Argon v2 SPI - 9/13/17 connections - SERIAL NUMBER FROM LEH1353 ONLY ...

NEW: We now deliver "Argon v2" chip, ie with an extra SPI eeprom soldered. If you have an older Argon and want to be able to use the upcoming update that allows connection with only 9 cables and compatibility even with older WII consoles, you can contact us if you want to buy an SPI eeprom which is easily soldered to the chip. All Argon are prepared for this, the chip is soldered to the 8 solder points next to the flat cable connector. The eepromet costs only 20: - if you bought the chip from us.

Argon can be updated with "injectus" JTAG programmer connected between the chip and a PC. Order the injectus while you buy your chip and you will receive it at a special price.

1 - Works on all D2C based WII
2 - 13 connections (17 connections to enable "regional freedom"), soon there is also code for 9 connections.
3 - 100% UPDATED! (Requires JTAG programmer - sold separately)

4 - ACTEL processor
5- Direct Boot for Wii Games
6- Direct boot for all GC games (not 100% support for GC games yet)
7- Support for multiplayer play
8- Audio streaming for GC games without any problems

9- Partial regional patch (works on 80% of games). Requires 17 connections now, soon even with 9 connections

As far as regional freedom is concerned, our opinion is that "all chips work equally well / badly" and if instead of connecting the extra 4 cables required to use the chip's built-in regional patch, you can just as well patch your discs yourself with RegionFrii or similar ISO patcher. And since you always have to run "wii brick blocks" ISO patches, you can just as well take care of and run "RegionFrii".
