Taking a Look at the Xecuter 3 Original Xbox Modchip - History, Installation, and Features!

The Xecuter 3, later succeeded by the Xecuter 3 CE, is one of the final modchips released by Team-Xecuter for the original Xbox. It has been hailed by many as the best modification on the console due to the well documented installation, the BIOS, and of course the plethora of X3 compatible peripherals released for it. After many people asking me to take a look at this chip, I ended up finding one and wanted to take a retrospective look at it by exploring the history of the chip, the installation, stepping through the features, and seeing if this is worth seeking out so many years later.
