Photos have shown up on the A9VG forums of what some are speculating is a new Xbox 360 motherboard. Code-named Valhalla, the motherboard features a processor which combines the CPU and GPU of the 360 onto one chip. The motherboard is much smaller than the current generation, leading to rumors that an Xbox 360 Slim is on the horizon. The fact that Microsoft is currently seeking a motherboard design engineer adds fuel to the fire. Additionally, the new board lacks the hard drive port used by the 360, which would mean a new hard drive interface.
