I think the overall goal from the same individuals is to shut down discussion on the topic. You have 2 journalist that have documented their experiences of having XSX preview consoles running considerably hot. So hot that they've described it with abnormal adjectives. These are people that cover gaming, and are around consoles and so so for a living They know what to expect from consoles. When they make those points it's not out of the blue or for malicious reasons. Nothing has been debunked. The SSD is just a symptom now that we have corroboraing evidence from someone that did not mention the portable SSD at all. Stands to reason if a portable SSD is inside a system that's running too hot it will by extension be hot. So the SSD is not an isolated factor, it's part of the potential issue if there is one.
Obviously that could be normal operating procedure but I doubt it. At any rate it puts into question longevity. Could be faulty hardware. Many reasons why. Now to deny that the issue exists and has been reported and documented is beyond laughable at this point. So yes don't pay attention to the children throwing a fit over their favorite box being discussed on a topic they perceive to be negative to its image. It's a primal reaction.
Yep 100%, i think the main problem here is when people try to discuss it, the xbox fanatics think people are just attacking their favorite piece of hardware.
Your not allowed to have a discussion about anything.
Even if you bring facts, link reviews from legitimate people like i did with the ps5 cooling system, they try to dismiss it or move the goalposts because somehow in their mind its attacking their bit of plastic. that is the sad truth in here.
Then you get even more silly remarks like this video is not credible, when it is clearly talking about other people that have had that experience, that french podcast for example.
But best not to carry on, this will only upset people and lets be honest trying to have a discussion here is pointless.
