Getting a new 360... Do all have FALCON?

hoping to pick one up tomorrow armed with the info that the falcons run on 175watt psu's although some were shipped with 203watt however if both the label and brick say 175watt then its confirmed to be a falcon afaik

I got that sticker on my new 360, LOT no 0741, manufacturer date is 2007-10-11 (is that October or November?), the drive IS quieter.
 
its pretty hard to tell with the naked eye tbh all i was looking for was the missing inductor then i eventually could just make out the heatsink
 
I have a mate who has one from about a year ago, so he was asking what it was like, as this is my first I have no point of referrence so will be taking mine round to his so he can compare them lol.
 
who cares about falcons etc rip the cover off and buy a cooler fan with heat sensers etc and take off the cover over the pro and g/c and put some AS5 on it and then it goes so silent i can get some sleep :D

ps if u want too know how too take off cover and the bits u need let me know and i give u the info u need.
 
Had a replacement back for a dead 360 yesterday, They sent me a fully boxed Arcade package :confused: (although my 360 had been a way for 40 days and I'd kicked up one hell of a fuss) it was a a 175 watt psu, BenQ drive Falcon. The whole thing does seem a lot quieter but it's over 40 days ago since I had a 360 on so I might have been imagining it.

P.S. How did I miss Boom Boom Rocket, there were so many things last night that I wanted to play which I hadn't been able to for ages yet I couldn't put this little gem down :(
 
LOL and you are so immature, why do you feel the need to insult people in nearly every thread you post in?

Getting a bit tiring really

This guy totally goes against the thread and says we dont need falcon, all we need to do is screw our warranties and put an added fan in our 360's. To which my reply was

Yeah screw Falcon, let's all buy new 360's rip the cover off and void our warranties.
Obviously the thread is all about the BENEFITS of falcon is it not? My reply was fine, and not a 'retort'

If you buy a new one then you will more than likely get Falcon anyway, so kind of silly retort :D
What the hell was that about? We have already established that we will more than likely get a Falcon. Mr Men plain and simply came into the thread to contradict me, like he ALWAYS does. There was no basis for his comment as my 'retort' was fully justified.

Read the FAQ, Follow that rule. Or Go Away.
Very gracious of you, why dont you also post the rules as regards to trolling for Mr Mens benefit? Why don't you go look how many thread turn to crap as soon as he posts.
 
Actually here you go, a prime example.

We are having a perfectly fine conversation about the fall update, in comes Mr Men who offers NOTHING to the thread and simply comments on me instead...

Sounds like a good update :)

Hopefully JBeck gets an update soon to be less of a troll :D


Just leave him, he just likes to moan about anything MS do :p

He calls ME a troll and by definition and the very nature of his post, he is the troll. what did he add to the thread? Nothing, he came in to cause trouble and to goad me, as always. And you wonder why I call him stupid? I'm sick of him and his pathetic childish comments, his failure to offer nothing except to cause trouble and to screw threads up, like this one. What also ****** me off are those of you who fail to see what he does, then back him up.

I'm out of here, these forums are not worth it anymore...
