This is an important factor in the life of your new PC! About once a month I take the vacuum cleaner with the brush attachment and a small paint brush (about 1/2" size) and clear the dust from all holes and fans. I normally keep the vaccum pipe a safe distance from any parts and it still takes care of the dust floating around.
Be sure to clear any dust around the CPU cooling fans and the video card heatsink / fan. ALWAYS disconnect the power while performing cleaning because even when the PC is shut down there is still power running to some parts of the PC. |
