it depends on what version xbox you have and whether or not you want to solder. if you are planning on soldering i recommend the x3(best chip) now if you are gonna go solderless and have xbox version 1.0-1.5 i would also recommend the x3...but if you have a 1.6 xbox go with the solderless xenium(xenium spice)...there is not a solderless option for x3 on 1.6 xbox. both are good chips, the best 2 as a matter of fact, but the x3 is by far the better chip.
