Naujieji XBOX 360 modeliai jau greit!

Next Xbox 360 Designs are 'Jasper', 'Opus' and 'Valhalla'

>> From seattlepi.nwsource.com:

There is not one but two secret Xbox cats that Microsoft has kept in the bag. Currently there are three more Xbox 360 motherboards in the works right now. They are.. dun dun dun.. Jasper, Opus and Valhalla.

 

It's well known that the next Xbox 360 motherboard is going to be Jasper and it going to have both a 65 nm CPU and a 65 nm GPU. Jasper is going to be a major advancement in reliability since it is going to run much quieter than previous Xbox 360 systems. Jasper's reliability is in part to the fact that there is no place on the motherboard that is going to be running as hot or as much power as previous Xbox 360 systems, also it might run a lot quieter since it will not need as much power.

Jasper is very real and they are testing prototypes right now. Word from Redmond is that progress on Jasper is going well and on schedule and you can expect it fall of 2008.

 

The Opus project is a "Falcon" generation motherboard designed to fit in a Xenon case. You can expect an 90 nm GPU but a 65 nm CPU. Opus solves a major hardware recycling and inventory problem since Microsoft currently has millions of used Xenon cases from RRODed dead systems and this lets them use most of the good parts from the millions of dead Xenons but with a newer tested more reliable motherboard.

There is no HDMI on Opus since the Xenon cases don't have openings for the port. Opus is a third generation Xbox 360 in the case of a first.

 

Now they are also in the very early stages of designing the fourth generation Xbox 360 called Valhalla.

At the heart of a Valhalla Xbox 360 is a combined 65nm CPU and 65nm GPU on a unified super chip. This also would only need one cooling system and be much quieter and hopefully more reliable than previous Xbox systems (if they include hardware JTAG testing reporting into the design).

It is really early in the design process but there are engineers at Microsoft working on it as you are reading this.

 

Microsoft has planned on near annual changes to the Xbox 360 motherboard generation designs.

First was the Xenon motherboard from 2005-06, then followed by the Zephyr motherboard 2006-2007, then the Falcon Motherboard 2007-now. Probably later on this year we will see the Jasper Motherboard 2008-2009. Then then comes Valhalla the year four motherboard in late 2009 or mid 2010.

Versti (ypač ilgas naujienas) paymanijoje nėra privaloma, laikas pačiam anglų mokytis būtų

bet istikruju tai nesamone tai durneliai iskart galejo padaryt normalius xbox'us o ne pirma defektyvius parduot o poto isleist normalius ir reklamoje rodytu pirkit nauja xbox'a nes jusu xbox'as gai*ys

ciuju apsauga pagerino, tai ir naujus x'us isleidzia

taigi parase, kad sugrizo kruva uzRRODintu x360, tai nebeturi kur detaliu tu kist:) ides nauja motinine ir vel atgal sius kaip nauja produkta.

tik nelabai supratau kurie ten HD netures ir del kokiu priezasciu..

o tiksla turet "kuo naujseni xbox" nematau, nes vistiek visi geimai tures eit tiek ant senu, tiek ant nauju vienodai. na nebent del tikimybes mazesnes RROD pasigaut

Man tai Xbox360 taisymo ir nauju versiju isleidimo schema primena Windows lopijimo strategija. Nusivaziuos tie Xbox iki Windows Vista lygio kai jau pats Microsoft nebesupras ka jie daro ir kaip daro.

Na nepykit, bet mano nuomone neturi Xbox ateities. Per daug marketinginiu klaidu yra pridaryta ir va kas liecia HD raiskos technologijas tai... na velkasi tas Xbox visaip noredamas itikti pirkejui, bet vis pastato ne tame rinkos segmente koja... prisiminkit kad ir HD-DVD grotuvus...

kaip visada stumia ant xbox visi tie kurie jo neturi.... o kas turi tai vargu ar jiems idomu ar isleis nauja su nekaistaciu ar blue ray ar dar kuom... koks skirtumas nusipirkai turi ir zaidi ... kokios problemos?

toks Xfiniti pasakojo, kad jau turi Jasperius

as tai nezinau, laukiu dabar jaspero.. nes kiek girdejau tai bus atnaujintos tos technologijos nauja cpu ir gpu architektura taigi biski greitesnis.. nzn kaip jus xebra bet as laukiu jaspero...

P.S linka i sita naujiena as wakar ar uzvakar imeciau i playmanijos skype kanala

o del tu naujoviu tai cia mus lietuvius dar ilgai nepalies, ir tai islosit tik del 2 dalyku, garso ir energijos sanaudu, nu gal dar dizaino, jei MS nores kazka patobulint.

na tai siuo metu aktuoliausi klausimai yra tikslios specifikacijos tiksli data pasaulyje ir lietuvoje ir kaina ^_^
