Fab C (-003)

Not taped out. Purpose not known.

  • Part Number: X801054-003

Fab D (-004)

Updated Voltage Regulation. Little else is known.

  • Part Number: X801054-004

Fab E (-005)

First motherboard to use Waternoose DD1 CPU out of the factory. Typically uses A11N2 GPU, E2 Southbridge, and B00 ANA. Removes Shiva support.

  • Part Number: X801054-005

Fab F (-006)

Updated Voltage Regulation. Little else is known.

  • Part Number: X801054-006

Fab G (-007)

The first PCB used for Beta refresh apart of the Partner program. Typically uses Waternoose DD1 CPU, A11N2 or A21N2 GPU, E2 or G0 Southbridge, and B00 ANA. Removes several Debug LEDs.

  • Part Number: X801054-007

X801054-007.jpg

Fab H (-008)

First motherboard to use Waternoose DD2 CPU out of the factory. Typically uses A32 GPU. Uses G0 Southbridge and B02 ANA. Most CPUs are fused to 3.2GHz. Significant minor fixes.

  • Part Number: X801054-008

X801054-008.jpg

Fab J (-009)

Part number changed to X803600. Uses Waternoose DD2 CPU, A32 GPU, G0 Southbridge, and B02 ANA. The CPU is fused to 2.8GHz or 3.2GHz. Fixed easily breakable IR sensor. Removes Titan support and almost all Debug LEDs. Adds additional but unused fan header. Most boards have an X-patch applied to fix a bug in GPU A32. Many 2.8GHz fused units were refurbished with 3.2GHz fused CPUs and used as Development Kits.

  • Part Number: X803600-009
