  • The Xbox Series X is out in just a few days and the quality of the system and what it is able to do in games is very impressive. Today I wanted to take a look inside the console to see how Microsoft put it together and the overall quality of parts used.

    Apologies for the reupload, I had an issue with rendering in the original video.
    I record the raw footage at 4K so that I can crop and zoom without losing quality and for some reason the opening video clip of the original file showed the 4K size instead.
    Enjoy the video and thanks for watching!

    I love how they did the same thing they did with the 360 but this time they did it slow and smart. They jammed all that tech in that rectangular box but this time they thought it through. Instead of thinking about trying to beat Sony out to stores, they actually are seriously competing against the PS5 with how they designed this. I really want one!! I am not leaving Sony, but it’s worth having both!! 🤔

      @@jonathanoxlade4252 I don't think so. They make components in bulk so any change means re configuring the factories. They likely would bring out an upgraded form once technology has advanced and they have developed it further so that the existing cooling is enough for better hardware.
      With these systems though I can actually can see them bringing out cheaper versions. That they can reduce the heat capacity enough to shrink the heatsink and fan and use less quality components. Also just make them smaller so that more can fit into a store or into a truck. Almost every successful console has a version like that. Wii mini, NES top loader, PS3 superslim, PS2 slim, Genesis m2 and so forth.

      @retr0 Nah the design is clean and will match most decent entertainment setups. The point is that it blends in with your speakers, TV etc so when you're playing, your focus is on the game.
      Not that PS5 looks bad, it's just a different design philosophy. The Xbox blends into your setup, the PS5 screams at you to look at it. Both will find their niches

    I disagree on the last words. It's fairly easy to take the Series X apart. Follow a good instruction and keep your screws organized and nothing can go wrong. Much easier than the Xbox 360 for example. MS really did a great job with designing this console. Even as a PC builder Im impressed by the chosen eletrical components, the thick pcbs, the amount of aluminum(middle plate) as well of copper(vapor chamber). I counted 15 vrm phases which is huge and almost overkill for a circa 280 watt tdp device, but helps the console to be very power efficient. In contrast Sony uses an 8 phase design for the PS5.

    The photo documentation and screw-grouping tips at 17:15 are great. It's easy to lose track of things in unfamiliar hardware. I recommend taking extra care whenever multiple screw lengths are used. Depending on the particular hardware, extra photos of screws near their corresponding holes may do the trick, but you can also stick them through paper to keep them arranged and prevent them from rolling around or otherwise getting separated. If the screws are too thick and/or flat to push through the paper easily just use a tack or a staple to make a small hole first.

    I appreciate the eye contact you maintain with the camera. It makes a really big difference tbh makes me feel like you are actually talking to me.

    Very impressive engineering. Really well done, I am going with the X-Box. Cute how he converted his kid's T-Ball bat into a screwdriver.

    Badass video. I like the commentary that went along with it all, helped get the main points across. I am guessing Microsoft told you that you weren't allowed to record yourself putting on custom thermal paste, for some reason. Did it actually make any difference? I'd be really curious to see the temperatures before and after..

    Great looking internal setup,definitely a beast to be called s console. Thanks for the great teardown video mate. Both consoles have given us a lot to be excited in such a tough year. No need for competition in a matter of days we get to play these two monoliths of gaming engineering for ourselves.

    Thank you for your clip. I appreciate that you have kept the terminology simple. It helps us 60 year olds understand the new stuff so much easier. I am getting one of these so I can play a few games with my granchildren AND also use the 4k Bluray player. It is 4k isn't it? Again, thanks heaps from New Zealand. $800 NZD by the way to buy one.
