The Impossible OG XBOX 1.6 RAM Upgrade! | 128MB RAM Mod!
In today's video I'll be going over a mod previously thought impossible. Giving a 1.6 OG XBOX 128MB of RAM. The 1.6 revision of the XBOX removed the 4 unpopulated RAM footprints of previous XBOX revisions and thus was thought to not be able to be upgraded. That is until an OG XBOX Forum member by the name of Prehistoricman found a unique and unlikely solution. Let’s take a look!
