I did even more testing though
My conclusion is that this box is a fake. There's no actual 2/16 s905x m16 box. There's only a 1/8 s905x.
Emuelec only boots up if i use a dtb file for 1gb of ram and not 2 when booting emulationstation (which has better performance than lakka s905 images) from an sd card.
Atvx boots up without graphical glitching if i follow darkholokaust's specific firmware repacking instructions with the atvx v2ff 1g firmware.
I could be wrong, but my finding's indicate that the no name manufacturer of this box was greedy. You can find the stock firmware
here for the 1/8 s905x and the 2/16 s905x boxes. But, the lie is pointed out when you need a dtb file that specifies 1gb of ram to make emuelec work, and that repacking the atvx 1gb of ram with darkholokausts repacking instructions actually work.
As opposed to bricking the device, firmware not copying through usb burn tool, and not being able to boot emulation station off an sd card.
EDIT: I have yet to see where burn card maker excels above usb burn tool since i've seen burn card maker fail at the same progress as usb burn tool.
