    Like many of the 'originals' on this thread, I'm going to take my bow too. Jaspers are getting easier to find everyday. Enjoy your 360s - I'm sure some of us will be back when the next mobo comes out or MS's next console starts the rumor machine going. God Bless.

    You almost certainly have a falcon, only a MAJOR snafu at the factory would lead it to be otherwise. Falcons are much more reliable then older rev mobos, though right around now they have been out in full force for over a year. Time will tell, but indications thus far relate fairly decent...

    Highly probable from NewEgg as they are mainting skus for both older Arcades and XGX-00019 arcades. Dell on the other hand, might still be hit / miss. I've put both skus in their search engine and end up on the same product page.

    For what its worth, I was just in the Best Buy in Princeton NJ. They have a ton of Jasper Arcades. The first 5 I looked at were all Jaspers. I STILL think the best deal in town is getting a Arcade, then buying the Live pack from Amazon. You end up w/ a Pro and a 3 month LIVE card. One...

    And you would know this having taken apart many of them. :) Thanks for clearing that up !!! Any luck on the Falcon / Jasper heat analysis?

    You have a Jasper. The PSU is a 175 watt version, but that is only b/c MS is working down their inventory of PSUs. Don't sweat it, the console is a Jasper.

    I've never heard of a console marked 14.2 and a power connector on the console being a Jasper. Are you sure the console has the 'split bar' on top inside the power connector? This doesn't add up.

    Nah. I was the first to report a Jasper Pro on this board, and my fame lasted about 3 pages. :P

    That's the spirit. Somebody needs to carry the torch for those of us that have laid them down. Let us know what you find.

    You are quite welcome !!!! Hell, the Arcade is so cheap I have this unfounded unneccessary urge to buy one as a spare. Compelete waste of money,but for some reason I can't shake it.

    I asked this same question many pages back. I 'think' JasperHunter was working on finding out the answer, but I'm not positive.

    Well, you know what THIS means don't ya? Time to get a Falcon and do a heat comparison, then return the Falcon. What will this gain you/us? A. You will know for sure, beyond even a Anandtech disection, what the temp diffs are between the two mobo revs B. You can say you've now owned 6...

    I wonder if you would have the same 'pull away' reaction from any of the more modern video cards that employ heat sinks ... ???
