' Its time to review the new DreamX Bravo from FriendTech Online.. What a machine! '

* Compatible with all Xbox games and Xbox Live!
** Supports the FriendTech MCE and XBMC software
*** Additional options available for European users
Firstly i like to mention the overall presentation of the DREAMX.. Wow..!! All DreamX Xbox's are shipped in a custom box and are already skinned up and might i say looking nice. They also throw in a S-Controllre with the same skin plastered on it.. (i really liked the effort they had gone to and look very professional).



I'll upload more screenshots when i get my digital camera back from work. To show off the 2 xbox skins it is shipped with and the mad cardboard box..

FriendTech's DreamX Bravo's Features:
- New Intel 733MHz Pentium III CPU (256KB cache)
- Fastest Gaming System for Xbox Live! Online Games
- Pre-Modded, with full-featured Media Key installed
- 128MB Memory for system and video
- 8GB Hard Disk Drive, expandable to 300GB
- DreamX A/V Cable included, for S-Video and A/V video support
- Dolby 5.1 Surround Sound and Optical Fiber Audio Port
- DreamX External Skin

Ive checked out the mainboard too and Once again i must say 'wow'...! The memory upgrade that has been done on the mainboard is nearly un-noticable.. The new Celeron 733Mhz Processor is fitted nice too.

DreamX Bravo Comes fitted with a Modchip and Cromwell Bios:
The DreamX is also shipped with a custom modchip very similar to the aladdin live which uses the 49LF020 chip to hold the bios.. It does the job fine.. You hold the Power button for 2 Seconds to Boot to LINUX BIOS and there linux LEGAL MEDIA CENTER!

If you dont hold the power button it will boot like a normal xbox but with a difference.. That RAM makes so much difference to the games overall FPS (frames per second) and i can guanrantee the new upgrade CPU has alot to do with it too..

The modchip also allows the xbox power light to display HDD activity on your xbox front panel which is a great feature.. No wonder so many guys are going for the DreamX Bravo these days with all these features..

In original form the DreamX Bravo wont boot backup games or other software until you flash the modchip (49lf020) with a hacked bios.. Then you will be able to carry on as normal!

I played Halo2 last night for only 30 minutes but i was impressed.. Your reaction times have to be a little quicker since the fps (frames per seconds) have definately increased.

I Would suggest any Friendtech DreamX Xbox to all members on xbox-hq and can guarantee you wont be sorry.. I will check out MAMEX and the latest roms to see what sort of improvements there are in that side of things too.. Im sure it will be immese.

 


Anyway, this is just the beginning of the review.. It won't make much sense but im just getting it started in the spare time i have..
