How often do you dust your PC?

Be ghetto like linus and put a pantyhose as your fan filter.

as a shape of axe

Also known as a leaf blower.

 

It will work, just keep it at a distance and do it in short bursts

I'll try to remember the one Carey Holzman uses. It's a battery powered one.

Electric leafblower.

i think a air compressor or one of those metro vacuum, but since your using a leaf blower then i suggest doing short burst to make sure not to damage any chips.

I wouldn't buy a leaf blower just to clean a pc from dust as you only need to do that like 3 or 4  times a year, I just buy cans of compressed air and they last me for a year definitely as there are 4 cans for 15£ so it isnt that expensive when it will last you a year. I guess you could use a leaf blower but I dont think it will clean it out as well as with one of these cans cause you wouldnt want to bring the leaf blower very close to the parts as that will probably cause damage

 

Here's the Link if you're interested

Enjoy your not so free air if you get it :3

That's a canister of compressed air that you can use ONCE. for about 5 minutes. And then it'll be empty.

Get an electric air compressor.

well all i found was a electric air compressor for car tires. As I said earlier they are very rare in my region.

that's the one. Use one of those with a small narrow nozzle and you'll be good to go.

I have those stupid glossy plastic peripherals (blue snowball, Samsung monitor) and today I finally got around to wiping them off with some anti-bacteria wipes or whatever. Anyways, I was just wondering how you guys kept your stuff clean, and if your stuff got dirt on it really quick. 

 

After today I'm going to try extra-hard to keep my tech stuff looking nice.

It's simple.

 

I can't; therefore I don't.

I use drier sheets and wipe everything down they pick up alot of dust since they also pick up alot of lint in the drier which is kinda the same thing as dust to some extent. And for my computer i place it onto of the table along with my tv which helps prevent dust build up.

NEVER GIVE UP. NEVER STOP LEARNING. DONT LET THE PAST HURT YOU. YOU CAN DOOOOO IT
