Building The
Ultimate Xbox One X #Helpful Post
hey
guys this is austin and welcome to
the
ultimate xbox one x now this has
been
a very highly requested video so
much
so in fact that we got an anonymous
letter
from hongkong and giving us some
suggestions
to include for the video so
with
some of those in mind let's get to
building
Nick Cage approves yeah so
everyone's
probably familiar with the
wonderful
look of the Xbox one x aka
it's
just a black box which is where
this
comes in this is going to be a scam
which
is going to make our Xbox 1x look
a
lot like an original Xbox which some
say
it looks like an Xbox one so in the
picture
they've got like the front of it
like
it's got like the Xbox logo and
stuff
but this is just a top skin
clearly
wouldn't happen if this was deep
branch
it's actually pretty much lined
up
I'm slightly off center so you put it
side-by-side
with the original Xbox it
actually
doesn't look so bad I mean no I
wasn't
a hundred percent precise but I
think
it's close enough that uh I'll buy
that
next up because we know just how
useful
cooling fans and extra
attachments
are for consoles we have
Natalie
and intelligent cooling fan but
we
also have a cooling dock with extra
USB
ports so we've got three small
cooling
fans it's going to plug in via a
USB
and to be fair it does give us a USB
pass-through
so I guess it just snaps on
something
like this I mean that she does
kind
of blend in whether this is going
to
make any difference at all I am
incredibly
doubtful of but luckily we
have
a whole other cooling dock to keep
it
even cooler for whatever it is that
we're
doing on the next box which is
gonna
make it overheat making it extra
it's
pretty easy so we just do that wait
a
minute so I see that there's a fan but
where
is it pulling air from there's no
place
for it to pull on the bottom on
the
front on the sides why are the three
fans
if they have no intake or exhaust
what
this does give us is three more USB
ports
up front one of the things we're
going
to have to keep in mind with this
video
though is that we have a lot of
things
they're going to be requiring USB
so
making sure that we have full USB 3.0
on
as many force as possible is going to
be
a challenge because a mere one
terabyte
of storage space is not going
to
be anywhere near enough the next step
is
yet another
add
on hub thing this is going to give
us
not only the ability to plug in a
full
3.5 inch hard drive we're also
going
to be getting even more USB ports
oh
joy
that's
pretty cool so it's actually got
a
Scorpio on the front which would make
sense
because this is a Scorpio version
of
the console that now has a skin
covering
all that up so people still
know
we're cool so the idea here if it's
anything
like some of the previous hubs
we
used is that we'll be able to now I
plug
in that three and a half inch drive
this
is going to give us three more USB
3.0
ports on the front now with a three
and
a half inch drive bay we can go
completely
crazy and plug basically any
kind
of desktop hard drive in here but
as
opposed to doing a standard hard
drive
instead we have a two terabyte
Seagate
Fire CUDA and this is going to
be
an sshd which means that in addition
to
having two terabytes of capacity in
addition
to having two terabytes of
capacity
there's also a little bit of
flash
storage on here which depending on
the
game might not actually make a huge
difference
to load time boo the very
least
it should be a little bit quicker
than
a standard hard drive one nice
touch
is that you have everything you
need
to do this as long as you have a
3.5
inch hard drive I do actually think
this
will work with a two and a half
inch
as well but you even have the screw
driver
you have everything you need to
put
on the sled and with that I think
you
can well just put it in here so this
entire
thing is going to operate using
the
front USB 3.0 port on the Xbox so as
long
as we're able to line that up we're
going
to cover up the power button but
it
has a little push button actually
it's
clear too so you can see when it's
on
and off it's gonna be a little tight
I
guess it will work though huh the only
issue
that I actually don't really like
with
this is that as opposed to having
its
own set of power cable which I will
admit
is a little bit annoying instead
it's
actually going to go on top of the
current
power cable considering how much
power
the Xbox one expose to just figure
eight
cable seems a little sketchy also
our
fan doesn't let this go in all the
way
so following apart very quickly but
I
it works right well three terabytes
might
be enough for a normal Xbox one X
this
my friends is the ultimate Xbox one
X
which is where this comes in this
Seagate
game drive with an additional
eight
terabytes of capacity unlike the
rest
of our accessories this is really
straightforward
so instead of attaching
it
directly to the Xbox it just needs a
USB
cable but it does give us an
additional
two USB
3.0
ports on the front of the Xbox to
think
I was worried about not having
enough
ports like five minutes ago so
with
just an external power break and a
single
USB cable we're now up to 11
terabytes
of capacity which is where
this
comes in
the
Samsung t5 SSD this is actually
something
we use on a daily basis here
at
the office so all of our videos are
edited
off of these t5 s and one of the
nice
things is they come in really large
capacities
this one is going to be a
full
2 terabytes of quick SSD storage
all
running off of a single USB cable
almost
said USBC cable but uh we got use
USB
eight for this one I mean do you
need
13 terabytes on your Xbox one X
probably
not do you need to build the
ultimate
Xbox one X probably not are we
done
building the Xbox one X absolutely
not
as
far as controllers go we have a
couple
of Xbox one design lab
controllers
these are really cool
because
you have a lot of customization
options
for how the controllers look and
importantly
there still is going to be
the
same size which is important because
we
have a dual charging station I mean
it
doesn't really look pretty with our
design
lab controllers but now we have
two
controllers down and two more to go
if
you really want the ultimate
controller
for the Xbox one X though you
want
the Duke so this is model almost
identically
after the original Xbox
controller
and while a little bit
controversial
some might say it's a well
you'll
see you'll see oh yeah that's
what
I'm talking about
this
is licensed by Microsoft even
though
it's made by hyper Ken Wow that
looks
almost identical to the original
for
context this is what a standard Xbox
one
control looks like and this is the
Duke
it's massive I think you're
definitely
going to be better at gaming
on
a standard Xbox controller but the
coolest
of this is just there's no way
to
get around it now unfortunately this
is
going to be a wired controller but
thankfully
it's going to be a really
long
cable and it is detachable with
micro
USB as if all these controller
options
weren't enough we also have the
commander
this is actually something I
did
a video on it's like two or three
years
ago but the idea here is that this
is
going to be an adapter that will turn
a
mouse and keyboard into what the Xbox
thinks
is a standard controller so
inside
this little box well it gets a
little
bit complicated but hopefully
won't
be that bad so around front we
have
a mouse keyboard and game pad I
think
you actually have to have all
three
plugged in because it pretends
to
be the gamepad but it's actually
passing
through the mouse and the
keyboard
signal and then around back we
have
another series of USB ports for
PowerPC
game as well as data which looks
like
a eighth inch check oh man this is
this
is a lot welcome my friends to the
completed
ultimate Xbox 1x and yes all
of
these cables and accessories are
completely
necessary so to start with
we're
going to be showing you what the
commander
will do we're going to be
spoofing
it with the actual Xbox one
controllers
you need to make sure this
is
still plugged in but with that your
mouse
your keyboard and everything
attached
via USB we should be able to
play
a game hey it works I mean it's
really
really slow maybe we should've
turned
out the mouse sensitivity a
little
dude this actually doesn't feel
that
different than playing on a PC I
mean
there might be a touch of latency
if
I try to move really quickly but it's
not
that now there's definitely an
argument
to be said this is going to
give
you an unfair advantage but I mean
if
you want to be more comfortable
playing
with your mouse and keyboard
versus
an Xbox controller and you don't
mind
dealing with some Finnick enos it
is
not the easiest thing to set up and
you
do need to kind of keep it tuned per
game
to make sure it has the correct
profile
but you can download those
pretty
easily now why do you have
weapons
okay
well
this is unfortunate this is very
unfortunate
way my way I'm sure you know
nope
wait I got that counts as a kill
right
I blew up on them I would count
that
as a kill Dave will be very proud
the
duke on the other hand well it's
definitely
a much larger controller
personally
I do think that these
standard
Xbox one controller is better
but
anybody's kind of relative right the
Duke
is a unique unique option it also
doesn't
feel that bad so some of the
buttons
are a little bit weirdly laid
out
compared to the newer controller
especially
stuff like the left and right
bumpers
which feel kind of tacked on but
it
works of course we're not here just
to
play fortnight we have 13 terabytes
of
hard drives to install a whole bunch
of
other games if we want to as well so
right
now if you go into the options we
have
the internal hard drive we also
have
another 7 point 2 terabytes from
that
8 terabyte drive over there we have
the
1.8 terabytes of our t5 and then we
have
our 2 terabyte fire CUDA which is
in
here
they'll
actually show up and once you
give
them a quick format I mean it kind
of
works unlike a lot of the building
the
ultimate series that we do this
actually
all works all the accessories
are
plugged in attached skins powered
USB
Dwight ever you want to call it it's
all
actually working now does it make
sense
no of course not
am
I going to put links to every single
one
of these accessories that we used in
the
description of course I am
