XBox 360 overhaul come August

 

"So that’s about it, major Xbox 360 platform overhaul coming this summer, with some time to spare for Christmas - Blu-ray, faster graphics and what is likely to be an all-round cooler console – and the thing is assembled by Pegatron Technology."

Microsoft orders 65nm Xbox 360 graphics chip

 

"The original 360 has a 90nm GPU and a 90nm CPU. Last year, console based on the 'Falcon' platform incorporated the 65nm CPU. With the debut of Jasper and its 65nm GPU, the over-heating problems - manifested most clearly in the infamous Red Ring of Death - that have plagued no small number of Xbox 360 owners will evaporate."

"Pegatron is an OEM subsidiary of Asustek (the guys behind the Eee PC), and this Chinese manufacturer is saying that they have secured a contract with Microsoft to produce a new batch of Xbox 360 home video game consoles. This normally wouldn't be a very big deal — Microsoft uses Chinese OEMs all the time — except for the fact that this latest batch of 360s are set to come with Blu-ray drives."
