Extra tip: Use qtips to remove dust that might not come off with an air duster. This is especially true if you haven't cleaned your pc in a while as dirt tends to get stickier. You can also use isoporpil alcohol to clean non-electrical things such as the case plastics and/or tainted glass

I read somewhere also you should at most use 20 PSI pressure for PC cleaning, otherwise you might over time loosen the capacitors and other components on the motherboard/graphics card, even if you're careful to only blow air into the heatspreader fins. I have an old graphics card that suffered exactly from this -1 capacitor :P

I had the big blower/vacuum and cleaned my pc a while back. I regretted that decision, coz it left my 2nd pc not working. I maybe have done a few steps wrong.

Fellow Wisconsin guy here!

I keep my house pretty clean so I had minimal dust build up but I hadn’t cleaned it in about 4 years. The only spot that was bad was the bottom and it was a lot. The inside was not bad but I’m sure now it’ll have extra flow. I’m only worried about that air can duster bc it sprayed alittle nitrogen at the PCU so I’m giving it time to possibly dry, it didn’t have but 1 sec on the component but just to be sure

I use a foam cleaning agent for the case on the outside, a hairdryer for the inside with the help of my mom's old makeup brush...it's called improvising, ladies and gentlemen...Oh, and for those of you who are like me and clean their PC once per year, make sure to remove the huge dust clots Inside the GPU fans, real mean sons of guns these are...Oh, and don't forget about our trusty cleaner, the q-tip brushes, they can clean small areas and openings in your PC

What about a mini vacuum for keyboards? can we use that cleaning the dust from the inside?

@mysteriousboozebunny6534

There‘s no electro-magnetism going on here (at least not to an extent that could do any damage). Static electricity is a real problem if you use a vacuum, though. Seriously, don’t use a vacuum, it’ll kill your PC. Also, not blocking off the fans might also destroy your motherboard, because electric motors are really just generators in reverse, so when you spin them mechanically, they’ll output electricity. It’s good practice to keep yourself grounded while cleaning your PC.

i giggled when you said leaf blower but hey if it works, why not I suppose

pressurized air may spray some moisture if built up so watch for that

just cleaned it went from high of 120 frames lows of 40 to a steady 180 in games like fort

It’s been about 5 month since I have gotten my pc and I didn’t clean it yet, it’s not very dusty. So do I just clean it how you did? Also can you tell me if I should buy the air duster from Bestbuy, Amazon, or Canada computers.
