The latest version of the Xbox 360, codenamed Jasper, is apparently circulating. A user on the Xbox-Scene forums posted photos of his new system, that is allegedly of the Jasper variety. Jasper uses a new motherboard and a new version of the 360 GPU, which is fabricated from a 65-nanomater process. The previous iteration of the Xbox 360 used a 90nm GPU. The 65nm GPU allows the system to run cooler and use less power.
The photos look legit. The power supply is the strongest piece of evidence here. The previous version of the Xbox 360 required 175 watts and higher. As you can see from the photo, Jasper runs just dandy with 150 watts.
The user's system is dated October 23, 2008, which is inline with Jasper's supposed manufacture date. Do any of you guys have Jasper systems? Leave a comment and let me know. If you've had an older version, does your Jasper system run noticeably cooler? And also, color me and my 360 Elite ("Falcon", I believe) jealous.

Actually what causes the RRoD is not really overheating, but heat cycling. Meaning turning the console on and off a lot.
