One thing that you didn't mention in your video is that the processor is different. It is now a 6nm processor which requires less power so less cooling is needed, hence the heat sink design change.
Would look cool putting the old black green stand on the robot white series X with the green black stand being more highlighted with the white of the new X
That would most likely require some software modification as well. If the system still has some UI thing to eject discs or such, (IDR if the regular boxes actually have that. ?) then maybe. But I still figure that would be quite a maybe.
I just subscribed to your channels a little while ago and I wanted to say how much I enjoy your videos. The Restorish channel is great too. You've helped me gain a little confidence in working on my electronics, even if it's just upgrading my PCs or general simple repair stuff. Thanks 👍
The little fail at the end, made me laugh, but this is what I was talking about in the discord server, leaving some fails, to show people even the best can do some mistakes 😂👍 great video, and I am certainly waiting the video of trying to put the disk drive into the digital
Looks like your feeling much better and I am glad to see that man! Great video and yes plese do a video checking to see if the old style heat sink cools better than the new or if they work the same. Always interesting to find out. Praying you have a full recovery!
Hi Steve, something about the power supply is missing. It should have an amp Reading of 12v 21.25 amps. 12v 5 amps should be the supporting rail. So I believe the lowered just the supporting rail for the disc Drive.
Enjoy watching your videos more than I thought I would. You’re lookin much healthier lately as well. Look forward to seeing how you tear apart the next gen consoles soon.
Personally I see it as pointless - if you're spending the cash for the all digital version I'd rather spend the extra £30 here & get the full thing when there's less than 10% difference, if it had been like the PS5 then there's a decision, but the £30 in savings is barely worth thinking about. Nice to see it's essentially the same thing internally, should mean the availability of parts is widespread & easy to handle!
I'm not a gamer, but will these "digital" consoles be useless bricks in say 15 years if you pull one out of your closet and want to relive some games you used to play? I assume they all require on line sign in, and those servers will be long gone.
Of course we want to see you transfer the components to see if the disc drive can be enabled :) presumably it would need a firmware flash as well though? Looking good dude.
I absolutely would like a future video with interchangeable components for the disc drive and the heat sink. It would be cool to measure re and after temperatures as well.
@@topherd1011 hey man you're the one thinking invisible men exist. people like steve and i have actual knowledge and dont rely on nonsense magic wishes. try thinking for yourself sometime. oh wait, you can't... your religion prevents any common sense.
@@Tronicsfix it honestly has me really worried about my Series X. I love the thing, saved up 3 months for it. I wouldn't want it to become useless because of its SSD. I am strongly considering getting an Xbox One again due to it being more repairable
@@vinyminotaur2694 just say ur still on Xbox One cuz u couldnt get a SX yet bro. Nobody would go backwards and get a Xbox One just because of the SSD being locked into the SX. Its ok that u cant afford yet, we're not judging UNTIL u come lying about it.
I own a SX but I don't really care for these "new" versions. I just clicked the video to see how you were doing and you look good and I'm glad for that. Keep getting better, bro. Cheers from Mexico.
Voltage is push, while amps is pull. So if you install a power supply that is higher voltage than your machine it will blow something, but if you install a power supply with a higher amperage it’s ok as your machine will only pull the amps it’s requires.
Just tell me, does the new heat sink which cools down the SDD, has the same weight to reach the SDD as previous model? Just to know if the SDD cage is worthless, and I can remove it , when I will clean the Xbox someday, happy to know you look so much better since the last time I saw u, congratulations :)
I don’t know why they made an all digital Series X when they had the Series S. The allure of the original Series X was that you could still go buy physical copies of the games and play them.
Of course we want to see if adding a drive is possible!! So are all the component marking gone or just lightened so you can't see them? If they're gone, that seems like an anti-repairable step!
not surprising they kept everything more or less the same in the console but I definitely believe they kept the screw slots for the disc drive in because they know people would rather have their physical copies
If you do, try to install the disk drive. Before you do any soldering, can you do a closer inspection of that side of the board (I know you would naturally) first? Because just pausing it, other than the soldered parts, there is quite a difference in that area that I am curious about.
you should definitely try to put the components for the discdrive from the original board on the digital board, it's interesting to know if is can be transformed into a disc version 🤔
Before attempting to swap heatsinks, you'll want to measure the package height of the old vs the new 6nm processor. If the stack height is different you could damage something if you swap heatsinks.
Surely you could place the disk drive components on the new model, but disc would never work as the driver is paired with the board, and that’s done at HWID level which is unique for each unit, but surely would be an interesting exercise
One thing that you didn't mention in your video is that the processor is different. It is now a 6nm processor which requires less power so less cooling is needed, hence the heat sink design change.
Yep, you're totally right. Not sure how I missed mentioning that. It's even in my notes, lol.
Also, the silk screen is missing on the newer model.
What about the new Series S model?
Would look cool putting the old black green stand on the robot white series X with the green black stand being more highlighted with the white of the new X
that could explain the changes all over the mother- and daughterboard
Man... You are looking so much better. Happy for you and thank you for all the videos!
Steve! You read my mind about wanting to see if a disc drive would work with this console. I'd love to see that. Great video!
Yeah I'm surprised the pads for the components are still there, every one of those boards is a new revision after all.
Me too I'd like to see that.
That would most likely require some software modification as well.
If the system still has some UI thing to eject discs or such, (IDR if the regular boxes actually have that. ?) then maybe. But I still figure that would be quite a maybe.
@@lemagreengreen Aren't they making any more SX with disc readers though? The node shrink board would still be used, and similar enough then.
Probably it will not work but I still want to see it you replacing that's parts .
You're looking so good!!!
Heck ya! Thanks!
@@Tronicsfix You're welcome! Lots of love, buddy!
@@interrobangingseu dude is a warrior
@@Tronicsfix did you beat cancer
I kinda get the reason why they lock some of that down… but it’s so reliant on parts that wear out or have faults, it become extremely frustrating.
Looking good Steve, ive missed a bit of your stuff and any updates the last few months but you are looking so much better
Thanks for mentioning the difference in output between the new psu and the old one and advising against using the new psu in an older model.

Yeah, my editor edits most of my videos but I usually edit videos with a time crunch like this one and I'm not as good of an editor as he is, lol
@@Tronicsfix it's ok 😜 excellent video as always!
Id really like to see the drive installed if possible... Also, I am very happy to see you are doing ok

Yes, I'd like to see the component install video.
I get a kick out of your videos. Glad your doing well.
You look healthy bro, I'm happy for ya
Dude your looking amazing!!!! So happy to see you looking on the up , how is everything going !?
I'd love to see a video of you trying to install a Disc drive on this new console, I'm very curious!
Hello there, glad you back on track and you looking good. Hope it stays the same. Awaiting future videos. Keep up the good work

I've been waiting for a video just like this for the new consoles what a coincidence it came on one of my favorite channels!

I don’t understand why they make this version. It’s the same size and removes an important aspect. The future is bleak for collectors
You look like you’re feeling a lot better these days man chemo can be brutal glad to see youre doing so well
My man, happy to see you looking good. Hoping for your complete recovery.
I'm not sure that was the perfect amount. There is usually a glittery heavenly light and an angelic choir when it's perfect on your videos.
I'm happy to see you like this!
It is our pleasure to see you try solder on the disc connector just to see if it works! Can’t wait for that video!
😂 Love the gaff, at the end. Great tear down. Day 1 xbxsrx still going strong. Vapor chamber now gone. Replacement heat pipes. Ms cost cutting.
im glad youre doing good man! i love your videos and wish you a healthy future
You are also “Pretty Repairable” it would seem bro. Glad you’re better! Lookin great👍.
As soon as i saw the bits missing i knew i could trust you to test it later, cant wait
Great progress on your recovery! Love your videos dude!
completely off topic here but, man Tronics looks very healthy and his Hairs coming back in nice!! loving the videos man!
Of course we want to see you transfer the components to see if the disc drive can be enabled :) presumably it would need a firmware flash as well though?
Looking good dude.
yes we would love to see u experiment with the disc drive install
DAMNNNN i hope you feel as good as you look
This was a nice twist from your other videos. Nice to see the hair coming back!
Prefect for Halloween time! Franken-xbox videos! Yes please!
Yes I'd love to see you try to make one of these a disk edition !
I absolutely would like a future video with interchangeable components for the disc drive and the heat sink. It would be cool to measure re and after temperatures as well.
Oh man. It's so nice to see you're doing better!!!
I thought you had a fridge in your hands in the thumbnail xD Looking good!!
You're looking so much healthier! Great video and glad to see you looking good.

It’s also going to interesting too see if the southbridge and other chips are the same and swappable for repair purposes.
You're looking great man. Hope you're feeling better.
Yep defo would be interesting to see if the digi series x will work with a disc drive or have MS altered the bios to remove disc drive in the digi.
Looking good brother!😊
It's good to see you're getting your hair back Steve
Shame the SSDs are locked with a unique key which will be a problem of it dies, rendering the console completely useless.
That's my least favorite thing about this generation of Xbox
@@Tronicsfix it honestly has me really worried about my Series X. I love the thing, saved up 3 months for it. I wouldn't want it to become useless because of its SSD. I am strongly considering getting an Xbox One again due to it being more repairable
You could always get a replacement SSD and clone it so you have it in case it goes bad.
@@Tronicsfix unfortunately the keys they use to pair them changes after every software update

Same, I just wanted to see how similar they are on the inside.

Greetings from Brazil.
Modding it with a disc drive will be really cool . Hoping you make that video
Nice Steve!
Bro, I hope you are doing ok. I really do wish you well. Great video as always.
Steve hope you’re doing well buddy. You look good.
Series X TRUE POWER
No heavenly orchestra sound for thermal paste D: cool teardown. Would like to see interchanging parts (disk drive/heat sinks)!
You look and so much better! Love the vids!
Would definitely love to see a video of trying to attach a disc drive to this!
Voltage is push, while amps is pull. So if you install a power supply that is higher voltage than your machine it will blow something, but if you install a power supply with a higher amperage it’s ok as your machine will only pull the amps it’s requires.
Thats so smart. I like the white and the discless X
Senti falta do efeito depois de aplicar a pasta térmica 😂
Awesome comparison Steve!😊
Just tell me, does the new heat sink which cools down the SDD, has the same weight to reach the SDD as previous model? Just to know if the SDD cage is worthless, and I can remove it , when I will clean the Xbox someday, happy to know you look so much better since the last time I saw u, congratulations :)
Anxiously waiting for Steve's Ps5 Pro teardown, maybe it's gonna be the 30th Anniversary limited edition 🤩
Your hair is growing back! Yay!! ❤
He applied the perfect amount of thermal paste without the holy music/edit added and I died a little inside not seeing it 😢
😂
I don’t know why they made an all digital Series X when they had the Series S. The allure of the original Series X was that you could still go buy physical copies of the games and play them.
Hope you’re doing well. Thanks for a other great video
Nice Video. Xbox had the best console Build. Why does people dont Like the Xbox. Its a so good console.
Of course we want to see if adding a drive is possible!! So are all the component marking gone or just lightened so you can't see them? If they're gone, that seems like an anti-repairable step!
love you man
7:29 u the best steve 😂
Yeah! I would like to see the disk drive to be mounted on the new console.
That is really a cool idea put the new board to the old case (for better ccoling)and try to run the disc drive on the new board
Thanks it is very illustrative
I cant wait to see the teardown of the PS5 pro!
Looking amazing Steve! ❤
Yes ofcourse. Please move components from old board to new digital board and run cd drive 😊
7:29 thats bold claim and oportunity LOL, if they take you up on ur offer, you can squeeze them dry out of money lol :D
not surprising they kept everything more or less the same in the console but I definitely believe they kept the screw slots for the disc drive in because they know people would rather have their physical copies
You’re one beautiful man, Steve. Thanks for the video 👌
Can he show us if we can fix it???? Yes he can! Thanks for the breakdown.
If you do, try to install the disk drive. Before you do any soldering, can you do a closer inspection of that side of the board (I know you would naturally) first? Because just pausing it, other than the soldered parts, there is quite a difference in that area that I am curious about.

Not sure if someone mentioned this or not. The power supplies may fit but since they have different amps, the pin outs could also be different.
Thanks for the teardown
I’d like to see you put a bigger SSD in it.
Thanks for the video Steve
Aaaand it's show up in recommendations only today. Well... I hope to see that experiments at some point
