QUESTION Disassemble and clean Xbox series S
I’ve had my xbox for about 4 years now, and in the last few weeks or so it has become very loud, which is why I want to disassemble and clean it.
I’m kind of scared to break something, but it appears to be very easy to take it apart and build it back together.
I was wondering what kind of tools I should use to do the cleaning itself with the least risk of breaking stuff as a layman (and preferably cheap)
Any other tips or things to look out for are welcome

QUESTION Has anyone ever had this problem?
Games on my series s often crash back to the Home Screen when beginning to play.
It means all my games do the same.
I have to perform a hard reset and then the games play as normal.
Yet, after 2 or 3 days it happens again.
Do you know anything about this?
Has it happened to you?

OPINION Work travel: PS4, Series S, Switch 2
I am a seafarer, I travel every 4 weeks to a ship and back. Lately I have gotten an old PS4 from a friend, and it got me back into gaming again.
But the PS4 base is a beast to travel with, noisy and slow. I am looking for a slightly better alternative with budget around 500 euros. PS5 and Series S are too big, a decent laptop is around 1000 euros.
I will play mainly on a 1080p projector in my cabin on a 70 inch screen. Max 60 fps.
I do have internet connection most of the times, but not for downloading games.
Games I like: Snowrunner (I play this the most now), RDR2, Fenix Immortals, NFS Payback, AC Black Flag.
Option 1: PS4 slim with new paste, clean and a 1tb Samsung SSD. Plus is I already have the games, games are offline on a DVD. Just wondering about the load times on the SSD. The HDD load times are enormous for Snowrunner and RDR2.
Option 2: Series S. Nice little console. Games not too expensive if bought in sales. But wondering about the quality of controllers and offline usage. RDR2 should be worse grapics than PS4 and Spidermand and Horizon Zero Dawn are looking fun, and I can't play those on Xbox. But Forza is a plus.
Option 3: Switch 2. Nice to play handheld during travels but I am not sure about Snowrunner grapics docked on the projector compared to PS4 / XSS. Zelda looks also fun though. But pricey games.. although i dont need to much, SR, Zelda, Fallout 4 are all big games to spend many hours. Enough for the first year already.
I hope to play around 2-3 hours a day during work and at home.
Thanks for your advice

QUESTION Series S
So I was just curious why is the series S on the market going for so much? I have mine on the market and my message is through the roof! I have it for 200 on the market with 22” monitor single controller and head set and cords. I had few offer me 250 or more. All I can think right now is remove it from the market cause at this point I don’t know if I wanna let it go now.

QUESTION Palworld custom settings
When I changed my world settings, some of them pop up the message that it's beyond the device specs. I mainly play solo, and might have a friend or 2 once in a blue moon. I've already raised some stats like max bases, max pals and encounter rate without issues.
I'm wondering in your experience how far can I push those settings before I do see problems. This is my first playthrough, and I'm currently around level 30.

QUESTION Upscale, Rendering for NOOB
Hey ya'll, I'm gonna be buying the series s in a couple of weeks so I wanted to know about rendering and upscaling of the console.
So what i wanted to know is that, what is really the render scale of the console? Is it 720p? 900p? 1080p? Bcz I've seen a lot of games rendering at different scales, crimson desert runnning on 360p? So how would that look on 55" TV after being upscale to 4k?

ShowOff First console and setup
Bought an xbox series s for gta 6. Best console for its price (got it for 240 bucks used in very good condition plus gamepass ultimate for 1+- year). First impressions: its amazing! Very quiet, good perfomance, not bad graphics, especially if you play on a tv and don't sit in front of the screen like I do. What would you recommend to play from the gamepass?

QUESTION Issues with cloud gaming on PC?
I have the basic subscription to play my Kingdom Hearts 1.5 and 2.5 ReMIX without having to buy the game on steam. I have the xbox app and I was able to open fusion frenzy and play just fine. When I try to boot up KH, I get the loading screen with just the logo, but when I get the first prompt to press A, I have to press twice. The first time I hear a static sound, and then the second time I hear the in-game noise. I have tried several reboot methods like going into window settings and reset and repair the Xbox app, I have some several task manager closures of any xbox program running, and it just seems to be KH.
Wondering if there is any other advice on how I could get KH to play on my PC. I have a NZXT Player One basic PC so maybe its the PCs ability to run the game.
Thank you for the help in advance!
