I have heard from several friends that you are able to put an Athlon XP proc in the XBOX? Are they on crac or can we all enjoy a newfound gaming bliss? I have not seen anything in the forum about it, just wonderin?

Does it involve the mod chip or linux?

I haven't heard anything about Athlon XP's, but I have heard of people putting faster PIII's/Celerons in 'em.

Can be done, but imagine having to desolder that cpu from the motherboard.. FUN!!! Then soldering in either the new cpu or a socket for it.

What about only unsoldering once and putting in a chip socket? then you can do what ever you want. :idea:

there is a site that sells xboxs with 1.4 celron chips in it along with mod chip preinstalled and 120gb hard drive for saving your entire games and running them from teh hd www.friendtech.com. But some of these boxes you can go on xbox live with. For more infomation you can go to www.xbox-scene.com

One thing you have to remember is when game designers make the games they specificaly design them for that hardware so even if you could theoreticly replace it you could run into decreaced functionality or little gains. Like using a 64 bit CPU with 32 bit programmed software.

Well, my preferred method of determining clock speed (and appropriate sync times) would be perfectly compatible with all upgrades. Dunno why the games like FIFA 2004 won't work...

Why would you want a faster proc on the Xbox? The games are built to run perfectly on the 733MHz proc so why would you need a faster one?

Unless you're booting Linux off it.. lol
