Notable Differences

  • The 90nm Waternoose CPU has been replaced with the 65nm Loki CPU
  • When the revised GPUs rolled out, around March 2008, all board started using Qimonda HYB18H1G321AF-14 RAM in a 4x128MB config
  • Qimonda HYB18H512322AF-13 RAM has been replaced with Qimonda HYB18H512321BF-14
  • When the revised GPUs rolled out, Hynix HY5RS123235BFP-14 and Qimonda HYB18H512321BF-13 RAM are no longer used
  • Around March 2008, fixed GPUs started being used
  • The CPU voltage regulation is now 2 phases, down from 3 phases, but the pads and silkscreen for the third phase still remain
  • The board layout has been modified to support the 65nm CPU
  • Other small changes were made to the board layout
  • The J7G3 Titan connector on the front of the motherboard was left on the final motherboard
  • Some later boards use solid state capacitors for the CPU and GPU output filters
  • The heatpipe CPU heatsink was replaced with the aluminum CPU heatsink, however some early boards did not have this change

Specifications

Opus

The Opus motherboard is exactly the same as the Falcon, with exception to a custom A/V port that is installed, and the removal of the HDMI port. These modifications allow the Opus to fit into the casings for a Xenon. This was used for refurbishing defective consoles until the Elpis boards started being produced. The part number is also the same as Falcon.

Notable Differences

  • Removal of the HDMI port
  • Custom A/V port to fit the HDMI board layout while being able to fit into the Xenon casing
  • All Opus boards use 4x128MB Qimonda HYB18H1G321AF-14 RAM
