Closer inspection reveals many changes to the new Xbox Series X's internals, with the most notable changes being: Smaller 6nm chips– The slightly shrunken SoC improves power efficiency by at least 10W while idle and up to 16W while gaming. The motherboard has also been reengineered. And the vapor chamber cooling system has been ditched for a more conventional copper heat pipe design.
