Case differences aside, the biggest differences with the board include the XCPU missing the IHS, the digital audio out port being removed and a single USB port missing.

Xbox360 winchester-i necə quraşdıra bilərəm

We can tell quite a bit of information about what type of console and motherboard we have from the outside housing of the console.
There are 3 major revisions of the Xbox 360 console:

Did you know there are 8 different Xbox 360 motherboard verisons. These are (in launch order) the Xenon, Opus, Zephyr, Falcon, Jasper, Trinity, Corona and Winchester motherboards.

Now you know if you have a Phat, Slim, or Slim E – how to figure out motherboard version?

Phats:

Now that you know if your console has HDMI, we can look at the power socket on the console and compare to this image:

So, essentially what you want to see is the precense of a HDMI port, plus either of the two power sockets to the right side of the image above which would mean that you have a Falcon or Jasper console, which are essentially the only Phats worth modding.

Once you’ve confirmed you’ve got a Falcon or Jasper console you can visit our RGH Falcon or Jasper Guide for detailed instructions on how to mod your console.

Slim S:

To be 100% certain you’ll need to open up the console and inspect the motherboard.
The quickest check to tell a Trinity from a Corona is to examine the J2C1 and J2C3 headers (JTAG header).

In a Trinity motherboard the headers are vertical and paralell to each other like this:

If you have a Trinity console, there is no need to check anything further. All Trinities, even the ones that have the 4gb add-on, have a 16mb nand and are modded in the same way. One trinity is the same as any other. You can now go follow the guide for Trinity consoles.

In a Corona motherboard one header is vertical and the other is rotated 90 degress to be horizontal like this:

If you have a Corona console, you’ll still need to determine if you have a 4gb Nand or a 16mb Nand. This is easily determined by simply powering up the console, visiting the storage menu, and looking for a ~4gb onboard storage unit. If an onboard storage appears then you have a 4gb Corona and should use our 4gb Corona Guide and if you don’t show an onboard storage then you have a 16mb Corona nand and should use our 16mb Corona Guide.

If for some reason you’re unsure about checking the storage menu on the console, or want to be really-extra-double-sure that you have either a 4gb or a 16mb Corona you can visually identify them by inspecting the nand chip on the console:

Slim E:

The Slim E series console has two motherboard possibilities, and it is important to determine which one is in the console you want to modify:

Here is an example Corona XCGPU:

Here is an example of a Winchester XCGPU:

The bad news here is if you have a Winchester, you’re just out of luck. As of today in 2018 there is still no method to do any hardware modificaitons to the Winchester console.

If you have a Corona console, you’ll still need to determine if you have a 4gb Nand or a 16mb Nand. This is easily determined by simply powering up the console, visiting the storage menu, and looking for a ~4gb onboard storage unit. If an onboard storage appears then you have a 4gb Corona and should use our 4gb Corona Guide and if you don’t show an onboard storage then you have a 16mb Corona nand and should use our 16mb Corona Guide. There is no difference in the modding process for a Corona that was in an E series slim vs one that was in an S series slim.

If for some reason you’re unsure about checking the storage menu on the console, or want to be really-extra-double-sure that you have either a 4gb or a 16mb Corona you can visually identify them by inspecting the nand chip on the console:

Winchester

The Xbox 360 Winchester motherboard was introduced along with the Xbox 360 E Slim during the Xbox One introduction in 2013. The board derives heavily from the previous Corona configuration with a few small hardware differences and security fixes.

History

Hardware

The Winchester board is nearly identical to the previous Corona models with a few small differences. Most notably, this console is incompatible with RGH/RGH2.

The Winchester board was exclusively used in the Xbox 360 E Slim model. Early Xbox 360 E Slim models used a final revision Corona board slightly modified in order to liquidate their stock.

Case differences aside, the biggest differences with the board include the XCPU missing the IHS, the digital audio out port being removed and a single USB port missing.

Stress Kit

There was never a full Xbox 360 E Slim or Winchester based XDK available for developers. There are a few rare stress boards that were most likely used for evaluating the motherboard before it was released at retail. The Winchester Stress kits look identical to retail Xbox 360 E Slims with stress wires hanging from the side and an internal asset sticker on the side.

There was never a sidecar designed for the Winchester board although the slim sidecar daughterboard is present. The Winchester Stress Kit is also locked to 512MB of RAM usage. They may have 1GB of RAM but it isn’t usable. These Stress Kits all report as “Test Kits” although it is unknown if adding a Sidecar will convert it to a full Development Kit.

The lowest recovery that can run on these Stress Kits is 21256. [1]

thought winchester boards required a cpu swap.

Never heard of that. But this is the new way of modding 360s. Chipless is the way to go.

I thought it could with the cpu swap, which is why I mentioned it, but it’s not practical.

Can you back that up with your experience and facts of you doing exactly what this guy did? Anyone can state anything is a fake with no facts. Perhaps a video that shows proof of your experience in this and attempt to do exactly this the way he does. I think the people would like to see your proof. I know I would.
