I didnt know you can take apart a GPU and you have great tips on this video. Thank you for the content and yes it is like therapy. God Bless.
You're seriously becoming one of my favorite tech youtubers. Your set always looks so clean, the editing is superb and you really know your stuff. It was satisfying to see this build cleaned and given some new flare. Thanks to your videos I was able to swap out my power supply yesterday which I've never done before.

My first computer, a prebuilt HP from a shop, about 15-20 years ago, used to get really loud in the summer and I didn't have a clue why. Obviously I knew it was something to do with the heat, but I didn't have a clue about heatsinks, fans, etc. I think the fan must have just had 2 modes, low and full blast! It wasn't even that dirty since it was fairly new, just a stupid prebuilt cheap computer. Definitely a good idea to build your own PC though, so that you know what all the components are and what they do.

I cleaned our family pc a while back and it had 14 years' worth of caked-on dust inside. I HAD to open the power supply to clean it. I didn't blast it with an air compressor bc here in the south it's far too humid outside so I did it the hard way. First, I vacuumed the majority of the surface dust, then I went in with tweezers and pulled dust out of the nooks and crannies, super satisfying btw. Then I vacuumed again and used an ultra-soft car detailing brush made for delicate surfaces to get the remaining I still couldn't reach with the tweezers. After removing all the dust, I used a kid's toothbrush (bc it has super soft bristles) and lots of q-tips with isopropyl alcohol to clean all the dust residue. The PSU def took the longest to clean but was very satisfying to do. After cleaning and reassembling everything else, the computer now works perfectly!

I’ve been recommending to lift rigs off the floor. Make yourself a wooden platform you can support on a wall with a french cleat. This will reduce the dust build up in your system. Also, if you have dogs it will also keep dog hair out of your system. If you can’t put the system on the wall, put it up on a desk or another piece of furniture off the floor. The higher off the floor the better.

It brought me so much joy when you upgraded her power supply! We all have ran into this problem, where we buy used parts to save money and small issues tend to come up from doing so. Like her not getting the simple cable because the last guy didn’t need it. Usually for me this is something that would need ordered then you play the waiting game. The fact that you could just fix the problem immediately instead of telling her she needs to order a $10 wire was such a solid thing to do! You definitely earned a sub with bells from me! Great videos man! Keep up the great work! 🙏🏼

We moved everything over to a new case a few days ago for my Frankenstein build (parts acquired from friends). One of my friends helped move it over as I didn't have the confidence. I ended up having to reseat the CPU cooler myself since it kept popping CPU overheat upon boot. I came across your videos and you now have a new sub!
So satisfying that you let her pull that plastic film off. That's the best part of new electronics. Also very nice of you to give her a new cooler and a new PSU.
I love this! I do this all the time! Love the small upgrades here and there; taking new parts to rejuvenate old hardware. Keep it up!

@@Quoi.Phoque It does not take a lot of ESD to fry a motherboard. Hes not gonna get hurt, but the components easily could. RAM + motherboard components can fry if you’re not grounded easily especially in a high ESD environment (Humid areas). An anti static matt or band takes like 15 seconds to put on, takes a whole lot longer to resolder a fried node or replace the motherboard I’ll give it to you though that with modern components, this isn’t as much of a problem. But it’s still best practice. And when handling other people’s computers, ya shouldn’t risk it man.
Honeestly? That pink case looks really freaking good
I love watching PC cleans, IF you saw mine you'd be surprised it still works as mine is 10x worse than hers was, The entire of the inside way grey. I have started to clean it now though as I'm doing a new build soon as my current one I've been using for 7 years and she's done me well.
The company I work at has me sometimes clean computers. It’s a furniture supply company, a factory. The computers get crazy dirty… I just use a electric leaf blower. So far haven’t had a single issue.
You need to do this as a monthly or a biweekly series. This was so satisfying.

That is an IMPRESSIVE hair cake you pulled off the heatsink. Holy wow I bet that was satisfying.
very cool to see a deep clean like this. I usually just dust mine out with a can of air. I might have to do this at some point myself.

Most of the time compressed air is adequate if you use it periodically. I went five years once without taking my computer apart and there was alot of buildup of fine dust (microscopic in fact) on the motherboard backplate, other than that it was fine.

@@Magnulus76 My current setup is nearing 2 years old I think. Come winter I'll take it all apart and clean the dust out. With past computers I've noticed huge boosts after getting rid of dust and such.
That"s so wholesome you gave her a new psu! Great to see big youtubers helping people who need help :)
You sir have a heart of gold when I saw that you upgraded the PSU with such humility I subscribed like lightning fast ;))
It's funny when the cooler of the block is at the top, you can immediately see the pros collected!
Courtney is laughin'! Deep cleaned PC, free upgraded PSU and CPU cooler! Only thing that got me with the build was the GPU sagg. Overall, awesome work Greggy boy.
as soon as I seen the Ostrog case I knew it was an old PC. I used the red version of that case for my build, before the one I have now. And the one I have now I built like 4 years ago.
Go in for a clean and leave with a new psu and cpu cooler. If only getting my car cleaned would result in some uprgrades.
what a cool guy for upgrading some of her parts!
At 5:00 min. we can see how dirt can clog a stock CPU cooler; this also happens with AMD stock cooler. A long-long time ago I had a total system failure because of this (stock cooler + negative air pressure = dust magnet), since then I no longer use the stock cooler on any PC. Also stay away from aftermarket CPU coolers with a similar design; a good case and enough fans (with the proper orientation to promote airflow) are also important...
I'm straight up addicted to this series...i watch it twice a day and it helps me cope with my ocd....i have a problem lol
Wow, that was so satisfying, now I'm motivated to clean my pc. Gonna see 15years of dust build up.
Greg, you are the cleverest and at the same time the kindest PC-tech person I've ever seen. I love your contents.
the best part if this is that we always see builds on channels but never breakdowns and then the cleanings a nice extra!!!

Damn, those burnt caps on the back of the GPU. I considered myself semi retired from the tech support field, but this year I've cleaned and installed more work for friends and family that on the last 5 years, got a lot of nasty pictures of hard paste, dust mattress (yeah, mattress, not bunnies), people that tore down their laptops because they couldn't tolerate the fans and brought to me Sunday afternoon "uhhh... can you fix it? I need it to remote work Monday morning". After that they're like "wait, so the computer isn't supposed to sound like a turbo engine? I can't even listen to it and is so fast, what did you do?" heavy thermal throttling, and was usable even with an HDD after cleaning, I begged them to get an SSD because I was out of them (I buy some every now and then, again, for friends and family). Just a question, what thickness pads do you use on GPU and VRM (if it's even the same), see you changed some and leave others, I assume you didn't had that same thickness

Got a great tip for anyone cleaning their PCs. Use a vacuum with brush attachment! You really can’t do any harm with that. Also - do not remove Intel CPU and expose that fragile LGA. Also I know paper towels are very intriguing to use on pcb’s but they’ll tear on every piece that’s left behind. You can use vacuum after again tho.
Great channel Greg! FYI 3:45 It is much more safe and effective to use a clean soft paint brush brush to dust here , I have seen small surface mount components get snagged using this method and pop off ask me how I know. 😅... I use an air compressor (cans are expensive and they are useless) outside for the bulk stuff then with a soft brush in conjunction with the compressed air works the best for me.
Great video idea! For the next Episodes try and get an aircompressor (better for the environment than those air cans and more power). Also try and get some anti static brushes. They make cleaning off dust and stuff way easier.

I'll never understand this trend now of making the cables go down, like, there's already sagging happening, and instead of helping reduce it by making the cables go up you worsen it? For what? A bit of aesthetics? Which is arguable since i don't really like how it looks.
