If you buy directly from him, these are the newest prices:

1, Secondhand complete boards already done with 1.4G/512K+128M: 220 USD;
2, You can send your board to me to get the upgrade (to 1.4G/512K+128M),
the price : 175 USD, Working time: max 4 days
3, You can also send your board to me to get the upgrade (to 1.4G/512K only ),
the price : 160 USD, Working time: max 4 days
4, Please notice my prices are included already the postal cost by DHL,
the PaYPal withdraw cost (For Chinese citizen, PayPal & the Intermedial banks
will take so much ),and the special DIY heatsink for 1.4G CPU..
5, The board I send you is a secondhand board, as now there are no complete
new boards in the market.

I didn't buy from him, so that's not what I paid. Also, a lot of this money is just for the shipping.

$175 for something beyond my skill level is not half bad. I don't have the equipment to do this sort of work nor the experience, too expensive.

But so is an XBox that is entirely a novelty at this point in time.

Hey can someone tell me what the main advantage of have this board installed?
Will you be able to play HD DIVX files etc?

[splith]

XBMC mainly.

remeber, most of it goes for posatge costs so it's more like 75$ for the RAM and CPU Upgrade

XBMC, Emulators....and yes, you can play HD but only 720p
I do also use it for pre-release software (when a normal Xbox's power isn't enough and a game freezes it mostly works with this baby^^)

Probably more likely the TSOP flash was bad and a chip will fix it. Have yet to see an XBox that FRAGs and can't be fixed with a modchip.

i have a fraged 1.3 with d0 missing(when i when to remove the wire to try a nother mod chip the d0 point on the back of the board fell of) putting the mod chip on there dose nothing still frags i might uploade some picks if ya wont to see

No kidding? You destroy d0 and no modchip will fix it.

Yeh repairing d0 isn't difficult at all, just a PITA. I've done more than I'd care to admit (apparently people don't know about the d0 point on the underside of the mobo?).
