    Is anyone else’s Xbox series X fan loud?


    I managed to get a series x when it came out (I was one of the lucky ones) It’s been fine for years but lately the fan has become really loud blowing out hot air and the top of the console becomes really hot. I can hear it over my games or when I watch a movie also I have it next to an open window which is open for most of the day, I live in the uk so most of the time is pretty cold outside. Is anyone else having this problem??

    :)

    Xbox Series X fan runs loud when playing Series X games

    So, I recently noticed that my Xbox Series X fan runs loud when playing Series X|S / Optimised for Series X|S games specifically.

    It’s quite strange as it’s dead quiet every other time, but as soon as I start a Series X|S game, the fan becomes so loud that I need to turn up the tv volume.. it’s quite distracting.

    Has anyone else experienced this? Any solutions?

    FYI - My Series X is a pre-order/launch day model.. and it sits in an open and well ventilated tv/entertainment stand*

    In comparison, I owned an Xbox One S for three years and I never heard the fan on that.
    I’m having the exact same problem now. The only time my Xbox sounds loud is when running series x enhanced games, it’s completely fine on old gen games. Have you had this issue fixed or is it still a problem now?

    This is the result of dust getting on the fan blades which usually causes the fan to get loud.

    Hi there!

    Sorry to hear about what happened.
    Did the issue just recently occur?
    Maybe it's caused by the apps or games you've installed recently or by a system update.

    I would suggest that you perform a factory reset to refresh the console system. There's an option to keep your games and apps.
    Press the Xbox button to open the guide.
    Select Profile & system > Settings > System > Console info.
    Select Reset console.
    On the Reset your console? Please choose “Reset and keep my games & apps”
