As the title states, I am looking for a White Nintendo Wii with an RVL-CPU-60 board.  I would also consider buying the board alone if anyone has a spare with that revision.  Please let me know if you have one or know where I can find one.  Thanks!

I assume you are buying it because it has a slightly better picture and can be modded for HDMI?

I am buying it for compatibility with the HDMI mod, and the 60 revision has the lowest power consumption out of all the revisions that can be modded.

I don't think so.  The revision number is printed on the board.  http://forums.modretro.com/index.php?threads/wii-board-revis...

According to that, looks like you can pop out the battery and check.    I'll see if I have any -60.

Interesting, I have a launch model, and had no idea that such dramatic power savings could be had from the revisions. Dunno if I would do it myself though, setting up a new system for homebrew sounds to me like more trouble than it's worth given my Wii works just fine at present.
