As you may know, Jasper is now coming out with 65nm die, while older systems had a 90nm die, appears to be fixing all of those Red Ring of Death woes. It has also been released that the new Jasper systems have a 150-watt power supply, and a smaller graphics chip, so the system won’t heat up as much, which will lead to less system failures.
This all sounds really freaking great huh? All of your old 360 problems solved, everything’s all good right?
One user on the Official XBox forums had this to say after he bricked his first 360 and rented a new one:
“Guess what? No RRoD but now the DVD drive isn’t working on that. I’m starting to get the feeling that [NXE] wasn’t tested enough with all of the different types of 360 hardware out there. A lot of the components used are different depending on when the console was manufactured.”
So, it’s still unconfirmed whether the new chipset in the Jasper actually relieves these glitches, but we can all hope so.
