i believe Xecuter's SX Core modchip , would be able to hack your switch . All tho i've heard they are quite rare now a days

This would be the only way.
Though as he said they are really really rare and if you find one it will be pretty expensive.

Guess other than that you can just hope that someone will develop and sell a new modchip, though after the lawsuit against Xecuter I think that is unlikely.

TaoBao has clones already just wait um 3 months and they will start to show up on aliexpess

The clones are already on Aliexpress. Prices are like 3x to 4x of what the original was, might as well buy a patched system instead.

Got a couple links direct to these listings?

 

[BigBoy]

It's on Aliexpress, just search for sx core. The sellers are selling them for $200. Probably not a good idea to post direct links for nintey to find.

Your argument with not speding 100 bucks considering your intentions (maybe just for one title, but most of us also had the same intentions at a time), I think this is quite a steal.
Considering you don't wanna risk breaking your unit, well yeah that's why all people recommend to let it be done by professionals if you don't do this stuff either as hobby or like study electronics or alike (like the friend that did it, succesfully, for me).

Option 1. SX Core = unobtainable
Option 2. SX Core clone = $130 on Aliexpress

Good luck.

Taking Switches apart is easy but I wouldn't try this if you can't solder. Installs used to cost ~£50-£60 (depending on the installer, I knew three in the UK) but you had to provide the chip yourself. Weather the cost is worth it is up to you but imo it's worth the money. As others have said it might be cheaper to just buy an unpatched console though. Try to get an original SX Core if you do decide to get one, we still haven't seen anyone using one of the clones afaik so we don't know what the quality is like.

their selling core/lite sx clones that only run atmos but their price is ouch and who knows if/when nintendo/tencent acts on this i mean rcm loader is banned in the US

Can run both. Its all off payload.bin. Just how they advertised it since no embedded license.

Some guy already posted a youtube video about the new clone. It's apparently harder to install the clone due to some gap on one of the soldering points.

No. Just get an unpatched Switch instead.
