Does the Xbox Series X Need a Cooling Fan?
Nope! The Xbox Series X already has an internal cooling system with a powerful fan and a heat sink. You’re good to go straight out of the box!

If you're not living in a sauna, the Xbox Series X has all the cooling it needs built in. No extra fan required!
Just make sure it’s in a well-ventilated area, and you’ll be golden. The Series X manages its own cooling just fine.
Had mine for months, never needed an extra fan. It’s designed to handle heat on its own!
