Finally, a video with a good enough camera so I see how to take out the small ribbon cable, every other video just says push on it but doesn't mention the metal piece.
Cheers buddy, decent strip down. Just re-pasted my processor and this video worked a treat. My only gripe would be to mention that when splitting the heatsink from the PCB, be careful and use a plastic prying tool becauae mine was stuck. Microsoft's quality control on pasting the processor is awful.
Mine is completely clogged with dust after 8 months of nearly every day use but I just don’t want to take it apart yet it definitely doesn’t run as cold as it used to but it’s still quiet and doesn’t shut down so I think I’ll leave it until the warranty runs out 😁
Hope i can see the upgrade to 2TB M.2 SSD at the same time. The out-of-box 1TB is entry level DRAMless one. I am afriad it's a QLC SSD. Any idea to upgrade to high quality TLC compatible SSD？
I thought it would be harder to remove everything from the chasis. There’s only a couple of screws seems fairly simple. I can easily just blow compressed air and call it a day but I want to see the insides
Cleaning my Xbox One S proved to be far more challenging than cleaning the Xbox Series X. Surprisingly, the Xbox Series X was much more convenient than I anticipated, taking no time at all. However, when it came to the Xbox One S, I found myself struggling to open an incredibly stubborn metal plate. 😂
I miss cleaning my pc. I love this beast as a replacement of my 10 year old mod range gaming pc. But I'm worried about future cleaning. The steel cover with clamping worries me the most. I used to clean and replace thermal paste of my pc every one year. I don't know how I'll clean this. There's no trust in local shops in India.
Getting to the point where I'm considering changing the thermal paste. Is it necessary to spread? Some videos I see the tech spread it around and other videos they just sandwich it.
I can’t take off the bottom, it says to use tweezers but it just breaks the tweezers, it literally won’t move no matter what tool I use. How are you able to open it so easily?
How can I clean without disassemble it ? Cause I’m not a professional like u and I don’t wanna pay any services to do because I’m afraid that they could steal pieces . So do u have any tips , I just want the the up and the back of the console .ps my is Xbox is 2 years old .
Hey bro you saved me $300 that microsoft support wanted to fix my over heating and shutting off XSX, the thermal paste was 100% dry and almost non on the chip and it was all leaked out, my xbox is back to its former glory repasted and its all thanks to you and your precise guide, i fixed it with zero damage to the console, 10/10 guide
Just wanted to say thanks for this detailed guide , today after a heavy session on assetto Corsa I noticed the fans amped up alot , it's currently 32c here in the UK and felt after two years and a bit it was time to open up my series X , even though it was clean as a whistle inside as I use my system lying down and keep it clean from dust that's seemed to help loads . But when taking it apart I noticed the themal application was 1 rubbish and two hard as a brick . Followed your guide and replaced it with thermal grizzly Kryonaught and it's quite than day one of owning it . Alot easier than I expected to be fair . Very good guide for anyone trying the same process , I salute you good sir and many thanks for you time and efforts .
I used this video to completely clean/repaste my Series X after it was overheating. I love how he shows you which screws to put back on re-assembly. Made it a lot easier.
The removal of the classic x clamp makes me believe Xbox is getting more akin to the idea of people fixing and cleaning their own consoles. I have both this and PS5 and it takes me like 20 minutes to clean everything on the Xbox except the thermal paste, but that wouldn't have taken much longer. PS5 you basically have to disassemble the entire console to clean the heatsink. Being able to clean it from the same side as the fan/SSD wouldve really been special. Hopefully the Pro fixes it.
xbox was sounding like an airplane, had it since it was released. i didnt go all the way to thermal paste this time but wanted to a detailed enough cleaning of dust. it was very bad, literally created a small hill of dirt on my table. all back together, cleaned and playing videogames in silence, fan exhaling heat perfectly. thank you so much for this and now i have tools to use for other electronics that ive needed
60 seconds in and I can already tell this is a good guide. I'll save this for later and add all those things to my "Save for later" list and come back to it once I've gotten everything over the next month or two
Get off work at 5. Turn on Xbox when I’m ready to game. Fan stops, system gives overheat warning. Find this video, disassemble (fan portion only), clean out console and fan, back online before 6. Thanks bro!
I've killed two series X's, not having a clue how or why. Then I found your video. I've learned, living in a very dusty town and having dogs I needed to clean it once a month at the least. But what I discovered is, if you lay it on its side, like the old Xboxes, the dust and hair doesn't collect in the heat sync. I turned it over after my last cleaning, just to see if it made any difference. So after about 4 months I decided to open it up and check on it. It had dust everywhere but that's because of where I live. But the heat sync was completely clear of dirt and hair. So I highly recommend, any one who watches this or reads this to turn your series X on its side.
Have you noticed, that technology and Microsoft, Sony themselves.... Have all said, though an unlucky few will have faulty consoles, most are robust, highly tested for a long period of time, used in high heat extreme conditions, and not sold till they are sure they are fit for long term use. I'm 43, i played on ZX Spectrum, Amiga 500, Mega Drives, NES, 3DO, Amiga32, Mega CD, PS1, PS2, PS3, PS4, Xbox, XB1, XB1X right up too now owning the Series X and S. Back then, as kids, we had the consoles on carpets, put it in our bags too go to our pals houses, dogs and cats near the console, eating drinking near the console...... Pausing games to go and play with pals outside, blowing in cartridges and consoles thinking you were clearing dust..... And NOT ONCE did i have to get someone to open up one of my old consoles for cleaning, and some still work too this day. Yet somehow, now.... We are supposed to think that these new consoles are so precious, so delicate, so fragile, that we have to possibly attempt to open up a £450 console, replacing and cleaning parts? I swear, i have heard more stories, of people trying too remove the fan and clean their new consoles and THEN actually breaking them.... When there was no need too at all. 1. If you keep your area hoovered and dusted every day where you keep your consoles, the internal dust will be small. 2. I got for £8, on Amazon, Series X Microfibre dust filters.... They stick perfectly on the top and all vents, allowing the console to breath fine, and stop all dust. 3. If you have a dust buster, or small attachment for the hoover, simply press it against the rear vents, and turn on.... This was on the actual Microsoft site as the easiest way. IF you know exactly what you are doing, then yeah, go ahead and open the console up..... But unless you live in a dirt box and never dust, your console should be fine.
Great video! But did anybody else have trouble removing the middle screw for the fan? I have all the necessary tools and used the T8H, but it just stripped it. It won't budge 😢 Update: Used some pliers to unscrew it. Hope it's easier for the rest of y'all.
I own the Series X since day one so it logically starts to heat up a little more. I will clean it and replace the thermal paste with this simple, clear and effective tutorial. thanks dude 👍
I literally just did this, have had my Xbox since launch, my fan and Xbox itself are so much COOLER. Was kinda skeptical bout doin this cuz I’m not a big tech guy, but holy hell was it easy and worked very well lol
@DagAmaRamaGaming Damn....I still haven't done it. This is why my wife left me lol. Don't you guys give up on me too!? Was thinking of using the graphite pads? Heard good things. I'll let you know in 10 months when I still havnt done it. 🫠=My Xbox........and marriage.
The much easier way, is to get two cotton ear buds, cut one ends of both. Then tape them together strongly but thinly, then carefully poke through the holes with the long earbud at the rear bottom of the console, to clean out the dust from the heatsink. Little shake and then hoover does the trick! My Series X went from a loud hoover to a quite console again, without having to open it up or void a warranty.
Do you have to replace the thermal paste or is this guy just doing it for his? Mine is not that dirty at all but when come time to clean it. All I wanna do is vacuum the fan out.
You don't have to change the thermal paste if you only need to clean the dust. This video instruction shows the replacement process for information on how to do it, but it is not necessary.
I tried following along with this video cleaning my system but I ended up breaking a few cords and lost like 3 screws I can't even get it all back today it sucks because I just bought my console about 7 Months ago really wasn't even that dirty in the first place microwave told me I voided my warrant so I'm bummed out
Why my console starts to overheat after every 2-3 months? I mean I changed thermal paste (hydronaut) and it's started to overheat again after 3 months :/
Bro I just got finish taking my xbox apart and adding the thermal paste and this video was a great help and I lo Ed the way you took it step by step. And I was thinking oh my God I hope show how to put it all back too cause I was lost with all the screws. But fro. The Beginning to the end this was a very Informative video dope job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉
I bought my unit 2 and a half years ago. It was starting to ramp up its fans where it never did before. Followed your guide and replaced the paste for some artic cooler mx4. It runs quiet as factory new. Thank you
My fans middle T8 was like glued or thermal welded/expanded into it's socket. It stripped after trying to carefully apply enough pressure to break it free. This is the first time I've even taken it apart, it should not have been in there with that much force. Now I have a fan that I can't get out. Why use such a shitty small size of torx for these.
Damn i really don't want to go that deep into my console but your thermal paste looks pretty crunchy. And i bought mine not long after they came out. :/ Thank you so much for the screw lengths though! That's one bit that worried me, is mixing them up.
You can try and clean it first with compressed air. If it doesn't help, then yeah I think it's the termal paste. Microsoft is not using the highest quality paste, so it dries out quickly.
There was so much fucking dust in mine holy I don’t have the right tools so I only took the back plate off and cleaned out what I could with what I had, my heat sync was absolutely caked so I got everything I could off that and some little bunnies piled in the crevices it already sounds so much better it was turning into a ps4 jet😂 can’t wait to fully clean it
Hi, I recently had my xbox serviced by microsoft because it would shut down during Gears 5 at random intervals of gameplay. Now that it has been returned the issue has been fixed but I can't insert a disc into the drive, there's no suction at all...I'd like to avoid sending it in again. Do you think a ribbon cable or something could be unplugged?
Thanks for the video I was watching a video 2 days ago because my Xbox was getting really hot fast so I took the back off and simply cleaned my heat sink, next weekend I’m going to try to take the fan off and see if I can find dust there taking it one step at a time😂😂

The construction of this console is just incredible. The Microsoft engineers that worked on it should be extremely proud of the final product.
Except for the fact that they put the intake on the base of the system. That’s genuinely stupid design.
Sure your better than engineers huh?? 😂😅😂
@@Never-Mongo there's holes at the back of the console, heat rises, cold air gets pulled from bottom and back, hot air then expelled at the top.
@@dagnisnierlins188 yes but airflow needs to be available to pull to cool air through the system, the console literally sits on top of them
@@Never-Mongo😅👋😊😄
Finally, a video with a good enough camera so I see how to take out the small ribbon cable, every other video just says push on it but doesn't mention the metal piece.
Thank you finally found a teardown video that actually shows how to remove the little ribbon cable
this console is put together like an absolute stud, this thing is not chinsy in the slightest, happy i bought one great machine
You're the goat bro, can confirm this still works in 2024
This is the most detailed information you can get to clean a Xbox Series X.

My only gripe would be to mention that when splitting the heatsink from the PCB, be careful and use a plastic prying tool becauae mine was stuck.

I found my Xbox after a hurricane came through I opened it and the details are amazing especially the master chief helmet
The series x is such a well designed console
Thank you so much for this video, I have just done a whole cleanup and it worked perfectly
You make this look so easy. Thank you I couldn’t have fixed this without this video.
Thanks for this. My fellas xbox was sounding like a jet engine. Turns out there was a thick layer of dust on the heatsink. Sounds loads better now.
Thanks a lot for this guide! It was so useful to clean my Xbox Series X and now it is supersilent as it was the first day :)
How did you manage to remove the middle screw from the fan? I found it very difficult
Mine is completely clogged with dust after 8 months of nearly every day use but I just don’t want to take it apart yet it definitely doesn’t run as cold as it used to but it’s still quiet and doesn’t shut down so I think I’ll leave it until the warranty runs out 😁
Just do an outside cleaning with a small vac hose , don’t need much vacuum strength
i cover it with a plastic bag when i go to sleep or not using it. After a year, it still looks super clean with no dust or hair inside and out.

Hope i can see the upgrade to 2TB M.2 SSD at the same time. The out-of-box 1TB is entry level DRAMless one. I am afriad it's a QLC SSD. Any idea to upgrade to high quality TLC compatible SSD？
great video . hardest part was prying metal cover off . it was as ez as the video looks and xbox sx seems to be running a lot better. thanks for video
Is the metal rigid? I’m just worried that I’ll snap the metal with continuous teardowns overtime
Sir you have saved me 250 quid, this is a fantastic guide.
I thought it would be harder to remove everything from the chasis. There’s only a couple of screws seems fairly simple. I can easily just blow compressed air and call it a day but I want to see the insides
Nice video, but you should replace the thermal pads with new one's. Never use thermal pads twice.
And why is that? As long as they look and feel good, there’s no reason for you to change it.
@@SicknatureL2 Once the thermal pads are pinched, they no longer conform to the surface.
That magnetic pad amazing 👍🏿
You can remove the fan plug by pulling from its cables. It's safe.

Idk why he didn't
It’s very funny how u explain to how to remove the connector of the fan to remove
what if the big screw for the fan is stripped? it’s literally a circle i can’t get it out
Any other guidance on how much thermal paste to apply?
Wow!! Thanks u so much, your vídeo really help me to fix My Xbox!!! Nice video.
Thanks! It helped me!
Thank you bro. That really helped me! 😃
But it has only been out for 2 years how are people replacing the thermal paste so soon ?
Cause ots a bad thermal past buy ms now the console run loud
Can't get the middle circular piece off for the fan at the beginning, it's like they welded it in at xbox.. Completely stuck

just keep fan and vents clean. no need for repaste unless your severely overheating causing shutdown when playing games etc.
What Kind Of Screwdriver?? I Need To Open My Series X It’s Kinda Dirty Inside..
The left sticker ain't coming off on mine lol feels like I'm going to break it
Getting to the point where I'm considering changing the thermal paste. Is it necessary to spread? Some videos I see the tech spread it around and other videos they just sandwich it.
No, apply little extra paste, the pressure of the screws will be enough to spread it
Great Vid!!! Thanks
I can’t take off the bottom, it says to use tweezers but it just breaks the tweezers, it literally won’t move no matter what tool I use. How are you able to open it so easily?
I’m havin the same problem did you ever figure out a way to open it?
Do you have another link for opening tools? The one you have listed currently is unavailable
Can you not use compressed air canisters?
I can't get that white plug out for the fan. My tweezers keep slipping off then clamping the wires so I'm stopping.
How can I clean without disassemble it ? Cause I’m not a professional like u and I don’t wanna pay any services to do because I’m afraid that they could steal pieces . So do u have any tips , I just want the the up and the back of the console .ps my is Xbox is 2 years old .

this is by far the most clear disassembly video of XBX on the internet
I like how he casually misses a screw on reassembly
10/10 engineering. Look at the mess that is the ps5 compared to this beauty.
Atleast you don't need to break the warranty seal to clean the ps5. You literally just slide the plate off and unscrew the fan
@@majorasspain5341you dont void your warranty it's an official statement by Microsoft
@@phatburger7622 you need to break the warranty sticker on the Xbox to clean it so yes you can void it depending where you are from

There was so much fucking dust in mine holy I don’t have the right tools so I only took the back plate off and cleaned out what I could with what I had, my heat sync was absolutely caked so I got everything I could off that and some little bunnies piled in the crevices it already sounds so much better it was turning into a ps4 jet😂 can’t wait to fully clean it
He did not remove the fan clip that easily
Hi good evening, what do you recommend on PlayStation 5 thermal paste or liquid metal? Thank you
I’m scared I’m going to have a brain fart and forget how to put it back together 😂
Hi, I recently had my xbox serviced by microsoft because it would shut down during Gears 5 at random intervals of gameplay. Now that it has been returned the issue has been fixed but I can't insert a disc into the drive, there's no suction at all...I'd like to avoid sending it in again. Do you think a ribbon cable or something could be unplugged?
"You need a Torx T8 screwdriver".
Me: well, it seems I'll pass on this quest.
The screwdrivers are pretty cheap, it's worth it imo.
@@Tbh_Smelly I mean I don't even know how to use those things 😅😅
Thanks for the video I was watching a video 2 days ago because my Xbox was getting really hot fast so I took the back off and simply cleaned my heat sink, next weekend I’m going to try to take the fan off and see if I can find dust there taking it one step at a time😂😂
