Sorry guys, I have two of those damned cbales. Used 'em, and now I'm back to stock. If anything, I noticed a 30% DECREASE in transfer speed. Honestly, it won't make a difference, if it does, it might only be 1 second out a 75. Not a good increase for 12 bucks a cable. _________________ "That which does not kill you, only makes you stronger."

I agree, the cable will not make any difference in performance. I have had customers insist on a cable upgrade only to be thoroughly disappointed. _________________ Xbox 1.4
