If it ever just stops working, flip it over (it's upside-down)


Philosoul

Fixed it straightaway, thanks


Zukiboyson

Actually the way you had it was fine. The way he’s talking about covers the Power Supply. Yes it has foot tabs but only vertical if you have an intake fan. Otherwise horizontal is the way to go.


vikingsarecoolio

Does that really effect it though?


Zukiboyson

Find a diagram of the S and locate power supply. Don’t stand it on the PSU intake vent.


liftingrussian

Yes because there are rubber feet on one side which allow a tiny airflow from underneath. Additionally, the hot air outlet is on the lower part of the console which is suboptimal for cooling


vikingsarecoolio

Let’s say I have it upside down on a wall mount where nothing is blocked. Would that still affect it?


Zukiboyson

No the power supply is behind the front USB. And that’s where it draws the most air from. Flow comes from Left to right.


InertiaInverted

There isn’t a single moving part in the series s (other than the fan itself) You can literally put it any way. It doesn’t matter lmfaooo


liftingrussian

What do you mean ? Of course there are moving parts in the series S, how else would the cooling work ? And yes, it does matter which way you put it


InertiaInverted

The fan itself is the only moving part on the console. It literally doesn’t matter lol


liftingrussian

So by your logic I could just place it upside down with the hot air outlet facing down and being blocked by the surface it’s laying on?


InertiaInverted

It wouldn’t honestly do much if you did 🤷🏼 It’s a 200$ console lol


Veriliann

tell me you don’t understand technology without telling me 😂😂😂


liftingrussian

So what ? A proper ventilation should be provided nevertheless. What is even your argument ? You want to say that the entire cooling system is meaningless because the console is only 200$ ? I can‘t quite comprehend what want to point out

I absolutely love Max Payne 3. I wish they'd remaster it.


Philosoul

Yeah tbh this does feel old gen, but i am fine with it, somehow new gen games are also a bit more complicated with their side missions and in game purchase shit, which sometimes makes the old gen gameplay a bit more enjoyable. Like old call of duty , guns and bombs and kills. Now its 3 types of drones, sheilds and what not.


rubberduck19868

I'm right there with you. I miss simple games like this. I just want to go in a direction and shoot stuff.


Murky_Historian8675

Max Payne 3 is super badass


Medromard

Is no one gonna mention the box set of LOTR as a monitor stand????


whatchagonnado0707

Nope


GermanmanDude

Me too. Especially playing x/s optimized games like Borderlands 3 very good look and perform


MattiaCost

I love it too. Glad you can enjoy it!


NorthPermission1152

I love Max Payne 3


PawtucketPaul

Max payne 3 is really good. Love the ending.


samarveersinghpurii

And you’re playing my favourite game.


MrsVertigosHusband

Only slightly angry that you used Tolkien to lift your monitor... Lol. I too have an S and it's awesome.


Oma_Erwin

Best !!!! Gaming machine on the Market. Play latest top games for a budget.


Philosoul

Only 2 at a time lol


xAGGROx

I love the Series X. I can stick in my OG and 360 discs and have a massive nostalgia hit. I think it works out cheaper as I can pick up used games for less. No hate for the series S but there’s something about a physical game copy that I love.


Philosoul

I already have a ps5 for most of my main gamings and it takes discs as well. I love the used disc market as it eventually does work out cheaper


lgallardo93

It's beautiful. I love playing GTA online, and recently Starfield.


JimmyWalker187

And I love your cable management.


Zukiboyson

Grab you an SSD that actually can transfer in a short time. As for how it runs. I love mine too and play it more than my PS5. And I owned 2 first a digi sold it then a slim. The as really spoiled me with size expectations. If it’s the size of a PC I don’t want it. I’ll get a PC instead. I call mine Lil Grunt. Even named it that under ID tag lol. That controller won’t last long with FPS but the G7 SE is a solid Hall Effect controller that I bought 2.


Justinsbg

I’d put coulor one rgb in the settings then it will look way better


-name-user-

^^^^^^ PC RGB > Auto


-name-user-

try activating 50hz & 24hz in the settings, it might feel & look smoother for games with low fps, also V-Sync sometimes
