Specifications

Variations

Jasper_A0

First Jasper version, uses the XSB southbridge. Only used for EV, never used in production retail units.

Jasper_A1

Same as Jasper_A0, but with the PSB southbridge. This is the version that was used in production.

Advanced

An Advanced board with the Zeus GPU

Advanced, or Jasper Advanced, is a slightly modified Jasper_A1 for the Xbox 360-GB Development Console and its prototypes. Support for 1GB of RAM was added by routing the 13th addressing line. Other minor changes and cleanup were made. Early versions use the Zeus GPU, while later boards used Kronos.

Tonasket

Tonasket, initially known as Jasper_B, is a revision of Jasper. Changes include use of the Kronos GPU and board layout cleanup.
