Quite interesting

[gigabite]

Hey guys just looking around on g00gle and I happened to notice this quite interesting artical (http://www.consolerealm.com/Tech/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=57&mode=&order=0&thold=0)

So now the question is - are we really fixing the problem by doing the GPU or is the CPU to blame (many cases may differ)?  I know this may just have been a one off case but now it's got me thinking (could GFX errors be caused due to the CPU getting to hot, is it possible ?!) to bad I don't have a spare 360 non working - we could get TMF to re-ball ONLY a CPU (totally isolating the rest of the board)...the results would be interesting

EDIT: I forgot, I do have consoles here one with a straight 0102 and one that works but gets GFX errors I'll be doing some testing (now for the layers upon layers of protection) -  so as not to heat up anything else

look at those links - I myself have experienced a torn pad however on the GPU

Quite interesting indeed... now m$ should know where to check for quality control.
