Jasper" (released late November 2008) used both a 65nm CPU and GPU, as well as 16, 256 or 512MB of on-board flash memory. Initially there were no digital video outputs such as DVI or HDMI on the Xbox 360; instead, HD-quality output could only be produced over YP BP R component video (used by both the 3 RCA component cable and the Japanese D-terminal cable) and later VGA (via a software update). Approximately 7GB are reserved for system use (4GB of that portion are reserved for game title caching and other hard drive specific elements in games that support the hard drive, and an additional 2GB are reserved for use by the Xbox 360 backwards-compatibility software).

By choosing an SSD, you will be able to load up your games from an external source- with a HD, it will be painfully slow and not an enjoyable experience. Each core had separate L1 caches, each containing a two-way set associative 32-Kbyte L1 instruction cache and a four-way set associative 32-Kbyte L1 data cache.

While most games are rendered natively at 720p, the video from all games can be scaled by the hardware to whatever resolution the user has set in the console's settings; from 480i NTSC and 576i PAL all the way to 1080p HDTV.

However, several major (and many minor) motherboard revisions are introduced to reduce costs and to allow them to run cooler while consuming less power. Unlike the original Xbox, voice communication is handled by the console, not by the game code, allowing for cross-game communication. It's impressive that an initially underpowered system (compared to its main competitor the PS3) pumped out good-looking games and had an impact on the industry with its emphasis on digital media distribution and online gameplay.
