well, that's in dire need of a dusting. Also interesting modchip setup

much better! plus a shot of how the modchip is soldered in

good news, apparently this is an 1.6 Xbox that doesn't need its clock cap removed (and will, in fact, not boot without one)

put some Arctic MX4 on there, that should be leagues better than the tarry mess Microsoft decided was a good TIM
