According to Microsoft, there are “some speculations that the new Opus motherboard is supposed to prevent the Xbox 360 console from having the three red flashing lights issue.”

“Unfortunately, I don’t have access to information regarding the internal construction of the console,” a Microsoft rep told GameRush Entertainment. “Regularly updating console components is commonplace within the industry and is a standard aspect of the business for a variety of reasons including cost reduction, improved manufacturability and improved performance.”
