Porkchops, another thing you shoudl think about, how good are you at soldering? X2 lite, and pro you have to solder in place. But then again they do make pongo pins units for them. (Or is that just for the lite?) But that brings us to the Matrix. Its also uses pongo pins.


Like Quall said, you will need to know how to flash the chip if you go with the X2 pro, or the Matrix. Now I can say the Matrix is easy to flash, I dont know about the pro, never even seen one yet.

Also the Matrix has a down side to it. It can be a real pain in the ass for get lined up right on Ver 1.1 XBoxes. Also some people say their Matrix moves on them, I have not had this prob, but I think they may not have tightend the screw down tight enough to keep it from moving, only a guess.

Any way, get the X2 lite if your willing to solder 10 wires.
