Cooling Fan for Xbox Series X with Automatic Fan Speed Adjustable by Temperature, LED Display, High Performance Cooling,3 Speed 1500/1750/2000RPM (140MM) with RGB LED (Black)

The media could not be loaded. I was talking to a friend who said he had bought an additional cooling fan for his series X and had noticed some performance benefits, so I started to look to see what options there were.All cooling fans currently on offer, the reviews all seem to say there's noise from the fan but I would kind of expect that anyway.I kept returning to this one because it had a temperature sensor and would turn on and off when the system needed it, where the others seemed to be manual which I thought would be a pain to keep having to turn them off and on again.So back to this fan, it seems well made and is extremely simple to set up! Just take it out of the box, put it ontop of your series x and plug it in..... That's it.You can change it to manual so you can choose the fan speeds which are represented by a different colour and more noticeable.... An increase in fan speeds which naturally means a louder fan noise.On idle the series X seems to sit at about 21°C and whilst doing minimal things like navigating the menus and watching YouTube etc, you shouldn't see the temperature go above 27°C although the temperature of your home could effect this if you're heating is on and how well your console is ventilated etc.When you start to play something a little more demanding of the system like a game, you'll see the temperature rise to about 34°C and the second it hits 35°C, the fan kicks in and the top glows green.(The next 2 settings are blue and then red, which both have an increased fan noise as you'd imagine, but I've been playing games for hours on end and it's never got past 36° before it's cooled back down to 34° and shut off)After a couple of minutes of running, the fan reduces the temperature to 34°C and the fan will cut off again.I liked this as it wasn't a constant and yes, although you can hear the fan, it's not really any louder than my Xbox one used to sound when it's fans kicked in. Plus, if you're like me and wear a headset, you won't notice the fan whilst it's on.So all in all, it's a reasonable price, seems well made, has an auto mode that will do everything for you and works very well😁👌🏻

Very easy to set up and pretty accurate temperature as the display temp is one degree cooler than a separate room thermometer.The highest temperature I have seen on the display is 41 degrees whilst playing a game and that includes having the dust cover on top, take it off and the temperature drops to 38.The fan set to automatic will only start up when it reaches 35 degrees.How quiet is it? Well it is fairly quiet but will get louder as the temperature increases the same as the consoles fan, so you have to remember that you have the noise of both fans all the time after reaching 35 degrees.The fan led light will change colour as the fan speed increases and you can change the temperature display from Celsius to Fahrenheit.My only negative is that the front display remains on all the time even when the console is off, you can only turn the led fan lights off.The fan also comes with a set of rubber blanking plugs and a pair of adhesive dust covers for the rear vent. It also comes with the top dust cover and a pair of clips which when fitted in the top you have two plastic solid hooks on the sides to hang a controller or headset.I would recommend this as you can hardly hear it with the sound from the TV but we're all different, may be unbearable to others, give it a try you can always send it back.The way I got round the display constantly being on was to plug it into a usb hub with independent switches so you can just turn it off.

Great bit of kit if dust and temperatures are a problem. The vent covers and port covers are a great addition to ensure no dust is being pulled in by the fans unit. Then the usb unit supplied plugs in and sits on top, there 2 modes which are great one is user controled the 2nd is the unit reads the temperature output and adjusts the fan according which means the fan dose not have to run constantly.There is a sound from the fan but that's what fans do.
