G-STORY Cooling Fan for Xbox Series X, Auto 3 Speed Adjust Temp Display RGB

This is the one. I’ve had many of these types of fans but this one so far has performed well above my expectations. I like that it gives you an accurate temperature read, I can confirm it is accurate as I tested with a thermometer. The fan is strong, and some level of noise does come with the territory but I’m not bothered by it. I have a very small room and my Xbox started overheating not long ago. I live in New England and would normally require heat in the winter but my Xbox was running so hot (Thank you Baldur’s Gate 3) that my entire bedroom was warm enough that I was actually opening the window at times. When the fan arrived I’d been gaming for 3-4 hours and was curious to see what the temperature was, as like I said my Xbox was essentially heating my entire room for me. The first temperature read was a whopping 112* F - I can’t believe I’ve been abusing my Xbox this way! I installed the fan right away and started a timer. Within 10 minutes the temperature dropped down to 86* and after 20 minutes we were down to a comfortable temperature down in the high 70’s. 30 degrees cooler in 20 minutes - Impressive isnt the word. I was outright giddy! I will also add, that I have a charging base already with a fan the cools from bottom up. That model cost me just over $60, however it clearly doesn’t work that well if my console is running 112* even while running it full speed. I was sure the cooling dock would be great since it screws into the wall giving the vents underneath the Xbox room to breathe but it really hasn’t done much. At double the price of this fan I have to say I wish I’d just purchased this one first! There is a huge difference between the two, I noticed right away that this fan was blowing my hair while the other one doesn’t do much at all. This one does make a bit more noise, but as someone who uses the Xbox virtually every single day for 8+ hours, I’d much rather opt for function over noise level. I was pleased that this fan came with dust covers, I have cats and it gets really dusty, I’m fairly neurotic about maintaining the Xbox so needless to say I’m constantly cleaning and dusting it. I don’t know that it works as well with the dust plate on top while running the Xbox, so I think I’ll just use it when the fan isn’t running. The other dust covers though, I installed right away. My one and probably only qualm with this cooling fan was the dust plug covers. They came molded on a single sheet of rubber so you have to cut them yourself. The process was torture for me, as nothing less than perfect was going to be acceptable for my Autistic mind. Nevertheless I did fairly well cutting them out, I just wish I hadn’t needed to do all that. I would’ve preferred they come as separate pieces. Small complaint though. I highly recommend this product. It does what it promises and at a very affordable price.

I got a series X (barely) used from a friend and was kinda shocked how warm my room got when playing. I had a cooling fan for my series S and wanted one for this. Read some reviews and websites and settled on this one. SO GLAD I DID. The temp reader is accurate and when I plugged it in after playing CFB25 for about an hour it was reading at 114°F! After 26 minutes the temp dropped all the way to 90°F where it stays when under load/gaming. That's incredible IMO and I'm very happy. I'm pairing this with another backplate cooling fan that shows up tomorrow so I can see if I can get the temps down closer to 80°F. If I can drop the temp 35°F for $50 I will say that it is money well spent without a doubt. Even just using this fan, I'm more than pleased and it is an absolute necessity. If you're thinking of getting a fan, get this one. You will not be disappointed. Afterthought: Tons of reviews on here say it's loud when on the fastest speed, but it's not. And if you have headphones on or even just a little volume on the TV or monitor while gaming, you will not hear it at all. I sit 3ft from it and cannot hear it at all while gaming. I'm a laptop gamer (due to work travel 3 weeks a month) and this is silent compared to laptop cooling. It's even quieter than my fan for my old series S and works 5 times better. My only "complaint" is that it stays running unless you unplug it entirely. Not that it's an issue, just annoying that it doesn't have a sleep or off setting. Not a huge enough issue that it deserves a star rating drop as the pros far outweigh the cons It has an auto function where it increases fan speed as temps rise or manual mode with three settings of slow, medium, fast. I keep it on fast at all times. I keep the RGB off entirely, never been a big bright light person. Photos are: 74°F while in menu, 90°F after 15 minutes playing PGA Tour 2K23 (it stays here no matter how long I play. Sometimes gets to 91° but will fluctuate between 90° & 91° every ten minutes or so).

I read tons of reviews before I purchased this top mounted cooling fan for my Xbox Series X. I was worried about the noise, possible clicking of the fan in the unit, the fan itself melting, etc. from all of the reviews I read. So far, I have had no issues with any of that. Understandably, I do not use my unit daily and do house upon hours of heavy gaming like I once did. But, after a 4 hour marathon of gaming the 1st night I got it, I never once had the temperature rise high enough on the unit for it to kick automatically into high speed (red LED colored). The unit has done exactly what it says it does, kicks on at different speeds at the temperature rises on the unit during usage. It can be switched easily to manual mode if wanted. It is not noisy at all and was a perfect fit and install took less than 10 seconds. My ONLY complaint is that the manufactured holes at the top of the fan are not cut out at the same specs as the Xbox. What this means in layman terms, is that the aftermarket brackets I purchased to hang my headset on the side of the unit to charge them no longer fits in the vent holes on the top of the unit. Small price to pay I guess. I'd rather keep my unit cool and have peace of mind of it not overheating and damaging the internal components then to be able to hang my headset so I can charge it via my USB port on the front of the unit. All in all, I would 100% recommend this device to another shopper who wants to keep their Series X cool during usage.

We bought this for our living room because we got a new entertainment center and noticed the Series X would get really hot. We tried adjusting the shelves but the fan was working overtime. This installed very easily and we could tell it worked right away. It has a nice temperature readout and a led changes colors based on the temperature, which you can turn off. Our Xbox is the entertainment workhorse for our living room so we wanted to make sure it lasted. Had this for a few months now and no issues. The fam can get noisy on the higher temperatures but not so much it is distracting and in my opinion less noisy than the Xbox fan.

I didn't realize how bad I needed this! I got a fan when the available accessories were limited & that thing kinda sucks. The automatic fan is awesome & seeing the temperature spike on the display is very helpful! Then I know to turn on the fan at the base and remove the dust cover - it does a great job cooling my Xbox! Update: it's still getting the job done well & the manual mode has been an unexpectedly effective option for longer gaming sessions; Auto just cannot keep my Xbox series x below 95° for an extended period of time - not a complaint at all! The extra noise isn't even picked up by my headset mic with the noise gate set appropriately.

I've have bought 3 of these so far (1 for me and 2 for gifts) grate unit that keeps temps around 110 while gaining in auto mode and speed 1, very really did it jump to speed 2 and if it did it was briefly. I like the fact the fan stays spinning even after the Xbox is off witch helps in reducing heat soak and once cool the fan turns off, only thing that I don't like is the constant temp is always on but that's a small price to pay for a cooler Xbox without heat soak. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND NOT TO USE THE DUST GRILL STICKERS AS THOSE WITH CAUSE A AIR FLOW RESTRICTION WHICH WILL CAUSE IT TO HEAT UP FASTER AS THERE WILL BE LESS AIR FLOW FROM THE RESTRICTIONS. just dust of the Xbox as maintenance ever so often, no need to open it unless it's really bad inside

I got this product based off of reviews. Set it up and it worked as intended. Awesome lights (green, blue, red), powerful fan that does it's job and a bright, noticable display......These are some pro's. For the cons.... USB cord for fan is too short. Fan can be a little loud on high (from what I noticed). One major gripe with this fan is that it generates a lot power plugged into the back of the Xbox. I've tested that the Xbox works harder, and even depending on what game you're playing, it'll make your games laggy due to the power it generates. I play on a Series X and typically run on 20 ping, so I don't have issues with that. Once I disconnect it from the back, my games work perfectly fine. Now I have that in a USB adapter and plug that into a USB brick then in an outlet. Seems like a lot? Yes lol. However, this has fixed issues that I was having before. Now I am loving this fan! Also the silicone insters they give you work really well and fitment is perfect. I don't use the mesh coverings for the back of the Xbox but I do use the cover for the top of the fan when I am not using it. I recommend this product overall!!!!

It works well so far after a week, easy to install and stops my xbox from overheating on the blue and red mode. Green mode is kinda useless

Buen producto lo tengo en modo automático y ayuda a mantener temperaturas bajas durante el funcionamiento de la consola, ayuda a bajar la temperatura de entre 5 a 7 grados con juegos demandantes y mantien temperaturas estables. Dato: veo que a muchos les parece grados Farenheit y no Celsius, pero para cambiarlo a Celsius desconecten el ventilador y al momento de volverlo a conectar dejen precionado el botón y al momento de conectar ya les aparecerá grados Celsius, de nada 👊🏻 ✌🏻

That is really working very well

It attaches easily and looks good while doing a great job. very happy.

I really like this fan set up, It works great and really cools the machine down quick. I also really like the auto and manual modes as well however it’s a little on the loud side but not too loud, especially on low. Also, the thermometer seems to be pretty accurate too for the most part. I would definitely recommend this unit for anyone looking to keep their machine cool. Also, this is an exhaust fan so it won’t affect stock fan motor or fan speed. Just simply pulls the heat out of the machine. Cheers

I had heard lot about this product...was searching for India review but unfortunately couldnt get any....so was bit skeptical...but thought to give a try...it is really amazing...as soon as temperature raises beyond 95F the fan gets activated & immediately starts to cool down xbox...Very happy as of now and hope it lasts for longer..Its for sure that this fan will definitely extend life of my xbox...Will definitely recommend to xboxx owners
