Xbox Series X Strange Sound

Hello EdvinJursen,

Welcome to Xbox Community Forum. Thank you for sharing your concern with us today and we hope that all is well.

Based on your description, you are hearing strange sounds on your Xbox Console while gaming. Let us check on this together and sort this out in timely manner.

There may not be much to worry about, as the console behaves differently as expected. What you're describing sounds a little strange, so I recommend reporting the problem from the console by following the steps in the linked article under the first section, "Report a problem on Xbox."

For other option, please check this support article that describes how to set up the Xbox Series X|S. This will help and ensure the place where the console is located it well be ventilated and no gadgets for interference. Please see under Before you begin and Preparing space for the console from this link: Set up your Xbox Series X|S console | Xbox Support

We also recommend that you check your device's warranty in case this is still eligible for warranty repair service, if the problem is hardware.



Sincerely,

i have the same problem on my Xbox One X (2020) with a strange message "sorry, not compatible devices, try on %2 xbox serie X|S"

(what is %2 ???)

That's strange, I Have Xbox 360, Xbox one Fat, Xbox one X and Xbox series X, just my One X had issues, but I replaced trough the out of warranty service and all of them are currently working

So, I recently noticed that my Xbox Series X fan runs loud when playing Series X|S / Optimised for Series X|S games specifically.

It’s quite strange as it’s dead quiet every other time, but as soon as I start a Series X|S game, the fan becomes so loud that I need to turn up the tv volume.. it’s quite distracting.

Has anyone else experienced this? Any solutions?

FYI - My Series X is a pre-order/launch day model.. and it sits in an open and well ventilated tv/entertainment stand*

In comparison, I owned an Xbox One S for three years and I never heard the fan on that.

I’m having the exact same problem now. The only time my Xbox sounds loud is when running series x enhanced games, it’s completely fine on old gen games. Have you had this issue fixed or is it still a problem now?

Strange they would just send a new one almost like the series x is defective.
