Honestly, just make sure there's enough space for a decent air flow. About 4 inches above should be fine.
Keep at least 4 inches of clearance on all sides of the Xbox Series X for optimal airflow and cooling. Trust me, your console will thank you!
I've got my Xbox Series X in a tight space, but I left around 4 inches above it and haven't had any issues with overheating.
