Is it bad to leave my Xbox series x running a game overnight?

Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regard to your concern.

That shouldn't be a problem as long as your console is a well-ventilated place.

I have been noticing the same issue as Part C. in Belerephont's post above. Currently running experiment to see if leaving the Xbox One X. on all day will effect game-play this evening.

After running my Xbox One X. for 12 hours with no activity in use, I have found no extreme heat changes. I will be leaving it on however to see if there is anything different overnight. With the addition of about 4 hours game-play to boot. If I DO NOT see
any changes still... I will have to guess that its a software issue for the Instant-On feature within the system's OS.

Yes it will run at 30 fps on the Series X as well.

The Series X has a number of other advantages over the Series S, not just a higher resolution. The Series X has 6GB more RAM than the Series S and more capable graphics hardware. The Series X can run Xbox One games that were enhanced for the Xbox One X and
run them smoother.

Only Xbox 360 and original Xbox games that were enhanced For One X get enhanced on the Series S, but unlike that machine, they max out at 1440P. Xbox One games run as they did on the original hardware, but with their own enhancements I mentioned in my previous
reply such as smoother frame rates, unlocked resolutions and such.

For the time being, Series X and S are on par with each other frame rate wise, but only time will tell for future titles.

I'm a PC gamer (i7 and RTX 2080) as well as a console gamer. I have a Series S because I couldn't get a Series X. When the X becomes available I'll replace it.

I've not connected my Series S to my TV, it's running off my Monitor. 1080P at 120Hz is great so far.

The great thing with these consoles is their content now follows you. when I get my Series X, only old games will work and work better.

Hi,

Your drive will work the same on Series X as it does on Xbox One and you won't need to format it.

However, Series X games or Xbox One games with Series X enhancements will not run from that drive and will either need to be installed internally or to an external SSD designed for Series X/S.

Your hard drive will be too slow for Series X games. They can be stored there, but not run from there.

Hi, I have the same issue whether I close the game down & leave the Series X on, if I shutdown the Series X or leave the game running, it's always the same message. And yes, auto save is selected for all options (travel, pause etc...).

I've tried all the troubleshooting steps as detailed & I still have the same issue.

I'm genuinely at a loss here...
