There are several add-on RGB fans that just snap onto the top of the X so you don't have to open it up and futz with the existing fan. Plus you get more air pulled through the console.
P.s. in the United States opening your console does NOT void your warranty as of 2020. However if you need to send your Xbox in for repair remove this LED kit.
Bro not sure what your talking about but removing that sticker doesn’t void warranty Microsoft made it easy to take back off so you can open and clean console!
I bought the dust filters but I only installed the plastic pieces to cover the disc tray, usb, storage and power ports but other then that I don’t recommend you using the dust filters on you’re console while playing. Unless you have you’re console stored in a dusty are and is not in use or function then use the dust filters but when playing take them off
Never add dust filter on the top of the Xbox as that’s the exhaust fan. The back is fine, but 90% of the air intake comes in from the bottom of the Xbox. Yes, that’s open and nearly impossible to seal, but I’m sure someone will make a filter in the future.
@@Lalelulilo101 PC’s don’t have air filters on a Exhaust fans… only intakes. And Consoles are designed to NOT have any sort of Filter. Filters Make airflow worse on a Single fan console Which is designed in a certain way to maximise Air for cooling with zero Issues. Blocking that air Can make the system run hot or overheat. Especially if you block the exhaust fan. This person is Correct with what they are saying. You just don’t understand what YOUR talking about
@@ARXInfinite First of all, if PCs have them on intake fans, and by his meaning that those filters STOP airflow then that would make PCs overheat as the airflow would not GET INTO the PC. So maybe you should understand how airflow works. Secondly I have a dust filter on mine by Mcbezel, I've had it on since day 1 and I am currently in a very hot heatwave.. guess what? 8 hours of playtime 0 heat issues. So unless you have one and experience with them on a console don't say anything.
@@Lalelulilo101 your just proving that you have no idea what your talking about. Pc uses Standard Airflow config. Series X for example uses a Custom Configuration So air is exhausted In a wide path. Obstructing this Designed path will cause issues.
Consider getting yourself a skyhook for overhead views which are needed sometimes when doing a disassembly. Otherwise excellent video. I will be doing a similar video with a hard wired LED in the top and bottom of the Series X.
Yes they do!!!! Smart question, MORE of you should be asking this. It’s BASIC COMMON SENSE!! If you’re adding these screen vents onto your console geuss what?? You’re now DECREASING the amount of COOL air flow and making it HARDER for your console to work and stay cool. PUTTING THESE VENTS ON CAUSE YOUR XBOX TO RUN HARDER BECAUSE YOUR MAKING THE COOLING VENTS SMALLER WITH THESE STUPID PROTECTIVE SCREENS. God these companies make a KILLING SELLING THESE BS ACCESSORIES YOUR CONSOLES DONE NEED! The console MANUFACTURER already DESIGNED THE CORRECT WAY!
@@prevail2983 hey man! So you’re right & wrong here.. there should be no screens over the exit areas/exhaust because the air is blowing out so dust won’t come in Putting screens at the exhaust would also build back pressure & slow down overall airflow That being said, dust is the real culprit of heating issues here- dust build up is what causes most overheating issues, as it blankets & traps heat. Hence why a dusty radiator is less effective- it can’t dissipate any hear So adding dust screens to the entrance points of the Xbox would absolutely benefit the console
@ Completely wrong, bro I build anything in between vehicles to Gaming/Entertainment hardware to TV’s/Sound systems. Nothing bothers me more then these BS companies selling you “ways to keep your console from overheating”, and the customers who are not educated or have any mechanical knowledge. it would benefit in one way, less dust. But guess what your trading it for a HOTTER XBOX, for less airflow and making your fan work harder. Think of it this way, you put a screen over a vent what happens? You’re reducing your air intake. Because you’re putting a screen in front of the vent wholes. Second, putting a screen on top of the exhaust (your fan) your reducing the flow of blowing out the heat. That screen will also get pretty damn warm making the fan system become even warmer. -My series X is Almost 4 years old and guess what? You shine a flashlight into it and it looks brand new with no dust. All you have to do is keep your console off the floor and buy a can of compressed air and blow it into the vents of your console every 3 months. If you’d like a picture for proof let me know
@@prevail2983 but the benefit you listed yourself: less dust. That means less heat. Dust buildup is what causes overheating issues, it blankets your hardware, obstructs airflow, locks in heat & clogs up anything that diffuses heat Mesh on intakes would hinder airflow a little bit, add a fan to push through & you’d be fine Also, because of the mesh restriction, a higher air pressure might actually give you a cooling boost Idk, this discussion has me curious tho- I might have to test temps with screens & added fans
@ buddy the less dust can be avoided be simply cleaning your Xbox every 3 months with a can of compressed air. By the way putting anything over the factory vents does not Benefit by giving a “Boost”. This isn’t an engine, where you remove the stock intake and thick air filter and throw in a cold air intake. You’re doing the opposite on your Xbox! You’re adding dust filters that were not designed to the Xbox series X cooling system. By putting on multiple dust covers, on the bottom vents that are the intake that sucks cold air in to also putting dust covers on the top exhaust. You’re making it hard to suck Cold air in and HOT air out. This doesn’t make a boost for the fan, your actually making it harder for the fan to spin because your adding all these restrictions. -If you want to cover the top of your serves x when not using it to stop dust from dropping inside that’s fine. But adding vent covers on the intakes and exhaust holes are making those wholes smaller. It just boils down to common sense. Remember most people don’t clean their consoles ever. Others are lazy to avoid cleaning them by buying all this crap to “prevent” maintenance meanwhile their reducing the life span :/ - look if I didn’t know what I was talking about I wouldn’t give out false info or personal opinions. I don’t do that, that stuff is NOT cool (literally lol) From my experience, my friends always have me repair there consoles (since the 360 days) and being honest, most of them who need me to fix their consoles? The issue was either lack of maintenance or all those “cooling junk”accessories added onto the bottom and top on their consoles INCLUDING lack of maintenance. The series X was designed by its cooling system first. It’s one of the best designs ever made, because heat rises therefore they made a fan on top to suck the heat that’s already naturally rising
You can actually get this really cool extra top fan with a dust filter it just clips on top of the Xbox series X has led lights around it the filter would help from dust a little bit but the holes are not to small witch is a good thing I think and the extra fan had 3 speed mods there kinda louder on the highest speed on the lowest you don't even notice it and the LED lights can change a bunch of colours or if you hold it in it can change colours every few seconds
@@BR-jc6rs it's literally made of the Xbox series X and it doesn't spin the fan backwards it literally spins the same way as the normal Xbox fan dose I've did research and it won't do any harm
@@BR-jc6rs I read that it was safe from Microsoft site it recommends using a top cooling fan system if you plan to use your console for hours at a time I'm thinking about getting the g-story brand cooling fan it even shows you the temperature and turns on and off when not needed

Sadly you’ll give up a USB 3.0 port and get a 2.0 port from the stand kit.

Got an article or link? I need proof because I just bought series X, but want RGB fan!
Bro not sure what your talking about but removing that sticker doesn’t void warranty Microsoft made it easy to take back off so you can open and clean console!
There's a plate you can buy and it just makes the holes on the top smaller so nothing will ever fall into them or the fan
1:13 this shot reminds me of the world trade center memorials when they have the lights on. Looks really cool.

Actually most of the air comes in from the back vent.
that's the most rubbish I've heard. If that were true why do expensive PCs come with them these days?? 🤣🤣

Did your Xbox have a burning smell when new and if so did it go away after time?
can you have the bottom fan on without the colors on? because i already have a seperate LED strip at the bottom of my series X
What is that light strip you have beneath your tv ?
Consider getting yourself a skyhook for overhead views which are needed sometimes when doing a disassembly. Otherwise excellent video. I will be doing a similar video with a hard wired LED in the top and bottom of the Series X.
How’s the sky hook coming along? You still look like a dead channel.
Doesn’t Microsoft say no to use filters because of heat?

Can you use wireless headphones and is there any problems!
I'm not into PlayStation anymore but that's cool what you did
dust filters only on intake fans never on exhaust you will block air and cause more dust to get trapped in the system.
Ven-nomm 😂 … it’s like snake venom, dude
it doesn't have glowing lights at the top of the console cuz of this thing called cost, engineering problems most civilians dont care about...
The only thing that slightly “enhanced” it is the dust cover.
Warranties can’t be voided in the US
Can i connect my elite series 1 paddles to the series 2 ?
This is such a gimmick for flashy lights... And you reduce air flow 🤦♂️
It doesn’t reduce airflow goofy
PC been doing this for years, there’s never been an issue if you believe that this causes problems then you’re a flat earth person.
The sticker doesn’t void your warranty
