Xbox Series X overheating during gameplay sessions

Hi, my name is , I'm an Independent Consultant and a member of the Xbox community like you. I understand your problem, don't worry I'm here to help you.

Usually when there is overheating the console emits a message informing before turning off.

Try connecting the Xbox to another outlet with a ventilated location to check if the same problem occurs.

Make a factory reset keeping your games and apps, following this tutorial;

I appreciate your patience, if you have more questions feel free to ask.

high-end computer hardware gets hot when it runs, this is its nature.

If it doesn't say it's overheating, it's not overheating. What you're saying is a catastrophic crash bug and the system shuts down to protect itself

You need to report these problems to the game developer is only they can patch their game to prevent these things

don't listen to the ad advisor they have no idea what they're talking about.

Hi Ameeth, my name is Joel, I'm here to help you with any problems or questions you may have.

Ameeth, if your console has been in use for some time, more than 2 years for example, it is very likely that there is internal dust accumulation, so the next step is to clean all the ventilation grilles, as well as the fan blades of the console. You can use compressed air for this so that it removes all the internal dust without having to open the console.

If, on the other hand, your console is still under warranty, the recommendation is to send it to Technical Service, so that it can be checked.

Hi Vasiliki , my name is Joel, I'm here to help you with any problems or questions you may have.

Vasiliki, it is not something normal and less in this console model since its cooling system is very efficient, has it verified that there is no excess dust in all the ventilation grilles and even in the fan grille? if there are no traces of being clogged by dust, the recommendation is definitely to send your console to Technical Service for a check.

The fact that the console shuts down directly due to overheating is already a sign that something is definitely not working well.

high-end electronics get hot during gameplay, because you're working them hard, this is going to continue to happen and continues with more current systems as well. Heat is not a problem, unless the system tells you it's overheating.

The normal temperature range for a graphics card is in the 80s celsius/180F. they get hot
