How to find out chipset without opening up?
« on: October 12, 2008, 12:16:16 PM »
Er, how can you find out what drive chipset you have without opening your wii up?
And, what's the best overall modchip?

I got my wii back in...March/April-ish timeframe. What might I have? Which chip should I try to get?

I think I'd wait for that. It's not even out yet I thought.
Wiikey never updates their stuff either...

I mean, I don't care about gamecube games or imports, so I don't care about support for that.

I have no problem soldering and I've installed chips before, so I'm fine.

There is a 50% chance that your drive chip is a GC2-D2C

There is a 50% chance that the pins on your drive chip are not cut.
Sweet :3 and WiikeyV2 will work on D2C and pretty much all drives I read. It's specs also sound pretty awesome
I think I know what I'm getting now.
