Rumour: Jasper Xbox 360 On The Way | |
|

The Xbox 360 is set to get its innards updated with a new motherboard code-named 'Jasper', according to The Xbox 360 Uncloaked author, Dean Takashi. According to Takashi, the motherboard will feature a 65 nanometre graphics chip from ATI technologies (reduced from 90nm), as well as smaller memory chips. The new motherboard, apparently, will begin to feature in new 360s from next August. This might not seem like a big deal at first glance, but the smaller graphics chip would put Microsoft in a position where it could potentially cut the price of its console again. In a nutshell, the 65nm process produces a better yield of chips with fewer having to be discarded due to deficiencies, bringing down production costs per chip. For a fuller discussion of the ins and outs of the 65nm process see SPOnG's report from March. | ||
