Xenon
The original Xbox 360 configuration used in the initial Premium and Core machines released in the end of November 2005. These are also know as the RRoD (Red Ring of Death) machines.
- IBM 90 nm CPU
- ATI 90 nm GPU and on-chip DRAM
- Small GPU cooler
- Standard CPU cooler
Zephyr
Zephyr was the first revision with HDMI connector and it was introduced with the Xbox 360 Elite in May 2007.
- Updated motherboard layout
- HDMI connector
- New 120 GB hard drive option
- Extended GPU cooler
Falcon
All Xbox 360 Premium machines and Arcade machines manufactured August 2007 introduced the new 65 nm CPU. The motherboard is based on Zephyr and the lower power requirements of the CPU results in fewer components necessary for power management. Elite machines will eventually be updated when the initial stock is sold out. Xbox 360 packages with LOT number 0734 or higher will most likely be Falcon machines.
- IBM 65 nm CPU
- Bigger and enhanced CPU cooler
- No more X-Clamps to fasten the cooling elements
- Fewer voltage regulators, capacitors and inducers
Jasper
Jaster will be released in late 2008 and the GPU and the embedded DRAM memory chip will be updated to 65 nm to reduce cost and heat/power usage further.
- ATI 65 nm GPU with on-chip 65 nm DRAM memory
