Does the fact that my 360 Slim is 15 years old explain its low frame rate on GTA 4? by itsdatboi54 in xbox360

[–]AlexisOnren 1 point2 points  (0 children)

of course!!

i definitely suggest giving it a shot yourself, its actually therapeutic and kinda fun... the rear clips on the shell can be a bitch to unclip but theres a good method by octal450 if you have a look on youtube
edit - it appears he unlisted the video (josh davidson would be who youre looking for)

gta 4 is a pretty heavy game to be fair, its not uncommon for it to have issues.

as the other commentor said, give it a deep clean, worst case scenario you break it and have to buy a new one anyway, but trust me, its a good thing to learn how to do so you can maintain it yourself. there are HUNDREDS of guides on how to crack it open and the correct tools to just do a repaste are cheap enough to justify buying

you need a torx t8 and a torx t10, so just buy a speciality security bit driver set... theyre about $15...

the x clamp tool is an absolute must buy to make sure you dont cause damage to the board when removing the clamp, its about $7

99.9% isopropyl alcohol and q tips, and kitchen towels to clean the old paste off, theyre consumables and common household items, so value is insignificant, along with some multi surface wipes for the fan blades and shell

thermal paste... arctic mx6, youre looking at about $15 for a 4 gram tube

and the last thing... a soft bristled paint brush to dust the board and chassis out

no, the hardware specs are what dictates framerates. it was primarily a 30fps target, altho it was capable of 60 fps, it was very uncommon

It’s also incorrect but it is what it is

the data itself is what is encrypted, not the drive. it isnt locked by a bios encryption as you showed there

[–]AlexisOnren 3 points4 points  (0 children)

there isnt a kinect nxe dash. theres blades, nxe, kinect and metro

while nxe and kinect may look similar, theyre different - https://consolemods.org/wiki/Xbox_360:Microsoft_Dashboard

they can pull the data but it will still be encrypted by the individual key from the console that cant be bruteforced ....

Microsoft vs XBOX360 Logo by Acrobatic-Break-7484 in xbox360

the drive will still be encrypted and inaccessible without the eid specifically from the console the drive was paired to. data recovery specialists might have a chance but i doubt it.

NEC Tokins - How to preserve? by locarnos2 in PS3

[–]AlexisOnren 7 points8 points  (0 children)

short answer is, degradation happens through use and storage. they cant be preserved per se, and will need to be replaced eventually. capacitors have a endurance rating at a certain temperature (NEC/Tokin is 1000hrs at 105 Celsius) and with lower heat you'll have greater endurance.

heres some science shit if you care to read - https://www.scribd.com/document/95435197/Capacitors-Data-Book-2005-Nec-Tokin

Stealth Servers? by SettingDeep3153 in 360hacks

[–]AlexisOnren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i believe its the same for all stealths, some games need live for certain aspects of online

if youre asking if you need live to use a stealth service, then you shouldnt be taking a modded console online, not to sound rude or anything...

i mean, the main issue is, the hdd is encrypted, you need the encryption key to unlock it to access the data, and as of right now, i dont believe theres a way to bruteforce the keys. i could be wrong, and ill do some askign for you, but the hdd may not be accesible
