#

eternal seal But which Xbox x?

eternal seal Oct 4, 2024, 4:18 PM

#

Dude, which one??

#

Series X?

topaz flint Oct 4, 2024, 4:18 PM

#

Series X

eternal seal Oct 4, 2024, 4:18 PM

#

Or the One X

#

Yeah so either or should work

#

I recommend HDMI 4 tho

topaz flint Oct 4, 2024, 4:19 PM

#

Oh ok. I’ll use hdmi 4

I do have another question I’ve been searching for but none fit my situation.

#

@eternal seal

I have a extension lead and I have had for years. Would this cause fps drops and stuttering. I have to use gaming refresh rate for the stuttering to stop but sometimes playing games don’t feel so smooth

eternal seal Oct 4, 2024, 4:21 PM

#

No

#

Extension lead wouldn’t do anything

topaz flint Oct 4, 2024, 4:23 PM

#

I have a 2k tv and it shouldn’t be losing fps so easily

#

When I searched up. Peoples are saying to use the Xbox in a outlet because in a cord it loses performance

#

What

#

What game is it?

topaz flint Oct 4, 2024, 4:28 PM

#

I play rocket league. Game performance is always slow. Play on my bros who is plugged in a outlet feels so smooth but on mine which is plugged in a years old extension lead feels slow
Fornite fps can drop to 110 and back to 120
Ark ascended will always drop to 40 back to 120 then straight to 40 again and can crash several times

#

Uhhh, try reset your console

#

It won’t be the extension lead unless it’s like 30 years old

#

Try it with “outlet” then see if it improves

topaz flint Oct 4, 2024, 4:31 PM

#

Tbf this is an extension lead that was also used for other things before I used this for gaming

#

Doesn’t change anything, is it fused?

topaz flint Oct 4, 2024, 4:33 PM

#

Fused?

eternal seal Oct 4, 2024, 4:34 PM

#

Yes

topaz flint Oct 4, 2024, 4:35 PM

#

Think so

eternal seal Oct 4, 2024, 4:36 PM

#

Then it should be fine
