We’ve been hearing quite a bit of the fabled 65nm GPU, but after months of speculation, months of waiting, months of RRODs, it seems its finally here. But will it actually fix the Xbox 360’s fatal flaw?

Well, as most of you know, the RROD was caused by hardware failure, be it overheating or the GPU coming loose from the motherboard, either way it completely bricked your system. Well, with the chip sets new 65nm architecture it runs cooler, fits snugger to the motherboard, and consumes less power, effictively killing the two above problems, or so we hope.

But what happens to those of you that purchased your Xbox 360 so long ago? Well, apparently the chipsets only been avaiable since September so it looks like your fresh outta luck if you bought your console before October 23rd of this year. But perhaps next time your console RRODs (because its almost inevitable at this point) the Microsoft repair center will give you the 65nm upgrade?  We can only hope.
