In todays episode we perform a one gigahertz CPU upgrade installation for this original XBOX console. We'll be testing the Microsoft XBOX out with Half-life 2 before and after the upgrade. You decide if the upgraded CPU makes a difference. Does the XBOX perform better with the new CPU upgrade?

Played the Orange box on the Xbox 360. It was very playable there! And difficult as all hell. Yet my lucky star that the ring of death was only a internet joke for us. Ended up even playing GTA 5 on the Xbox 360! True troopers of a console gen they where for us. Even the Wii gave up before the Xbox 360's. The CD/DVD reader failed on the Wii... But the Xbox 360 lived on and on. I do not think any one I knew had a DDD. They where put in a closet only to be taken out for GTA5. Lucky us? They where not lightly used... And still lasted all that time. Controllers are simply horrible for shooter games. One of this days I should try and play HF2 with a controller and see how bad one where back in the day at games. HF2 was a fantastic game! Even now it was one of the few shooter games that I ended up playing with a controller. Even GTA 4 that horrible mess of a PC port was simply worth enjoying on a proper PC with a mouse to aim. GTA 5? Aaa. It was a grate send off to console gaming. A last hura before ditching it completly. More likley to buy a Steamdeck 2 then a Xbox/PS/Nitendon't. Do not even own a handeld outside of old trusty PSP's. Linux on desktop FTW!

Awesome! the 1ghz P3 is the easiest cpu upgrade as its just Reballing no interposer adapter needed. The XBOX at 1ghz can run almost all games patched at 720p resolution! im playing MORROWIND patched at 720p with my 1ghz xbox on a 55" TV and the graphics still being good. You can also overclock the cpu by SOFTRARE too... so your 1ghz Xbox can go up to 1.4ghz!!! there is a recent overlock software for the xbox. The next steel is patch the game XBE file to make the game recognice the higher cpu speed, and enjoy.

the xbox can be upgraded to 128mb has unused ram slots, and theorically to 256mb with better chips but i dont know if any tested or a bios compatible, all xbox can work with 128mb from stock, the ram and the CPU made the xbox move 720p resolution on games and videos so is worth it if you play the original xbox on a modern HDTV, yo soy can play old games but in way better graphics.

+ 267 mhz doesn't make much sense, maybe +1 or 2 fps. So its placebo. Only upgrade to Tualatins P3 cpu like 1200 or 1400 have some sense to have better performance in some homebrew with ram upgrade, original game ignore cpu upgrade at all, or even break up. I think its some path that can unlock game performanse need to work with cpu upgrade.
