Q.

Dear Sir  I have a Sony playstation 2 (SCPH-79004) 

with board GH-062-02 and I want to
modify it to play free games, boot on import, backups, ntsc, pal games. 


I read that there are a lot of (mod)chips available (e.g. Infinity 1.88) but I
don't know the differences between them.


Please can you explain me what kind of chips are available for my board and
what are the differences between them. Can you also give me the price of
this chip and the pictures how to install the chip on the board. 


Is the modification directly active when the chip is soldered on the board or must
the chip be programmed / updated by myself 


(I expect that the FPGA is pogrammed)?

1. Yes . The modification is directly active when the chip is soldered on the board.

2. Although the FPGA is pogrammed on Most PS2 Chips and work 100% - Most can also be reprogrammed with a Different or More Suitable operating Bios with Different Features.

3. Some Modchips use a 5Volt Power Rail and Some Modchips a 3.3V Power Rail- Some use different Chips in Manufacturing and Some teams Use their own operating Bios or Lend other Team Bios for their Hardware Chips

example: Modbo mainly use

Matrix Infinity 1.83 Bios .
Matrix Infinity 1.88 Bios .
Matrix Infinity 1.91 Bios .
Matrix Infinity 1.93 Bios .
Matrix Infinity 1.99 Bios .

Toxic Bios is Flashed on Some Batches of Modbo 4.0 NEW Version.
 
 

These Variables will end up having different effects on different Model Playstation 2 in terms of Reliability . Stability . Boot Times . Extra Wear and Tear .

We are always Glad to recommend Certain Chips for Certain Model Playstation 2 Consoles after using and Testing many PS2 Chips and Ps2 Console Types.




For Your Model SCPH 79004 : We Recommend and Use:

Modbo 4.0
Modbo 750
Modbo 745


Mars Pro HD
M-Chip M7


Matrix Infinity

But our greatest Recommendation is Matrix Infinity and Second Best is Mars Pro HD and then the Modbo Chips.

We Hope this answers your Questions Clearly

Thank you . Modchip-Wizard

Q.1 Hello, i am a playstation 2 user and i was wondering exactly how does a playstation 2 mod chip work and what is it? I would be very interested in getting a Modbo 4.0 installed and would recommend it to many friends as they are looking for a mod-chipper and hopefully i have found one, Thank you .?

A.1 Thanks for contact- and questions


We are not a shop but professional installers of mod chips  for all video game consoles-

The PS2 Modbo 4.0 modchips allow more functionality without affecting the original performance of the consoles.


Traditionally the modchips were installed just to play games from all countries - then broadened to play copied versions of games but now many useful applications can be installed as well such as media players - emulators etc.


The work we provide is always warranted - and Playstation 2 Modbo 4.0 has Factory warranty


If there is anything else needed to know plse email anytime.


We are at Albany Creek Brisbane.

Q.2 Wow, that's awesome, so your saying if i go overseas and buy games, they will play with a mod-chip? wow!! :)

cool, so what's this my friend is saying, can you actually like rent games from a video store and burn them onto disks and be able to play them on your actual ps2???  i will come in sometime in the next couple of weeks and get one installed:)my friends will be pleased as well:) thank you very much Harry :)
 
ps: what do you mean by emulators and media players, sorry i dont know:(

A.2 The answer is yes- you can get games from overseas as there is many more games released in Japan USA and Asia and sometimes Europe - after the Modbo 4.0 mod chip is installed you can play games from all countries or regions.

To copy games from the Video Store can be done yes but this may breach copyright law in some countries- in Australia you can legally copy your own bought games that you own as a back up copy of the game disc but copying a game that you did not purchase may breach copyright.

Some clients also download games from torrent sites on the internet and when finished downloading they burn them onto DVD disc and play them if a modchip is installed in their console. This also may breach copyright if you did not own the original Game.


Please read more about "Emulators" and "Media Players" here.
