SI's analysis on Xbox 360 Elite |
Listed in: Xbox 360 Tags: IBM, Taiwan, Texas, Texas Instruments
Ó
SI, just so you know, is one of the more reliable technical advisers to the microelectronics community around the globe. Some products that benefited from its expertise include Infineon, Intel, TSMC, and Texas Instruments among many others. Going back to 360 Elite, SI's technology analyst Rob Hilkes noted,
The CPU in the Xbox 360 Elite seems to be assembled in Canada whereas the CPU in the previous Xbox was marked "Taiwan." This may indicate that while the previous CPU was built on Chartered's Fab7 in Singapore and assembled in Taiwan, the CPU of the Elite may be built in IBM's Fab B323 in East Fishkill, New York and assembled at IBM's assembly facility in nearby Bromont, Quebec.
Hilkes added that the new system is using both sources. Also, the analyst added that Microsoft redesigned some aspects of the power architecture that results in a lower component count. For more info on this, watch the whole video analysis below.

The Xbox 360 Elite is a piece of shiit. The Llama.com comparison showed its the same damn machine as the original 360 with an HDMI input, 120 GB and some cables. Well what the fck is Elite about that? And for that price? Fck Microsoft for not taking the time to do this right --> wireless, 65nm chip, handjob... *****
