Well I tried finding the Kreon firmware for them, but I was too stupid I guess. Link me to a firmware release and I will buy it.

I'm ordering the Videocard, Ram, HDD, and DVD Burner from newegg.com today. I will get the mobo, CPU, and the Tuniq Tower in a few days and I already have the Case and PSU.
Originally posted by 21122112: Originally posted by abuzar1: 21122112 and Creaky, I am talking about COPYING XBOX 360 GAMES. lol It's not for burning and it's not for the regular Xbox. The Samsung is one of the few drives that can be flashed with Kreon firmware so it can READ 360 games.
I have basically NO IDEA when it comes to DVD drives. That Samsung seems to work well for people and it's one of the four drives that are capable of reading Xbox 360 games so that's why I'm getting it.
When you burn to a disc that is what your doing.Copying it to the disc. You have to copy the Xbox game and Burn it to a disc, Then have it booktype to DVD-ROM. DVD-ROM is what all games are. That is there format.
Maybe im missing something here in what your trying to say about the games. I havent done it, but I know alot of people who have. It doesnt have to be a specific drive just one that can bitset.
I already burn Xbox 360 DVDs. I know any Dual Layer DVD burner that can bitset will work. I'm talking about putting a RETAIL XBOX 360 game in my COMPUTER and reading the image so I can burn it. Do you kind of understand now?
SHAF, I think the Pioneers are just the recommended BURNERS for XBox 360 games. I don't think they can RIP the game.
I completely understand what your saying. but your not understanding what im saying.ANY drive can read them to file. Not just a certain one.
I guess its the addict thing you were talking about. if your not one your not considered as knowledgeable enough to engage into a conversation here.
It seems to me,I could live my life A lot better than I think I am,I guess thats why they call me,They call me the workin man
I guess thats what I am

21122112, I wasn't aware that you could use any DVD drive. So how do I go about doing it? Can you link me to a tutorial or guide?

I might end up getting one of those samsungs later. Unless 21122112(I'm calling you numbers from now on) cares to elaborate on how they can use any drive.

All you burner peeps. Sony NEC Optiarc 7200 is good right? I'm trying to order today and I'm a cheapskate so I'll buy this one over the Pioneer. I don't need the BEST anyway.
Greg, they are just backups.

This is unfortunately true because titles are determined by the number of posts rather than what you know. I suspect that AD has lost a lot of really good people on that basis alone. Sometimes having addict status isn't all that it's cutup to be either. I came close to ending my Sophocles nick a few months ago and returning with a new one or just quitting altogether. Perhaps you know someone who's done exactly that. I guess some of us have been at this for too long and it's nearing time to move on to another distraction.

Are you seriously going to jump on me for being a prick because of a silly little Title? I misunderstood what you said, I'm not ignoring you or looking down upon you. I'll be the first to admit I don't know all that much about computers, video game consoles, etc.

Abuzar
I don't think that he meant anything by it and I was just ruminating back over the last 5 year of being here, and the changes I've seen. There are a lot of addicts on AD who probably have a hard time just tying their shoes, but they feel comfortable giving advice without really knowing what they're talking about.

yeah the benq drives are good drives ( i have a 1650) its just to bad they are not being made anymore.
abuzar1
the lite-on drives are good burners as well. ( just like everybody in this thread has stated already.) i also have a Sony Optiarc 7200 but i have done a few burn's on it and they play fine. however have not done a dl dvd+r on it yet so i can't say how well it works with them.

Heck, while we are on the subject, we are discussing quality burners so why not media?
I used to use Taiyo Yuden but my burner never liked them so i have a big stack of about 90 lying around. I have had good success with using the Sony DVD media(Accucore)
Any other media i should keep an eye out for?

The max i could get my Quad to with 800Mhz(oced it to a number i cant remember)ram was 3.6
I had to push quite a big vcore threw(less than 1.5 though) but i need this quad to last so i stopped. I could have maybe made more but the ram couldnt oc for the speed i needed.
I have found a sweet spot with this board though. If you set the FSB to 333 you get a nice 3 Ghz and have it rock solid stable at Full Load with a 1.3250v core. Which is like 1.298 after v droop.
As for voltage options, i can't complain really as i don't do much ocing anymore. I'll find a sweet spot like the above and leave it there.

They're both good memory but if I was going to overclock I would go with the one that is rated for higher bandwidth the OCz.
