Xbox 360 psu question...Updated.... Got a core system...
hi guys :)
does anyone know if you can use "any" 360 psu with "any" 360, or do you need a specific psu for the different chipsets ?

Nor sure about the different chipsets but I have an "original" 360 core and last year I got my son a 360 arcade and his PSU won`t plug into my 360 because it is a different shape :/
If your question is about power distribution etc then I am afraid I have been no help whatsoever

They have changed the PSU`s lately so that they take less power. I think there are about 3 different types in circulation.
RE: Xbox 360 psu question...
i remember reading on xbox-scene that the old PSU`s (203W) are forward
compatible with the newer 360`s (175W and 150W) due to the 360 itself
only drawing the power that it needs.
it doesn`t work the other way around though, for obvious reasons.

Yes but it may just run very fast for a very short period of very hot time. ;)

Chris, i couldn`t find the article on xbox-scene, so a quick google found this:-
answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090120090852AAUQXJD
no doubt a bit more digging would come up with something a little bit
more scientific?

RE: Xbox 360 psu question...
cheers, i`m only asking cos it looks like i can pick up a refurbed 360 for about 25 notes on fleabay, but thats just for the console, psu`s seem to go for about 8 quid, i allready got a vga lead i can use, so then its just a second hand controller & a HD, & i`m business, (probably somewhere in the region of 60quid alltogether)
i know it seems like a long arse way around, but given my money situation, i`ll take however i can get it lols,...

RE: Xbox 360 psu question...
well, i quite desperatly need to cheer myself up, & find something to do today, so i went for a walk around farnworth, (my local town centre, which is deppresing in itself lol) & found myself mooching in crack converters, much to my surprise i saw an affordable 360 core system for £59.99 inc 6 months warrenty i beat them down a bit & walked away with the console, a wireless controller, memory card & call of duty 4 for a total of £70, kinda destroyed 3 months hard work getting my credit card back into the red, but f*ck it.....
i`m gonna look for a dirt cheap hard drive in a few weeks, then i`ll see about getting my xbox live account re-started,
see you on there soon i hope...
