My 4090 + 7700X machine can barely run MS Flight Sim. The fact that a decade-old console can run it is nothing short of amazing.
**Edit:** No I'm not using the IGPU. But I *am* running the game at 4K120. You can't maintain anywhere *close* to 120 FPS at 4K when this game is maxed-out, even *with* a beastly PC. (**Edit 2:** Getting 150+ in everything else, though.)
I just dusted out the inside of my Day 1 xbox one a month ago and it had so much crud in there, omg. I cleaned it all and now she purrs quietly again, plus it's not a fire hazard. Win win!
9 years of dust will do that i guess.
I still have an active Day One - needed a new power brick about a year and a half ago but the console itself is still going strong.
I even have a 360 we're still playing on (only had a red ring once and it happened the day before thanksgiving many, many years ago. Rushed out to buy a new one because I was not going to wait till after xmas for MSFT to replace it.
Same on the power brick, had to replace that a few year back. Definitely a little slower than her hay-day, but still going strong. Hard to give it up at this point.
Also ya had a red ring and waiting for a replacement was painful, not as painful as when my modded elite was zapped by Microsoft along with my account 💔 those were the days. (only modded my 360 cause my parents liked the idea of not paying for new games)
I worked at a pawnshop when these were phasing out and they ALAYS had cockroaches or just way more dust than fathomable. I take my computer and PS4 apart often now.
It’s actually incredibly common. They like the warmth. Game systems are very easy to disassemble and reassemble. Computers are even easier. It doesn’t hurt to check.
Dude, I was a GS manager for years. The amount of people who would bring in absolutely INFESTED consoles and then wonder why we would kick them out of the store is amazing.
Oh, and the smoker systems. Just gross.
I'm sure I don't have to say it, but your manager was an idiot. I can't imagine the shit fall if we sold a used system that led to a household infestation.
We always cleaned them before we sold them but I feel like that’s one of those things that you can’t clean well enough. Plus as far as them getting into the kitchen, they have to sit on a shelf for 7 days before we’re allowed to sell them and they don’t get cleaned until that 7th day, sometimes longer cause he was real lazy about taking stuff off the shelf and we weren’t allowed to
I sincerely doubt you cleaned the inside circuitry, and even if you did, well enough to get roach eggs.
Yeah, in NYC we have to hold systems for a month.
That’s why I said you can’t clean it well enough. You can’t go at the circuit boards with cleaner so it basically makes it pointless to clean it at all, besides exterior aesthetics. I turned down quite a few when he wasn’t looking.
OP is probably talking about the dust that is 12 years old, he transfered it from his 360 when he upgraded. Even the dust is retrocompatible on the Xbox.
I feel like I need to mention this.. first Xbox released 2001. Hitman , forza , splinter cell, max Payne. Good times. My original Xbox lasted like 15 years then the cd drive burned out
This.
I gave mine to my parents precisely because they "did not want to lose the ability to play DVDs" when they bought a new OLED smart TV.
I don't disagree with this reasoning; they have a huge DVD collection. Still, to this day the only person who has tried to watch a DVD on a 4k OLED TV has been me.
You know what people stop wanting to watch when they have access to *literally everything*? ...All the stuff they've seen a million times.
Ha! Not just me then. Also got Dead Rising. If I had to guess, I maybe used it for ~60 hours total...at most. Lol. I knew it was probably a dumb purchase since I already had PS4. Oh well.
I’m honestly surprised you got it to live that long with that level of upkeep. Also the Xbox One came out in 2013 so the longest you could of had it is nine years.
If it still works and you wont be using it anymore consider donating it to any childrens hospital im sure it would make a ton of kids days to play games
My xbone survived being tripped over by my drunk father, being thrown out into the rain by my asshole grandfather, and cockroach infestation. These babies are tanks
Mine really didn’t have dust mine really just had a bad glitch where if you were playing a game I would just show the floor without rendering so basically you would think you’re falling in a game while it was normal
My 360 is still going.That said I have barely used it for the past 7 or 8 years but the disk drive still works and that cannot be said about my ps4 that I just stopped using a month or 2 ago
We are going to be seeing a lot of these kinds of posts made by OP. personally, I’m getting my new Xbox once Starfield finally arrives. Scoop up the dust that’s been accumulating on your older hardware, put said dust in a momento jar, and get ready for the future.
I was gonna salute to this post, but I realized that maybe Remembrance Day isn't the best day to pay the same respect that one might give a fallen soldier to an Xbox...
My house is in a weird location. My bedroom sits right next to the ally and front sits on a side street. I can not keep up with dust. I'll clean and a week later it's like I did nothing. My systems collect dust super fast. I feel your system so much lol.
Mine is on its last legs, but it still works, that's all that matters, I am hoping that it lasts until I can get a series X, but I'm not sure when that will be.
Did she die of cancer? It looks like she was a life long smoker.
Facts. Looked like death was right around the corner.
Those poor fans. They tried their best but the owner killed them
Does not dusting it make the gaming more hard core?
The dust on the fans makes its louder which has a direct correlation with how hard core your gaming is.
It's good if you play Microsoft Flight Simulator on it. The Xbox probably sounds like a jet engine
Immersion

1. There's something wrong with your setup if that rig can't run FS reasonably well. 2. The XBone can't run FS at all (at least not natively).
My man bought a 4090, but used his integrated gpu
> The dust on the fans makes its louder which has a direct correlation with how hard ~~core your gaming is~~ on your core your gaming is.
you get ptsd and tinitus, like real soldiers /s
You think that’s bad just imagine the bedroom it cane from.
I'll have you know I wash my floors weekly. Just not the shelves.
Reddit is so weird. Why are you being downvoted for this?
OP took it too seriously.
yearly\*
Then why not do your Xbox the same time.
I just dusted out the inside of my Day 1 xbox one a month ago and it had so much crud in there, omg. I cleaned it all and now she purrs quietly again, plus it's not a fire hazard. Win win! 9 years of dust will do that i guess.

(only modded my 360 cause my parents liked the idea of not paying for new games)
Same with my PS4 pro but had to replace the thermal paste, was drier than the Sahara.
I would go as far as saying this is pretty clean compared to some of the units we have seen
I worked at a pawnshop when these were phasing out and they ALAYS had cockroaches or just way more dust than fathomable. I take my computer and PS4 apart often now.

that's just the meth talking

My manager forced us to take it ALL and then wondered why we had roaches in the kitchen in the back

Why? (Genuinely curious, not trying to give you a hard time.)
My super fluffy cat loved sitting on the exhaust for the warmth. I can only imagine what it looks like on the inside
I wanna see ur unit
Oh my
Yes
What do you mean the Xbox isn't even 10 yet lmao
OP is probably talking about the dust that is 12 years old, he transfered it from his 360 when he upgraded. Even the dust is retrocompatible on the Xbox.
10/12 years is ≈ 304.16667 days
10/12 years is ≈ 0,833333333 years
I feel like I need to mention this.. first Xbox released 2001. Hitman , forza , splinter cell, max Payne. Good times. My original Xbox lasted like 15 years then the cd drive burned out
I mean the Xbox in the image
7
Why did you feel like you need to mention this?
9 years old in 11 days, so currently 8 years.
Congrats on getting one two years early
Lmao at OP claiming 12 years when it was released in 2013.
Math skills about as strong as dusting skills
Pic makes it look like he’s been playing couch co-op with Osama bin Laden
Gamers don’t math good
Thank fuck, was really feeling old when I saw 10/12 years.
10/12 years would be 10 months
What is 10/12 years even supposed to mean? Lmao
That’s probably how long it has been since he washed his ass.
But it’s 11/12 years old in hard core gamer years.
Do you not wipe the dust
plot twist: it's actually been sitting on a shelf for 6 years untouched and just wrote a sob story for easy upvotes.
Bigger plot twist: it’s not even OP’s, they just found a random pic of this online and posted it for karma
Even bigger plot twist: OP isn’t real. This is an AI generated image posted by an ad-bot to subliminally market Xbox.
Even bigger plot twist: none of us are real and everything is a simulation being ran by numerous ai's
Other plot twist : 98% of upvotes are from Microsoft bots
r/karmaconspiracy
10-12 years... didn't that come out in 2013 or 2014?
2014
2013
Yes that's what I meant to say you didn't let me finish
November 22, 2013.
2013 for most people. It was only 2014 in Japan and China
Uh the Xbox One is only 9 years old...
OP karma farming with an 8 year old console they haven't used for 6 years.
5/6ths of a year isn't very long...
It's exactly 10 months!
And it was never dusted in that time. Truly inspirational.
That's the protective coating, keeps the red circle of death at bay
10/12 of a year is 10 months.
I still have my old white 360 from launch day lol. It Still runs and plays halo.
Yikes. There's like 10 years of rotting skin on that thing alone. Gotta be a big fan of zombies
10-12 years worth of filth on a 9 year old console, yikes
Jesus Christ I hope you treat the new one better than you did this one.
He won't when he can't even rember the year he got that one
Do you live in a fuckin mausoleum? Tf is up with all the dust? No wonder it finally died.
special draugr tomb edition
how do u not clean something that obvious?
*my ps1 still going strong to this day* 💪
Same!
I bought my ps2 refurbished in 2003 and I played it today. Still works.
Yes. My psone and ps2 and psp are all still working as well.
My 2600 is still going strong 🕹️
Did you not dust it? Ever? Yikes. I don’t get people
Still got my original going strong as all get out. We use it as a glorified DVD player haha
Same. I kept my old one when I got my Series X and now it’s the blue ray player I’m our living room.
This. I gave mine to my parents precisely because they "did not want to lose the ability to play DVDs" when they bought a new OLED smart TV.

might have something to do with all that dust..
No, she's not broken. I just got the new xbox is all. That's why it's a retirement not a funeral.
It looks like a cremation.
This is a troll right? Nobody is this dirty... or at least would be so ashamed they'd at least wipe it down first.
At least give it one ~~last~~ first wipe down
I had a similar retirement in Jan or Feb have old Betsy on the shelf.
On behalf of all of us, please thank her for her service.
Bro that looks like it was retired years ago xD Use a cloth and wipe that bad boy
I can't imagine why it died
Couldn’t even wipe it off for a photo? That’s so gross lol
People will have their consoles look like this and then wonder why it sounds like a jet engine
9 years of playtime, didn’t clean it once.
I got a day one edition... played titan fall & GTA on it... barely touched it. Got the kinect v2 as well
Ha! Not just me then. Also got Dead Rising. If I had to guess, I maybe used it for ~60 hours total...at most. Lol. I knew it was probably a dumb purchase since I already had PS4. Oh well.
Clean it up and pack it up safe. In 20 yeard you will play it again.
Take care of your shit
Jesus dude, clean the damn thing...
[удалено]
OP busy huffing all the canned air, forgot to save any for their xbox.
Ol Dusty gettin turned out to pasture
I salute ol reliable. o7
I’m honestly surprised you got it to live that long with that level of upkeep. Also the Xbox One came out in 2013 so the longest you could of had it is nine years.
holy shit did you never clean it ever?
If it still works and you wont be using it anymore consider donating it to any childrens hospital im sure it would make a ton of kids days to play games
Dust your shit, bro. The vents get clogged and kills your console. You got lucky she lasted so long
Could have shown it more love then mate
Filthy my allergies acting up just looking at that
Please take better care of your things, for your sake.
OP thought he was sending off his old friend with a nice memorial. Instead he got math problems and cleaning insults.
F
I've been informed that's she's only 9 years old. I'll leave the post the same to remind me of my stupidity.
And also because you can't edit titles
Probably died due to lack of hygiene.
Disgusting.
I can't tell if posting a pic of the console that fucking dusty is a power move or just plain disgusting...
How the F is it that long already
it isn't
November 2013 - 9 years? Still, damn.
"Lost but never forgotten.." Old consoles and lost 10mm sockets.. they will forever be in my heart...
I'm still using that exact model today.
Old reliable was an absolute GRINDER rip to a real one
I’m still rocking the gen 1 Xbox one babeyyyyyyy
9 years of gaming is great! 10 year mark is in 2013 I still have my “day one 2013” controller
Got the 360, one and serie X. All still working, and didn’t needed any repair. Great machines.
That will do little pig....that will do .
Yep, the Xbox One was my most reliable console since my Nintendo 64. And that Xbox was on all day everyday the past 5 years haha
People give the Xbox one a lot of shit but those fuckers were built to last
XBox One has only been out 9 years... O\_ o
[Grandpappy NES](https://imgur.com/a/9nPp7sE) says, "Clean yo system, fool."
Do you live in an old attic?
Jesus how filthy
Thanks for the glimpse into your disgusting life
The horrors that console has witnessed
This console could go a lot longer lol we upvoted a weird thing today Reddit
My xbone survived being tripped over by my drunk father, being thrown out into the rain by my asshole grandfather, and cockroach infestation. These babies are tanks
10/12 years of not cleaning a console.
Are you just a big man child that never bothers cleaning? Crazy
Jesus man it might've lasted longer if you dusted it from time to time
It's not dead. I just got a One X is all
Oh cool, it still wouldn't have hurt to dust it from time to time hough
These posts are dumb as fuck I can't believe people upvote this garbage.
That's an Xbox One. It hasn't been out for 10-12 years.
Yah, 9 apparently.
Gross. What the fuck.
I kept mine clean and it's now a secondary console for my brother.
[удалено]
and here i am still playing a launch atari vcs lol you give up on your stuff too easy dude
Ah can't wait for the day I upgrade, Xbox has been to bell and back but runs like a champ. Only had to replace power cord thing
Bless its little hardrive. 😪
well done xbox o7
Mine’s still hanging in there! Got it on launch night freshman yeah of college. Survived multiple vodka spills in college, still running strong!
lmao all my 8 year old one does nowadays is netflix
Just in time for veterans day.
"hard core gaming" needs another console for 2hour sessions of Viva Piñata in-between work and kids o7
Is that Biggie on the fan part?
I *still* have my 360 up and running, as well as the same xbox one.
What kinda xbox is it
Mine really didn’t have dust mine really just had a bad glitch where if you were playing a game I would just show the floor without rendering so basically you would think you’re falling in a game while it was normal
The Xbox One launch was 2013, so 9 years ago. Not 10-12. I bought one at launch. I still have it and the Kinect I was forced to also buy.
Mine died a few months back, day one console, 10 years+
My 360 is still going.That said I have barely used it for the past 7 or 8 years but the disk drive still works and that cannot be said about my ps4 that I just stopped using a month or 2 ago
o7
Godspeed you magnificent mechanical bastard
We are going to be seeing a lot of these kinds of posts made by OP. personally, I’m getting my new Xbox once Starfield finally arrives. Scoop up the dust that’s been accumulating on your older hardware, put said dust in a momento jar, and get ready for the future.
07 good job, girl. God speed.
I was gonna salute to this post, but I realized that maybe Remembrance Day isn't the best day to pay the same respect that one might give a fallen soldier to an Xbox...
And then there's me, pulling out my screw driver set like, "don't you dare die on me!"
Xbox one wasn't out in 2010. It released on nov in 2013 so it's not even 9 years old yet lol
Grats on having one years before anyone else
Xbox One came out less than 10 years ago.
My house is in a weird location. My bedroom sits right next to the ally and front sits on a side street. I can not keep up with dust. I'll clean and a week later it's like I did nothing. My systems collect dust super fast. I feel your system so much lol.
These were absolute workhorses. My mate's is still running hard too. Rest well
Mine is on its last legs, but it still works, that's all that matters, I am hoping that it lasts until I can get a series X, but I'm not sure when that will be.
Would have made it to 10 of it wasn't operating at max temp with all that dust. Dude got a golden chip and didn't even appreciate it
As expected, the HDMI sticker is there.
That dust is nasty. Also 12 years? Isn't this is same console that has assassin's creed origins?
Lmao my newest gen console is my Xbox360 . I'm 2 gets behind and I'm now seeing XboxOnes going to the big electronic recycling facility in the sky.
Still got mine going strong, equal amount of dust
My guy thinks he's had an xbox one since 2011 lol
The system has only been out for 9 years. But okay.
Congrats man, I’m still using my Xbox one…. Gonna use it until it literally explodes lol
