper detailed test results/proof then i certainly wouldn't fucking trust their own install diagrams or anything else coz so far it seems to be all bollocks from SmartXX

Yes Xecuter made some strange statements about the 1.6's Lframe & all that but unless SmartXX can show us anything they are gonna be remebered for all the wrong reasons as the " modchip muppets " in my book

well if it is a 1.4/1.5 with hynix RAM we would have no bios capable of running on it, the M8plus_1.6 only works on 1.6/1.6bs, not 1.4/1.5, and the M8plus_1.0-1.5 probably doesnt have the hynix timing in it

48 Hours since smartxx "claimed" theres a 1.7 and still no word from them,or enay other group,I think we can now officially say: Theres no 1.7,and they only did it as a marketing scam...

Dosn't this seem a little odd to you?

What are the chances that a development team would get a 1.7 before anyone else?

Usualy it is some poor noob that is posting on this sight, for the first time, saying "so I opened up this xbox and the board dosn't match any of the pics in the guides"...

sounds a little fishy to me....

I bet you all are right. I don't have much love for smartxx. I mean that guy leaked the M8 bios for the 1.6 beofre it was ready and caused peoples xboxs to fry. if MS did another video encoder I would be very shocked. Nvidia has stop production of the graphic chip so making a new encoder is point less. your not going to have much product to test it on. I bet its just a small change like the differance of a 1.4 to 1.5. MS will soon stop making xbox's because Nvidia has now stop production. the only think I could see and I doubt it would have happened. if some how they made a new xbox that used a ATI chip that emulated the nvidia spec's I hightly doubt that though knowing MS. Because that would cost them alot of money.

uhm... You can't tell an xbox-version by looking at the dvd-player.. no way..

You have to open it and/or check the kernel
