We make ChrossX, so this is a comparison from the product maker. ChrossX and Crosshair X are separate products. ChrossX is not affiliated with CenterPoint Gaming.
Choose ChrossX if you want a simple custom crosshair with a small set of controls. Consider Crosshair X if a large community library, advanced design options, and Xbox Game Bar fullscreen support are priorities.

When ChrossX makes sense
You want to pick your crosshair style, size, and color without working through a large editor. ChrossX costs $1.99 once, with lifetime access. Its memory claim is a developer observation; it is not evidence that another app will slow your game down.
What about a free crosshair overlay?
Crosshair V2, also made by CenterPoint Gaming, is a free option based on presets. If your game's native crosshair already meets your needs, you may not need an overlay at all.
Check your setup before choosing
Think about the display mode you use and the rules of your game, server, or tournament. ChrossX does not guarantee support for every exclusive fullscreen configuration. Read our compatibility guide, then get ChrossX if it fits your setup.
