XB1 fan noise

I have both. My One only makes noise when Im installing games from disc. Other than that it seems pretty *** quiet. The PS4 makes a bit more noise. Thats probably because of its smaller form factor with less ventilation. It runs a lot hotter as well.

What do you mean by "ventilation noise"? Can you describe it with a little more detail?

The only thing you should hear is the system fan whirring, the hard drive making spinny/clicky noises, and the disc drive spinning the disc.

my xbox emits an annoying noise, which is heard, but it's the 3rd time I send it to microsoft and it's the same

Do you keep your Xbox One S in a well ventilated area? The loud whirring noise is the fan, which may have dust or not be getting enough air.

Hi Rokko,

Thanks for reaching out to us in the forums with this question. When it comes to the fan noise from the Xbox One S vs. the Xbox One X, there should be minimal noise when it is running. To ensure that it is not being overworked you'll want to be surethat
the
ventilation for the Xbox One console is good by keeping it free from obstruction. If its hot around the vents, don't worry, as that is normal for cooling.

I hope that this helps out!

My Scorpio Xbox One X (which arrived today) has been running pretty quietly, perhaps even quieter than my Xbox One S.

Is it running hot? Be sure to give it some "breathing room" so it can ventilate enough air to keep cool.

Do you have a disc inside? Is that making the grinding noise? If so, do other discs cause the same noise?
