Why does my Xbox one overheat when I load up on games but apps don’t thermal throttle

we cannot assist you with self repair, apps have extremely low processing overhead compared to a game.

Ok thanks but lets say for example it did start to overheat will the pc shut off before it started to get too much and potentially course a fire. Its just because i heard this from someone else that it will shut of if it gets too hot.

It won't overheat. PCs don't get hotter and hotter and then spontaneously combust. CPU's would thermal throttle when they get near their temperate limits. For modern Intel processors this is just over 100c and for AMD about 95c. When the throttle occurs, the CPU is downclocked and draws less power. Less power equals less heat.

Since your download speed is so low, your PC won't be at any risk of thermal throttling let alone over-heating. Downloading and unpacking files wouldn't cause overheating even on a fast connection.

No nothing .I have had my old xbox one overheat and it tells you thats why it has shut down .I would expext this to happen more in game but most of the time its when loading matches or just in the menus .

Hi,

I'm not entirely sure why the save sync is using the GPU like that. However, despite the heat reported, it's still nothing really to worry about.

The RX 6XXX cards have several heat sensors, the 'Hot Spot' is the most hottest part of the GPU Die (the hottest part of the chip) at the time the temperature is reported, not the whole GPU.

While 85c is rather hot, it's not beyond the design specifications of the card. The RX 6XXX series can hit a toasty 110c before it thermal throttles. It won't overheat.

I originally just had flight simulator installed which wouldn’t load up (as if frozen) I’ve installed War thunder which does the same thing. But when I installed it on the Xbox one it worked. So I started downloading online games only on the series X none of them load up e.g Enlisted, Fortnite and war thunder. But Day Z does work.

Yea so they don’t load up at all.

It’s as if something has stopped my series X from accessing online games..

Thanks for getting back to me.
