I'm currently thinking of picking up a cube again mainly to play imports. I've been offered a PAL Cube fitted with a Viper chip on another forum. The guy selling doesn't really use it for anything other than PAL games so doesn't know that much about it other than it plays imports.
I've read a bit about the Qoob chip (& know it plays imports & can force prog scan in some PAL games) but haven't heard anything about the Viper at all. Is it as good as the Qoob & are there any major differences between them?
I'd guess the guy probably doesn't know what bios is installed - if it's just the default 'factory' bios will it still run imports ok or would I need to mess about flashing it?
Also if anybody can give me a rough idea of what's a fair price I'd really appreciate it.
Sorry for all the q's & thanks in advance!
