Xbox One X Teardown - What's Inside???

The Xbox One X is here and I tore it down! Today I received my Xbox One X Project Scorpio edition. I unbox it on camera, then get to the teardown.
The case halves slide apart and reveal a metal case enclosing the innards of the console. After removing the metal shields we get to the main components, the disc drive, power supply and fan assembly. After removing all of those I find the hard drive tucked under them.
I remove that then take off the x-clamp to reveal a lot of thermal pads under the heat sink. The heat sink itself is huge. An interesting find is the thermal paste. It was already dried out and crusty.
Hope you enjoyed the teardown and let me know if you have any questions in the comments section.

What other videos do you want me to make about this console?

[RobChurch]

For those wondering the HDD is a Seagate ST1000LM035 5400rpm (not 7200rpm some have been saying). Sata 6Gb/s interface, 140MB/s transfer rate, 128mb cache.

Im glad to see how easily the case opened up. With the 1s you had to use a can opener.

It is funny because I've been waiting about 3 months on you to do a video on tearing down the Xbox one and now it's finally here

[davidshively]

Love it. Been waiting for the X for a while now, thx for the videos

[hohydrox]

Thanks again for another great tutorial. After doing a teardown, clean and thermal replacement for the PS4 Pro, I figured it was time for the Xbox One X to get the same treatment, plus an SSD upgrade. Even though I've had them both for roughly the same length of time, I feel like the X had a lot more dust in there.

you take your time to answer every comment. that's​ super cool of you.

So today i watched your first video and liked it, i decided to watch some more, and it wasn't a bad idea!

[pengekcs]

great teardown, thanks! I like it when a brand spanking new something is torn down right away without even switching it on once to see whether it works :)

[anthony]

Once again tronicsfix doesn't disappoint!🙏🔥🔥🔥🔥

[jcai]

can you make a heat test comparing both ps4 and X?

[kearneytaaffe]

Dumb question, would replacing the thermal pads on the RAM chips with thermal paste also be a good idea or would the motherboard wiggle too much spreading the paste too thin when reassembling?
Thanks again for making this video!

hi steve.like before start watching you are the man.keep the good work

Crazy, can’t upgrade internal hard drive without taking it completely apart. Took 5 minutes to upgrade the internal hard drive on the PS4 pro. Getting x1x tomorrow, but after getting used to a console with a SSD I don’t want to go back to a spinning disc hard drive ☹️

Iphone X? Xbox one X?


Conspiracy? Maybe.



Hotel? Trivago

9:41 What tool did u use to the X clamp off??

[dreadthelight]

My friends Scorpio just started over heating. I think it's the paste. 2 months out of warranty.
