gamerboy Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I'm going to buy a new 360 today and wanted to know exactly what i am looking for to get a Jasper chipset model. Jasper boards can be identified by their power rating, as they use 12.1 amps on the 12 volt line. Falcon boards used 14.2 amps and original Xenon and Zephyr boards used 16.5 amps. The amp rating can be found on the label on the back of the console and is a good way to identify a Jasper before you buy it. The ".1A" from "12.1A" may be visible through the packaging cutout on a new console without opening the box, identifying if the console is indeed a Jasper or not. so what i pulled off wikipedia. Is that correct and that is all i need to look for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
