Cyberclean is this.

http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1074543

Very useful to clean stuff, its kinda like clay, where u just press it on da stuff u wanna clean, it'll mold itself to the shape of the stuff, and all the dust will get stuck on it.

if you're worried about staticcharges, get an anti-static brush (normally black color) from electrical shops from pasar road.

seam that cyber clean is the best option at the moment..
but for the hsf, u still need to remove the fan 1st right???

noob here. thx TS for the thread. i also can learn

But the CyberClean is wet wet de.... Only can use to clean your K/B, Mouse, HP or your casing (exterior). If you put it on your GPU or Mobo or HDD, "gg.com" edi

i also tempted to clean my mobo but im not taking any risk

just clean that hard part between heatsink fins

Well, if u use the CyberClean for a uber dusty area (like a 3 years dust-rich hsf), then sure its a waste coz u will see all the dirt and grease stick to it and making it less reusable. CyberClean just suit for cleaning those small small unreachable place like keyboard IMHO.

Just take everything out, use brush/cotton bud/air compressed can, reapply ur thermal paste (find a good one like Tuniq TX-3 or AC MX-2), change some fan, do some cable management and take a good bath together with ur casing.

If u do everything in order, there shouldn't be problem like unable to turn on etc. If not enough knowledge, then this is a good time to learn as well.

Furthermore, this will strengthen the relationship between u and ur CPU. Ok, this one is irrelevant

yup... there is no easy way to make your rig looks cun..
need to put some effort to it

thx for ur advise.however i will take ur advise after i got my three months holiday and enuf budget to replace any part of the component.
for now, i'm still at U, extremely low on budget.
even if i got budget, it will cost a lot for me to replace any broken part as i'm currently not at any places near places that can get computer component easily like lowyat plaza.

Added on September 6, 2009, 4:48 ami got one precious info/experience for anyone who uses compressed air can. u have to keep a distance when u spray as the compressed air is in liquid form.
if u put too close, the air still is liquid, but if u put too far, the air doesnt has enuf force to clean the dust.
i get this info from a fren and i think its quite important.

addition, u guys know how to add air into motor/car tires rite?i was thinking about using that(the air that comes out of the machine to pump tire) to clean the dust. however, fast moving air also means static charges.
static charges mean damage to ur mobo chipset or any chipset that can easily get broken by small electric current.
the compressed air can doesnt create static charges (according to what my fren said), i duno about that as i havnt use it yet.

Well bro, unless u doing some psu cable sleeving, lapping hsf, playing water cooling or any modding, hardly things will go wrong.

and for ur idea in using the compressed air in auto shop, i afraid the pressure is too high. I've seen people using them for cleaning engine throttle-body and the pressure is a blast , which i think might just kill ur mobo. No idea though coz never try but would stay away

For me, i just use the anti static brush that is provided in LCD cleaning kit, works flawlessly. So far, being cleaning all the pc with it and nothing went wrong.

+ Don't bother cleaning ur casing fan if its RM5 cap ayam coz its troublesome, great noise maker and their life is at the edge. According to my own preferences : just replace it with a better fan like Xigmatek for budget or Scythe for performance. Noctua is good if u can find any. Cooler Master, Vantec, Silverstone fans just dont work for me

Why not spend a bit more on a good case with air filters out side? You just need to clean the filter instead on the components inside. Of course you need to rip them out apart & perform a thorough cleaning initially, but ultimately on the long run, you won't need to touch the component inside.

thx for ur precious advise bro.
but still, i think i better clean my chasis when i take my whole pc set back home.at home, its more convenient, got more tools, budget higher(parent's atm, haha), and most importantly wont influenced my study.
i'll take a look at Xigmatek and Scythe fan too.

Added on September 6, 2009, 11:14 pmi did and still using filter, however in those edges of component inside chasis, even the edges of chasis (the metal pieces at both sides), got dust also.
i wana clean those parts too.
the longer u din clean ur chasis, the more obviuos u'll see dust at those edges.

Final advise.... Spend a "little time" & a "little love" to your RIG

i use a industrial air compressor. not too big one like in car workshops, but just a mid range one.
strong enough to clean everything. even the fans are clean. heatsinks as clean as new, dust in between components in mobo all gone.

mine is smth like this - http://toolmonger.com/wp-content/uploads/2...rcompressor.jpg
not sure abt the horsepower or air strengh though.

in ur opinion(anyone), between sucking air into chasis is and pulling the air out, which one is better in term of cooling and minimization of dust collection inside chasis.

I think a combination of Compressed Can Air and Vaccum Cleaner.. Turn on the vacuum while spaying around so that the dust blown up will immediately get sucked in..

if can air could not be found.. get those pumps used to clean camera lens or alike...

the vacuum u saying is the big one like household use one?

Just go to any bike workshop and ask to borrow the compressor and blower... 1 blow into whole case can clean it out edi... =)

yeah, evithing, including all ur device inside chasis.Nice suggestion, bro.
the pressure of blower at the bike shop is very high. All those static electricity generated from moving air sure will damage ur device before ot does the cleaning job.

Yup been using like this for years now also no problem. Just make sure you ground the rig properly. After the combination of compressed can air and vacuum cleaner, just use the anti-static brush.
