You could get a modchip for about 20$ that will do fine. That would be DuoX 2... If you want someyhing more advanced and "trusted" I wouls say Xecuter 2.6 or Xecuter 3...

for more info about anything take a look at www.xbox-scene.com

Im guessing you have the DuoX 2 it supports EVO X right were i can change the backgrounds and i can put emulators on it right and does the to modchip effect the speed of the emulator?

It is the bios you use that "supports" different dashboards. Any EvoX or Xecuter bios will have ExolutionX dashboard.

Actually my modchip is not as good as DuoX 2, but if I were to chip my box today I would probably get one. I am currently using Aladdin Advance with iND-bios 5003.06 on my xbox.

The modchip/bios won't affect emulation/game speeds.
EvoX dashboard will work fine no matter the chip/bios but I prefer Avalaunch as dash as I find it more useful.

You are good at soldering and can avoid splashes/burned traces/touching the board with pen etc?

I would say a new xenium ice chip is the best for a beginner. It can be sodered or be solderless a great chip that everyone likes. Google it for reviews. I bought 3 for friends I have an extra 2 they go for about $50 not cheap but the easiest and safiest for beginners. If you have any questions let me know.
