The next pic is from after the 7970 died,i thought i had pics of the damage to the 7970,but i can't find the pics anywhere. The GPU i put in because i had no other spares at the time. It was an ATI x600.

That last big space tho...

 

Sorrry i had it there to make it easier when i was adding the pics.

AH!!!!! Kill me now, my eyes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I said "Dust Warning!" lol

 

You may not believe but the pic from after the 7970 had died,i had cleaned it just 1 1/2 months before the pics,dust builds fast where i am for some reason.

 

In the current pics I had cleaned it 2 months before when i lent it to my sister.

 

My current rig i have been cleaning at least once a month.

What self respecting PC builder could ever let their case get so dirty?

Bought a powermac G5, expect a mod log sometime in 2015

Corsair is overrated, and Anime is ruined by the people who watch it

Here where I live they get even more dust than that. It isn't weird to see that I bath them after some months

This is a signature.
