    Sad the akira chip is burnout, don't have one of those :(

    So I've got most of the common chips now, mainly after the uncommon or just hard to find. I'd love a xenium 24k chip if anyone has one for sale though.

    I have an unused X3 but I cannot confirm or deny that it works just that it was sold to me as uninstalled with everything.

    I still have to take some pictures of some cool stuff I picked up. I dont know if it was from a modchip developer or what, but it is a bunch of blank boards, some without any hardware, some just missing the flash chip. It's cool

    this is an bit from a launch review
    It’s a nice modchip. Works as advertised, and is an improvement OS wise over it’s predecessors. I do have some beefs with it though. In some ways, I feel that the smaller size, and gimmick look of the chip sacrificed options. For example, the 24k Gold does not include solder pads, so that kills options for wire install methods, unless you want to ghetto it with a pin header and wires, which of course will look like crap, and begs the question.. why bother? Also missing from previous incarnations is the Quick Solder/Flush Mount method. Some could argue that any new Xbox consoles on the market are 1.6 or higher and aren’t good candidates for a Quick Solder method, however some people, myself included enjoyed the method and we still see a lot of older consoles where the quick solder method was a viable and useful option.

    Removing those options to make the chip smaller and cheaper to produce probably made good sense to them, but it took away options we’ve enjoyed having with Xodus products for a long time.
