LeStream : "Xbox Series X is hot"

at 05:49:45


Full quote : "I don't know if we can talk about this but, we have the Series X here and the Series X is hot, it is hot. It makes 0 noise but on the other hand it gives off heat, it's violent. I mean it's violent... yeah, yeah it's violent. You can warm up thanks to the Series X, clearly. From a sound point of view it's good but from a heat point of view, it's something."

Other one adds : "It will send out air, a small air diffuser."

Interesting note : "yeah, we're not allowed to show new generation games, disappointing."

Also Beastcast said that the external ssd gets really hot


It could be rumours or it could be that the fan profile is not optimal for heat, but still it is early days

I think that was posted or discussed 3 days ago. But it couldn't mean anything tbh

It is the hottest console for sure

 

[DavidGzz]

Like, do they have an exact temperature that is well above the norm? Seems most of my consoles/pcs feel pretty hot.

 

[Orky]

How many threads on this do we need?
And this is normal. All consoles and computers nowadays run hot. Nothing special.
This is just the typical FUD. We had the same with PS5:

PlayStation 5's rumored heat issues should be solved in final console

Sources say the PlayStation 5 runs hot, but Sony should compensate with a powerful cooling solution.

"It will send out air"

Oh I didn't know it was supposed to keep the heat in the console. Just more "concern" as usual.

Im sure they can crank up the fans if required. It'll just be a bit noisy.

Obviously it gets hot. GPU and CPU are producing heat that gets blown out by the fan. Whats the intresting thing here?

 

[phil_t98]

Wasn't it just a mem card that was hot and they do get hot inside PC's to

 

[Stiflers Mom]

Watching out for that first video where someone fries an egg on it.

 

[TLZ]

I just hope we don't have another rrod situation again.

The first account of it getting hot is new, the second is a repost.
