    For installing the Xeno GC Modchip can you just use wires to solder to the board then solder to the chip? Such as if you wanted the chip external or just for kicks and grins to make it easier since solder points are so small. As for myself I am not fond of soldering in that method that it shows for the Xeno GC straight from chip to board. Things can happen such as points coming loose etc.

    Thanks

    You can use wires, but soldering without, does not make any harm to the boards, soldering points does not come loose in ur lifetime unless u kick the cube like a football :)
    Even those old stereos, TVs, radios etc. have that kind of solders, and they are still working.

    Does this chip work just like the Qoob Pro, etc. with multi game support and plays all games? Is the only difference is just cheaper and not supported as well as the Qoob? I have the Qoob Pro already but was wanting to mod other console with less money.

    And how is the Xeno GC flashed? How do you go about flashing it?

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thanks
