Kinda depends. Whenever I open up the PC (eg: for upgrading purpose), I usually will clean it a little. Clear the dust out. But major cleaning will only be done once I see it get very and I mean very dusty.

Don't know how to dismantle motherboard/ heatsink. I just use some cotton (a little damp) to wipe off dust. Usually clean it when Intel Active Monitor alerts me for overheating.

I don't really dare to use a little damp cotton to clean it...
scared later push the start button, screen black black didn't change... I just use some soft tissue to wipe the mobo and the others... and pull out those sticky dust on the fans and use a dry tissue to wipe it again. |

QUOTE(Kit II @ Mar 28 2007, 10:32 PM) As you all know , our pc might collect dust inside the cpu especially on the fans and heatsinks. i have never clean my own comp at all 4 more than 4 years except when upgrading 2 newer GC  Sometimes when you dont bother this at all, the dust will build up into a pile and it may affect your computer's cooling efficiency. Not only that but also make your computer run more NOISY  . All just because of the dust...Worse case , your pc might burn out or get faulty over time as the ignorance on it. So lets find out how often we clean our computer and discuss about it..  so far i did it 4x in the last 4 years bcoz i been upgrading GC so many times MX series---5 series---6 series---7 series---8 series whether i m going 2 upgrade again 2 future 9 series remains 2 b seen This post has been edited by skylinegtr34rule4life: May 14 2007, 11:10 PM |
