Xbox setup for MAX performance! 

So this is my first Xbox ever. I’ve had a PlayStation 1-PS5. Don’t get me wrong I love my PS5 but I can say I’ve pretty much have only played those exclusives from it and I got crazy in my Xbox. Like I was such a Xbox hater cause if the “console wars” but my friend convinced me to get one and I’d say I use the Xbox way more then my PlayStation. I’m a huge fan of the Xbox. I got it in early 2021 and I have gone ham with it. I’m so shocked how good game pass is and how powerful the Xbox is. I also hated Microsoft but I respect them more now cause how good Xbox is. I feel like I’ve been missing.

Yo i got the xbox series x for Christmas guys.

I just got Xbox series x today upgrading from a 360 to an Xbox one to an Xbox one s and now it’s time for the ultimate one I’m really happy and these videos are really helpful since this new console is an entire new device from specs to its amazing exclusive games

3:45 you can actually transfer X|S optimised games to external storage but you can only play a handful of them (Such as Trailmakers which was originally on Xbox One) and the rest you have to transfer back to internal storage to play.

Thanks for this video! I upgraded recently from Xbox One S to a Series X, I'm absolutely loving it! I recommend Xbox All Access which includes the console and Game Pass Ultimate, not many people know about it, but it really is THE best value in gaming!

“Max performance” and half of video he speak about customization and other obvious things. Unsub🤦🏻‍♂️

THIS IS CRAZY CAUSE IM GETTING MY SERIES S TODAY!! SO I KNOW HOW TO SET IT UP!

I just came to the series x from the ps5 just to try something different and I love it. It could be just me, but I could swear elder scrolls online looks better on the series x

I just got my series X from Amazon and finally I can see enemies on Pubg the anti aliasing looks good now. Love this device ❤

My 2016 Xbox One S is dying. Struggling to render, crashing, stuttering and fps drop. I couldnt justify spending $500 on myself for the Series X... but my wife got me one! Its such a huge leap in performance. Im so happy, ive always been stuck on old gen. 😂 Playing on the X is the best and so fast at everything it does.

Nice tips for beginners.....Welcome to ALL the new Xbox owners, Enjoy !! I picked-up a Seagate 2Tb Expansion Card for my Series-X in the Post Xmas Sales for £349.....That's the cheapest I've seen the new 2Tb card, so-far, so I thought I'd just get it, as I've spent the last 2yrs transferring games from my External HDD to my Internal SSD and back again (Many Times Over & Over) it doesn't actually take too long to transfer BUT now I can just play my games when I want without having to think ahead and move the games I want to play before I play.....Much better !! BUT.....£349 is still too expensive for it imo, hopefully they'll reduce them so everyone can enjoy them soon !?!? EDIT:- Sorted Spelling !!

I bought a series x for myself, cant wait for the 2023 games. I own every xbox since the very first console, which i sold my almost brand new PS2 to buy, and never looked back since.

i just got my series s yesterday and im ready to use these

You can put xs games on the external , you just can't play them. So if you don't play it but don't want to download it again, just store it on the external and then switch it back if you want to play it. I have a SSD external , the official slot in SSD which you can play and the 500gb on the system. I've got so many games. But you can always use the cloud if you're Internet is up to standard

You can store the X/S games on the external hdd, you just can't play them from the hdd. You'd have to move it over to the internal storage to play.

Highly recommend Duracell rechargeable, 2500mAh AA's and fast charger.

I got bored of playing MW2, so I decided to reinstall Black Ops Cold War from 2020, and that game is a WHOPPING 240+ GB. Unbelievable!!

Such a chill vibe from this guy - love it. Like the down to earth energy. Thank you for all these tips.

I got an Xbox series X and I am glad I got it no buyers remorse at all. I love it got gamepass on it. I started following this page for up to date Xbox news. Big things coming for Microsoft and Xbox.

Just got mine yesterday for 350 before tax but then I also work at Walmart and they give you 25% off around this time of year so I think I got one for a great price

Thanks bro just got a series x last week but been a long time Xbox fan setup was simple

Hi mate. Cool guide but you did make a rather critical error in that you can copy any game you like to an external portable drive to save on space such as any X/S games as well. It is just that you would need to copy them back to either internal or storage expansion drive in order to play them. However there are still some updated games that will still run from external too so best to experiment in that regard. I do this all the time to save space and have two game drives attached with a total of 9TB extra storage.

Have my series X still from day one release and still loving it!

2022 was a good year for Headsets updates for Microsoft. Unfortunately before then Microsoft wasn't taking advantage of built in software from headset manufacturers for xbox. We were unable to take advantage of common features that pc had for years; such as noise filtering and automute. These features were enabled last year with an update most people didn't realize it had happened. The particular headset he reviewed in the video gained these features once automute is turned on fans, ac, most background noise will not come across Mic anymore. Your TV if left on won't come across chat unless really loud even then only when you speak, and it does an overall great job of cleaning up the party chat for friends so their experience with you is vastly improved. These features only show up if your headset supports them on xbox. I suggest if it states it supports it and doesn't have option under device and accessories then headset place a support ticket asking them to enable the software for your device.

Im glad I got the seagate 2tb drive. Can definitely play games that are on it regardless of being x|s versions.

I would suggest the Charge amd play from Microsoft it works really welland if you have a longer ought cord or are close to a outlet you can charge while playing or if you don't want to use batteries ypu can use the controller plugged directly to the wall

Xbox is alive 😎

I just got my xbox series x a few days ago and I’m looking for some video like this

I went from xbox 360 to playstation 4 then my parents got a xbox series x

The "you can't put games that are optimized for series S/X on an external HDD" thing is just false, you can put them on any HDD, you just can't start them from there.

I have had the same xbox gamertag since the original xbox

I own XSX and PS5 and must admit I use and love the XSX more, game pass is amazing and it just feels better. The XBOX was always the more adult console. But Astro on PS5 with the dual sense is insane, XBOX needs to include those triggers in the future.

Thanks bud , I am new to Xbox series X . I'll take all the help i can get.

I appreciate your honest opinion about things. As impressive as all these features are the only things I want to do I can't, which is to back up game saves to usb and get rid of all the advertisements and crap on the home screen.

Razer kaira pro with Elite series 2 are my options. I am on 2nd elite in year. Warranty replacement was fast though only lil less than 2 week. But I love it, wouldn’t go back to standard controller. And kaira pro has multi connectivity function.

I been with the Xbox brand since the first Xbox came out

The black Eneloop rechargeable batteries are the best quality rechargeables on the market right now, made by Panasonic. Im kind of a battery nut, take my word for it.

Wireless steel series headset is a good option

Flashdrives are another good storage option. Once formatted you can play older games straight off the flashdrive. Personally I've used the Sandisk Ultra Fit for many of of my consoles. Like the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox One X ect. From experience it plays the older games perfectly fine off the drive. Any flashdrive will work as long as its 256GB or more. But I like the Ultra Fit because of it's small form factor. Also unlike Playstation. With Xbox consoles your able to have multiple storage devices. So using the 2 back USB ports. You could get 2 512GB Ultra Fits = 1TB of storage for older game. Plus still have room for the 2TB SSD expansion for newer games. The benefits of doing that is unlike an external HDD or SSD. The small form factor flashdrives don't stick out of your console. So you won't even know they are there.

You can put series x s games on normal hdd, you just can't play them from it, but you can store them on hdd, just have to move it to your new system when you want to play.

Tubman Brand AA batteries are also a solid brand. They are rechargeable as well.

Just Baught Xbox X Yesterday,,My Old Xbox 1 X Burnt Up Fonally

I already have a xbox account with my Xbox one , so when I upgrade to the Xbox series x console I shouldn't need to redo my gamer profile or previous purchased digital games .. correct ??

My neighbor his wife bought him the series x for Christmas, he is upgrading from the 360 to the series x and says he is annoyed at how the disc are pointless now, especially since he doesn't have good wifi, and called me over to see why he can't play vanguard even though his wife bought him the disc, well when I got there it was downloading the disc and it only had 1.92 GB of data on it and the rest u had to download over the internet the size of which was like 76 GB, she had also bought a digital copy of MW2 which again was like 80 GB So we ended up talking about assassins creed somehow or another and I let him borrow a few of those games for the 360 and one

I ordered a 12TB external hard drive for my Xbox series X off eBay for $159.99 shipping.

I agree i rly bonded with my elite 2 controller to. I bought 2 of them alrdy and probably by a new one in the next couple months

I just bought myself a new Xbox series x from the Xbox one x and I have a 5tb external hard drive that I’ve had for years and when I plugged it into my new series x I didn’t have to format it to the new one it just asked me if it was gonna be used on more then one Xbox and I clicked yes and it started uploading all my games… you only have to format a NEW external hard drive

Minor nitpick, the expansion card is actually just an external enclosure for a m.2 drive. There's no proprietary hardware, but one of the IC's does have proprietary software on it. It's still a big disappointment though :(

Im a huge advocate of gamepass. Even if you dont own an xbox... the sheer amount of windows games you get is insane and even xbox only games can be streamed to windows. Literally pair an xbox controller to windows 10/11 and your set. Between gamepass and steam, you really dont need anything else ever.

Hay if your upgrading you can download games you paid for to your hdd that say x/s from the one x to series x/s and then it will automatically update the game for the new series x/s, i hope that makes sence

OMG! I setup my account, personalized my profile and subscribed to Game Pass and my fps suddenly went thru the roof. MAX performance!

I got a series s recently but im trying to set it up run perfectly

Some XS games can be ran from an external HDD or SSD. I figure some don't have to pass a high speed test. So far I found star wars squadrons and mass effect legendary edition can be ran externally and without issues.

Listen I have a xbox series s and I have the LG24650B monitor and it is amazing xbox series s is a must have especially if you get a 1080p monitor. You really can't tell the difference between the x and the s. The s is native 1080p and paired with the proper monitor its a steal.

2 years owning with benq 3000i beamer.. love it

Some solid AA batteries to use for controllers (and even use in other devices that you use alot that require AA) are the rechargeable batteries that have a USB-C port built-in directly on the physical AA batteries, and they charge extremely quickly and last for a very long time since they are 2000mah EACH AA battery, so all those Xbox rechargeable battery packs are usually like 1200mah total, but these rechargeable AA batteries are 2000mah each so that's 4000mah using 2 AA batteries (which is a little more than 3 times the size of all of those expensive rechargeable battery packs). And these AA batteries even come with a special USB-C cable to recharge 4 at the same time...and of course other positive features are you never have to worry about battery acid leaking from these types of batteries as that only happens with non-recharchable AA batteries. And I even got over 1 month of gaming time using 2 of the 4 rechargeable AA batteries while gaming about 4-8 hours a day, before having to recharge them again or swap them out for the other 2 batteries, which only take about an hour to charge. And you don't have to worry about keeping up with some special rechargeable battery dock, or charger since you can just use one of the many USB-C cables that most things use these days and plug them in your phone or wireless headset USB-C rechargeable cable directly in the side of the physical AA batteries which is extremely convenient. Also, for anyone who thinks the Xbox Seagate external SSD that plugs into the specific port made for this tiny little SSD is expensive....check on eBay. There are lots of legitimate stores that have hundreds of thousands of transactions or even millions with a 100% customer rating...which is kind of impressive especially if they have sold several hundred thousand items. I got my Brand new unopened Microsoft Xbox Seagate 2TB NVMe SSD for $240. (Which just for a price comparison, ever since the Series S and X came out just the 1TB version of these drives were $219...and then I think later on Microsoft even released a Seagate 512GB External SSD for like $150 which is a waste of money since by the time you go to use it you'll only be able to use about 450GB of the storage after formatting it when you can just spend $50 more bucks for the 1TB version. Also, you can even make your own by buying a Microsoft Surface replacement M.2 SSD and then buying the exact same enclosure that Microsoft (or Seagate) uses for these external SSD drives on Amazon for like $10 max. (So I bought my first external 2TB SSD from Seagate on eBay, and then looked inside to see what kind of SSD drive they use and then was curious if I could just make my own and sure enough I found a 1TB Microsoft Surface replacement SSD Which is like a small mini version of the 2280 NVMe SSD drives you use in your gaming PC. And then put it in the $10 Aluminum Amazon SSD enclosure that is almost identical to the one Seagate uses and it recognized it the second I plugged it in my Series X, and then asked me if I wanted to format it and it installed everything it needed to work and all together cost about $100 for the lightning fast "proprietary" SSD. (But I wouldn't recommend doing that unless you are a computer and tech savvy person as there are many different kinds and sizes of M.2 SSD)

Yeah I feel for you dude it sounds like you are saying that the Xbox series X can’t put Xbox series X games on an external drive and that’s a shame PlayStation can do it you just again you just can’t play them there but you can store them there if you’re running out of space and you haven’t don’t wanna upgrade you can store them there which by the way I wouldn’t spend money upgrading a Xbox series X right now because in a few monthsyou’re gonna wanna buy the 2 TB refresh anyway then if you have upgraded and it’s still not enough if you’re gonna get 2 TB plus whatever card you have when you move it over to the new machine

I got my Xbox series s one week ago and I love it!

I have my sx for 4 months don't know why I'm watching this

I just wanted to mention you can store games from the series X&S on an external non-solid state hard drive. You just can't play them, but you can store them if you need to make room on your internal hard drive. you don't have to uninstall it, I do this with a lot of my games I store them on other hard drives until I need to play them. And some Xbox One games run better on the SSD like fallout 76 the frame rate boost on that game is unbelievable and it never crashes or very rarely. Slime rancher runs better on the series S. I actually got to see a side-by-side comparison as me and my son were playing he was playing on the Xbox One I was playing on my series X and my frame rate was so much better while his stuttered.

Also you can put X/S games on there. Some will even play off of it. But some make you use internal. Not trying to be rude I’ve been using a sea gate for a year and half and have run X/S games for a while and it works just fine.

Im getting my first Xbox ever and im so hyped

I just wanna say you can put X/S games on an external drive they just cannot be played while on the external they have to be moved to the SSD

I’ve had my Xbox series X for about a Year and a half almost 2, whenever I play Madden or NBA 2k my console randomly shuts off I don’t know what the problem is does this happen to anyone else?

I would like to have a Far Cry 6 Xbox Series X.

ONE THING THATS WRONG IS NO..NOT EVERYTHING IS TIED...I TRIED TO SIGN INTO ROBLOX THROUGH THE XBOX APP..AND IT SAID I PUT THE WRONG PASSWORD IN...AND I KNOW IT WAS MY XBOX PASSWORD ...

How do I get my sims 4 and pets pack that’s on my Xbox series x to work on my series s . I can play sims 4 but the pets expansion pack is missing I have the disk version on my Xbox series x

This is like the basic things you should do with any modern gaming device or PC. Do people really just "Plug & Play" ?? No wonder people think Xbox Series S looks trash when people dont even know how to calibrate HDR properly. SMH. Kids.. AND ADULTS these days. So helpless without youtube.. or TikTok. Just stupid.

Thank you for important information and Happy New year .

Good video ,my only problem with the Series X is when you are trying to use an external hdd for video clips and screen shots it doesn't let you through the console, you have to plug it into a pc to extract your media which to me is super inconvenient. Why can't you do it right from the console?

how can you bust your wifi on your xbox one s

4:55 is where PlayStation 5 is a BullPoop till 14th March 2024

Love your content bro keep it up

The home Xbox button. Don't touch it. The home Xbox is for game sharing

3.20 waist off time.

Great content man

They have to put an external disc drive for the Xbox series s. Sony is going to discontinue their ps5 disc version and making a external disc drive. If Microsoft doesn’t make it then more people will buy ps5

You know what I still missing... Backwards compatible saves... Like Naruto Storm( all versions), (Super)Street fighter 4 (Ultra), GOW and more. You can see all achievement required on 360 for example, but on One still nothing... That's completely lame... Need 2 play the hole story and everything to get all extra.. What's up with THAT'LL

12/16/23 Is there a way I can connect my Xbox 360 steering wheel to my Xbox 1 and also on a Xbox X/S?

The problem I’ve been having is that I’ve had a day one Series X this whole time, and still can’t find a decently priced 2.1 HDMI 4K 120hz monitor. Great video though!

Bro u didn't do any performance enhancements. What a joke.....

Bro has a 2.3 Gbps download speed

I finally got the series x I have the s as well but use the series x daily s is more for are room for Netflix and sometimes late night gaming lol

Dude, how to stream RU-vid from xbox

I've had hukkerz as my tag since 360 came out

You can put series x/s games on an hard drive you just can't play them from the hard drive

I just got a Backbone One and I'm using Game Pass as the primary source for games. Granted I'm on an android but what would be the best games on Game Pass to try out?

It’s Xbox’in time

What the hell? Just got my series x today and this pops up… I guess I gotta thank my fbi guy for helping me out😂

January 3rd Xbox activision pretrial begins news source Reuters

Are western digital drives any good for Xbox gaming?

How many times does he spam the transcript with the word “Xbox”

Hey what headphones do you recommend a person to get???

2gb per second download is crazy

my god how many times did you fit in XBOX in one sentance🥩🥩🥩

I have a question, if you even see this, I had a series s for a year and half and the controller response was great and I just got an X the other day and the input lag it way worse not horrible but noticeable difference

Interesting because PlayStation you can transfer anything onto the Drive you just can’t play optimize games if it was made for the PS five you can’t play it from that drive, but you can store it there like if you just are running out of storage and you gotta get one more game on you can transfer some stuff off make room and download that game and install it and then you just move shit around whenever you need to. It happens almost instantaneously, because you know the hardware of the proprietary hardware in the PlayStation is fast as fuck, which is the reason PlayStation still beats Xbox and almost every matchup for video in graphics capabilities when they’re trying to show which one faster at doing stuff still wins even though it has a lesser graphical processor because it has a faster, bus faster memory faster, SSD in any case that’s interesting to find out you would think that you’d be able to store Xbox series X games on the drive, but not play them from the drive. Why wouldn’t you be able to move them there to maybe I misunderstood you? I might’ve misunderstood because you’re going from an Xbox one to series I think so maybe I misunderstood in any case Just download the game and install it. I mean Jesus Christ and download the game off my Internet and time and takes me to go take a piss or fill a drink or something I come back in the game downloaded and if it’s a big game or really really big game I can start the download and go to bed and it’ll be installed and ready to go the next daywhen I get up why why fuck around with all that first all if you don’t have that external drive then what are you do you still got it download and install it again

This isn't a very good video based on the discription. You barley talked about improving the preformance and more about the xbox features.

1% video 99% yapping

This guys video is wrong regarding external storage you can transfer series x and s games to store just can play them on also what he doesn't say with expansion card you can play x and s games off it
