Xbox Series X/S power options to shutdown.

Hi Sina,

In addition to Nathan’s answers above, you may want to enable the shutdown option (energy saving) power mode if you’re concerned about the energy consumption and the amount of time your console takes to power off. Refer to:

About power options on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S | Xbox Support

It’s honestly nothing to worry about as long as your console is positioned correctly and well ventilated, though. The power cable should ideally be connected directly to the wall outlet with no extension cables in the setup if possible

Also, as you have a Series X, I’d recommend reading through the official Xbox Series X|S FAQ

Hope this helps.

Your only options are to purchase an Xbox Series X or S or if you can, get a powerful PC good enough for the game.

For BOTH methods, it is more affective by unplugging the power cord for 1 minute after sutting the console down.
