Hey All. 

I wanted to ask how you guys clean your PC from Dust?! 

It is a stupid question to ask, but what I mean by asking that, if you using Gas Duster - the can with compressed air, or do you use the compressor.

If you do use a compressor, for how much PSI do you place the machine?

I am asking as I do not wanna buy from time to time the gas can, and prefer to get my own compressor. 

The issue that I am not having apartments to place it, so I though to get a small, portable compressor, like the one we use for tires. 

https://www.amazon.com/TIREWELL-12V-Tire-Inflator-Compressor/dp/B06ZXR9P6R/ref=sr_1_9?crid=3BNLI3V14Z13F&keywords=portable+compressor&qid=1573650785&sprefix=portable+com%2Caps%2C288&sr=8-9

 

The issue as I see, is that it is not provide constant air flow with the same PSI strenght, so I find that this tool can be usless. 

And here where I wanted to ask you, if anyone of you tried to use portable compressor. Did it work as you were planing. 

Did it did the job well done?!

 

Also, maybe instead of PSI, maybe I need to focus on the CFM?

Maybe any one also have a reference for a video with example, as I couldn't find.

 

Thanks

i used a vaccum cleaner on the outside parts and then used compressed air on the parts inside.

just be careful you don't hold the air can wrong and spray out the liquid

Anything i've written between the * and * is not meant to be taken seriously.

keep in mind that helping with problems is hard if you aren't specific and detailed.

i'm also not a professional, (yet) so make sure to personally verify important information as i could be wrong.

I am looking for alternative for gas cans.

DataVac ED500 - there's also some other brands, but can't seem to recall the names of those. I can recommend the DataVac as it's very high quality and just works. I have used mine for the past 5-6 years.
