Xbox 360 Transplant

I don't get what you mean by "shot", but if you mean dead I really doubt it is. Seeing as if I go through with this itll be unsoldiered eitherway, when reattached I'll just resoldier it back on, which would hopefully and most likely fix the issues it has.

EDIT: the previous owner said the CPU just had an overheating problem so al should be good if I did transplant, though I think I'll just sell it off.

 

Xenon.7 any news?

 

Anybody know if he continued doing so?
He seems to be in-active.

 

I was the first person to really dip into this, and if I recall correctly many people told me it was a stupid idea, then turned right around and asked the same question when their xbox went teets up

Anyway, the conclusion to this is quite simple.

The pinouts of the nand and the cpu are different with traditional retail mobo's however I have recently decided to dip back into this as well this is the newest topic here and with the new jasper motherboard the pinouts are the same! anyway, should work with a steady hand.

Case closed.

 

Do you really have any idea what you are talking about? The 65nm cpu and gpu are completely different in size (physical size on the motherboard) how on earth do you think they would work? Unless you had a falcon devkit, which I doubt many people have.

Also, I compared motherboard revisions between my kit and an old launch console I have and the motherboard revisions were identical. If I were to swap the cpu and nand they would work.

The real question is whether a zephyr and a Xenon have the same CPU bracket.

 

How on earth are you going to wire it? Then, in doing so, how will you cool the chip?

 

People have already found that unmounting the gpu/cpu and re balling is an effective way to solve the ring of death, the only problem is you need very specialized tools to do it correctly.

The main question no one can seem to answer is that if this works with different motherboard types. We do know however this works with identical motherboard revisions and that swaping the cpu with the nand does make the console boot.
