The '''Elpis''' motherboard is a revision created by Microsoft out of a [[Xenon (Motherboard)|Xenon]], with exception to the GPU and the software. Elpis motherboards were used for refurbishing defective Xenons up until 2011.  
'''Elpis''' is a [[motherboard]] created by Microsoft by modifying a [[Xenon (Motherboard)|Xenon]], and has a different [[GPU]] and software. Elpis motherboards were used for refurbishing defective Xenons up until 2011.  


Various part numbers have been spotted on stickers placed on the top edge of Elpis boards. They include:

* The board uses the 7xxx series [[CB]] bootloader instead of the 1xxx series used on Xenon
* The board uses the 7xxx series [[CB]] bootloader instead of the 1xxx series used on Xenon
** The reason for this is unknown as the 1xxx series bootloaders work just fine with Elpis
** This is due to clashing of [[GPU#Xenos_C2|C2]] GPU and [[Samsung RAM#K4J52324QC-BC14|Samsung QC]] RAM, and to ensure the correct [[HWINIT]] is used

Elpis is a motherboard created by Microsoft by modifying a Xenon, and has a different GPU and software. Elpis motherboards were used for refurbishing defective Xenons up until 2011.

Notable Differences

The Elpis GPU
  • The 90nm Y1 GPU has been replaced with the 90nm Elpis GPU
  • The board uses the 7xxx series CB bootloader instead of the 1xxx series used on Xenon
    • This is due to clashing of C2 GPU and Samsung QC RAM, and to ensure the correct HWINIT is used
