RUMOUR: Xbox One leaking liquid? - Two cases reported so far
- Thread starter Vashetti

Strange. Mine only gets lukewarm at most. It feels like an air-conditioner conpared to my last-gen systems.
If I'm not playing games, it doesn't even feel warm.
I'd agree. I had my X1 on for about 7 hrs today and it was barely warm.

Nooooo it doesn't. Even when locked on a closed, poorly ventilated cupboard and left on all day.
Why is thread so big by the way?
Is this problem actually a thing or what?

I'm sure it's been asked before, but where are the butts from?
It is an isolated issue but this thread is gold. It should be required reading

I really hope that isn't or doesn't become a widespread problem.
But I have to give thanks for creating a thread this entertaining.

I believe it's Jada Stevens and Kelly Divine from Car Wash Girls 2. I could be wrong though.

Looks like a PS4 in that picture.
That is a PS4.
I could swear I already read this story somewhere
EDIT: googling "dreamcast pubes" brought this up http://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/iaw74/sega_dreamcast_fuck_yea/c22bl3e
My console(PS4) has that white stuff on back in vents and I have yet to take to the cover off. I thought it was from running my humidifier with vicks vapor rub(which I run 8-10 hours at night time 7 days aweek) but now that I see that somebody else has it so Im not sure about that.
You may have to zoom in since I took a quick pic but up close it looks like dry liquid and thats why I assumed it was the humidifer.
Cover off
And me wiping it off which in fact comes over very easy and seems powder like. Has no smell also to it lol.
Edit: The white stuff was also not there on the day that I received it from Amazon on launch day. Noticed it about a week ago but as I said above thought it was the Vicks Rub in the humdifier and just moved it to another room. I'v wiped it down now and will see what happens in another month or so.

Is that a PS4? That looks not really healthy. But no idea.
Yeah, its a PS4. Should have included that in my original post.

About 10 reports of overly loud bricks in the launch OT which most have had replaced, Xbox forums have a few more reports and youtube has videos, also reports of it causing crashes are the main reports.

Reminds me of when my folks bought a PC with a melted PSU from a thrift store. We all thought someone pissed in it and the liquid was still in there at first.

Maybe a new thread is in order. Next gen consoles leaking.
a pube is required for confirmation that Terry was there.

You're being hopeful right? Its not as funny the 2nd time on different hardware.
TTSupra, is your humidifier ultrasonic? They release a white, powdery substance that tends to stick to glossy surfaces. If you're running your humidifier a lot I can almost guarantee you that's what it is. I used to have a humidifier like that and it gave me similar trouble, so I switched to a steam/ultrasonic hybrid one and the white powder is no more.
