More Information/External Sources
Overheating/overvoltage issues causing damage to both 12v (Tpcc8131) and 5v components (reference Go Gamer's video.)
There have been a few problems with popular "user damageable" parts such as the HDMI circuit. HDMI ports are very weak for the Series X and tend to break easily. You can avoid this by keeping the console in a safe location and ensure there are no trailing cables or potential to fall down. Keep them as low to the ground as you possibly can and clean them out regularly using a can of compressed air inside the vents.
No Booting / Turns on then off:
