If you want a good one go for RGH slim, or RGH Jasper.. Anything as low as jtag xenon will do the job also....

I RECOMMEND YOU BUY FROM SalaMods in the sticky of the Xbox 360 Marketplace..

Alright thanks man very much appreciated but what else are they used for ?

If you don't know what else they can be used for, don't get one.
Wtf.

I wasn't talking to you kid

Um, what? What do you mean the difference is lasting time? I think you'll find that JTAG's are no more prone to RROD, than an RGH is. In fact, if anything, RGHes over-heat more than JTAG's do. In my experience, my xenon JTAG ran cooler than my Falcon RGH, although that won't always be the case. You've also literally just told OP to go with ANY console. "derp, em, Slims iz good, but xenons good too, derp".

Do you even know what you're talking about? Their actually IS a difference between Jtag and RGH consoles.



OP-The main difference between RGH and JTAG consoles are the boot times. JTAG consoles are all insta-boot, however, RGH consoles can sometimes take upwards of a minute or even 2 minutes to boot. I've heard a lot of stories of RGH2 Falcon's having boot times above 2 minutes. I, personally, have a Slim dual nand which boots in less than 5 seconds almost every time. Another difference is the wiring, the installs are completely different. It is much cheaper to do a JTAG install but it is trickier, RGH installs are easier to do but cost a little extra. In the end, both consoles will run the same. They both run unsigned code and both run the same programs/tools. In all honesty, the best console to get is probably a Jasper JTAG. This console would be less prone to RROD than any other PHAT console and is probably as good as a slim(RROD wise). Also, it would be insta-boot, so you wouldn't have to wait a while for it to start. PHAT consoles are also cheaper than slims(the majority of the time) so it's good if you're on a budget. However, if you don't have a lot of cash to spend, just stick with a xenon JTAG. YES, they are more prone to RROD than any other console but if you take care of it and don't run it 5 hours a day, every day, then it should be fine. My xenon JTAG lasted 2 years before I sold it on and it was still running perfectly when I sold it, then again, yours could die after 2 weeks, their is always that risk with xenons.
