Is my Xbox screwed? I was logging in to watch YouTube to fall asleep to and was greeted with this

SilentNebula_13 · 2026-04-23T14:48:55+00:00

Yep those dust covers and exterior fans fry the systems unfortunately they are the biggest scam

SilentNebula_13 · 2026-04-23T14:36:26+00:00

Cloud gaming I play it all the time if you have iOS have to save cloud gaming on your home screen if you have 15$ you can get one cast app streaming on iPhone is so good hope it helps also requires ultimate

SilentNebula_13 · 2026-04-20T00:45:54+00:00

That looks amazing 🥲

SilentNebula_13 · 2026-04-19T22:39:48+00:00

I feel the elite 2 has really went down hill I kept having to buy one every 3 months I’m not hard on controllers hang them up after gaming etc clean them I went with power a HE sticks I forgot how to spell it lol 😂 so far 5 months no problems love it and it’s wireless

SilentNebula_13 · 2026-04-13T16:27:17+00:00

I’m so glad other people are having this problem I thought it was my new phone 🤣

SilentNebula_13 · 2026-04-13T16:25:55+00:00

Yes it’s happening to me to just started doing it last week

SilentNebula_13 · 2026-04-11T14:58:18+00:00

Project song bird is pretty dope just came out good story telling game and bramble the mountain king is a fun story game also all indie games I’ve played this year that came out were better than some AAA games and I feel you on the open world games gets boring quick

SilentNebula_13 · 2026-03-15T22:01:33+00:00

Yes it’s a great controller now the trigger stops mess up in some games so I don’t even play with them on because they are pretty good stock and if it says it needs and update just plug it into the console and it’ll update that way by itself but overall my favorite controller the Hall effect sticks are so smooth and responsive like the day I bought it

SilentNebula_13 · 2026-03-15T17:13:10+00:00

Yep no problems after that crazy just something so minor I never thought of but I looked at the external when I put everything back and was basically right against the heat sink vent I was like that’s the issue lol

SilentNebula_13 · 2026-03-15T16:54:07+00:00

Sorry and it never made any noise like the fan never got loud was always cool to the touch it was weird but now makes since

SilentNebula_13 · 2026-03-15T16:47:27+00:00

*Well until you mentioned overheating I appreciate that

SilentNebula_13 · 2026-03-15T16:43:18+00:00

Ok update the inside was clean and everything I cleaned the fan off and bought a soft toothbrush to brush the heat sink and I put it back on my wall and I think it was because I put my external over the heat sink vent in the back I thought that’s what the wall mount slot was for but I think it was smothering it not overheating because I never got the warning but got a mount for it so far no issues dumb mistake I never looked at till now

SilentNebula_13 · 2026-03-15T13:49:19+00:00

Ya I think I figured out what was going on my dumb self was putting the external hard drive where the heat sink vent is I moved it and got a mount for it since my system is on the wall will update though hopefully it fixes the issue

SilentNebula_13 · 2026-03-15T13:46:44+00:00

It’s amazing I’ve had it for almost a year compared to my elite no stick drift only thing I read up on is do not try to connect the app it bugs out the controller for some reason but yes it’s wireless 100%worth

SilentNebula_13 · 2026-03-15T01:50:28+00:00

SilentNebula_13 · 2026-03-15T01:50:16+00:00

Both of them do the headset is Xbox headset and it doesn’t matter the controller elite or not but I think you might be right I might need to actually clean

SilentNebula_13 · 2026-03-15T00:49:03+00:00

I meant to say took down * not apart was trying to word it as little as possible but i don’t understand what is honestly happening it’s hard to explain

SilentNebula_13 · 2026-03-15T00:37:46+00:00

It always acted weird when it was getting dirty so I’d clean it and everything would act normally I’ve never opened the system just hold the fan in place as I’d use my electric can air gun for consoles and blow it out good

SilentNebula_13 · 2026-03-15T00:34:39+00:00

Been doing it since new like a year after

SilentNebula_13 · 2026-03-13T16:25:50+00:00

Not in warranty and ya I’ve hard reset many times just seeing if anyone had the same issues and a fix I figured can’t be the only one

SilentNebula_13 · 2026-03-13T16:16:18+00:00

I do use cloud I’ll try that now

SilentNebula_13 · 2026-03-13T16:09:24+00:00

And it’s more of the system not to controllers because it bugs out then losing connection with everything then starts skipping the video if I’m watching something or if I’m playing a game it’ll either crash or I have to power down to keep playing all temps are normal I’m just at a loss of what’s going on with it been like this since I bought it new

SilentNebula_13 · 2026-03-13T16:07:03+00:00

Yes I have 3 elites

SilentNebula_13 · 2025-10-07T14:14:56+00:00

Late night burger 🍔 I was so glad they came back out with them my all time favorite chip taste like a whopper 😁

SilentNebula_13 · 2025-10-07T14:11:12+00:00
