How to easily spot a Falcon Xbox 360, just look at the UPC

A gaming site has posted up an easy method to spot an improved Falcon Xbox 360 hardware unit. All you have to do is check the UPC symbol and hope to see 175W which is the wattage for the newer power supply. Why would you want a Falcon based model? Well because they use much less power and are quieter and should reult in a lower chance of failure.

All you need to do is look at the UPC symbol and see the 175W, which is the wattage for the newer power supply. This confirms that a Falcon chip is inside and not the Zephyr, which is an older model.

The Falcon chipped models have a much less chance of failing due to aluminum heat sinks and uses much less power so will be a lot quieter.
