I don know if its possible, but how about increasing performance even further beyond that of an Enhanced Xbox? For example, 1.4GHz with Pentium III. Can it be done?

–Yes, we’ve successfully upgraded it to P3–1.4GHz (512KB Cache, FSB-133 MHz), with 128 MB DDR Memory and 200 GB HDD. It’s great for the deep-pockets. However, we fear the price might be too high for the general public. (The CPU alone costs more than 2 hundred bucks)! –I don’t know too much about console game programming, but I think the games are programmed much more around the GPU (graphic chip), not the CPU. It seems to me that upgrading the GPU should give much more performance than a upgrading the CPU (of course upgrading both is optimal). If it can be done, are there any plans for it? It really depends on the type of Xbox games. For the flight simulator or grand-prix, CPU dominates these types of games; yet for first person shooting and RPG, the GPU is king. We have done some nVidia VGA overclocking for the DreamX in the lab. Its performance is impressive. However, we need to add an HSF and thermal compound. We cannot justify the added cost with the performance gain at this tim
