Hey Everyone. Not had the time to actually test this theory but…i kept getting major slow downs in Flightsim after about an hour. So it got me wondering if my xbox was thermal throttling. So i watched some video on cleaning an Xbox Series X and opened it up. From the outside it didnt look dirty but i found that the heatsink was totally clogged with dust, i mean completely. There is no way the cooling can have been working. I consider us clean living people , however these little machines can be vacume cleaners it seems. Its a few years old. Anyway just a consideration for you, its easy to clean out.
So did you notice a difference afterwards?

Hi,
Sorry i didnt do any testing afterwards. I had mentally given up on Flightsim on Xbox, mostly because of the slow sim rate problem and lack of Aircraft addons.
I am fortunate enough to afford a new PC. I built an AMD7800X3D with Nvidia 4070 Super.
Flightsim runs like a dream at 4k Ultra settings. Its a totally different experience. However its also a totally different cost!!
