The main difference between the modchips are they size of the bios they can have, if the chip is pre-flashed, and if the chip is flash upgradable.

Some bios are hacked to boot to a different dashboard name. So instead of booting to a file called xboxdash.xbe, it boots to somehting like evoxdash.xbe. This makes it so you don't have to change the dashboard everytime you want to play online. You can just simply turn off the chip and the xbox will boot to the original file.

Almost all modchips can have a disable switch hooked up to it, so you don't have to worry about taking the chip out everytime you want to go live.
