air compressor will clean the dust off your GTX 670, that's my way of cleaning my rig anyway.

"Sulit" (adj.) something that is worth it

watch out for using normal air compressors tho(not cans, cans are fine), as the air can contain moisture, so if you use that let the card dry off for at least a few hours

Beat me to it. Canned compressed air is worth the couple bucks if your air compressor doesn't have a water trap.
