How do you clean your PC?

[Tt-Van]

When it comes to cleaning your rig do you take everything out and clean it piece by piece or do you just take a special cleaner to it? I have never cleaned a PC and would love to know the best way to get the job done.

Compressed air works wonders !

Often suck up dust on gpu fans, cpu fans and motherboard with a small handy vacuum cleaner. may need an air blower. Only do such things when exchanging the gpu or cpu.

Compressed air, Pledge Wipes, Rubbing alcohol and cotton swabs!

i have taken parts out, but only when really needed... first vacuum the visible stuff that you can get to.. then carry it outside and hit it with canned air!

 

POOF!

No problem. I always check to make sure no unfixed little parts there.
