How to Clean Inside of Computer

[@milrad100]

"This thing is dusty as hell" "So nasty", while me opening the case to a pc my family hasnt used for over 10 years. It so fuzzy i couldnt even see the black base, and i swear i saw something move in the corner.

[@danisuperups]

I´ve never actually done this in the three years I have my pc... Going to do it tomorrow. Wonder how must dust there will be lol

[@Itcareerquestions]

Lol, Good luck! Take it outside!

[@JakovPeace]

dude i havent cleaned mines in 5 years.... i gotta do that sunday lol,

[@vervoortjo4307]

@@JakovPeace hahaha some over here !! Lemme order this can of air bro !! :'D

[@ThomasLe]

Advisable to do this OUTSIDE. Also with the compressed air you dont want to shake it or spray at an angle. Optimum is the straw level to the ground. It sprays a liquid if you do it other wise and can harm the components.

[@Soulrollsdeep]

No it can't, you could pour water all over your PC and it'll do asolutely nothing, AS LONG as it's not plugged in or has any residual current running through it - and obviously let it dry before plugging in. Same with any and every electrical component.

[@alyafei3829]

@@Soulrollsdeep not true, the minerals in the water could eventually harm the circuitry, and damage components, distilled water would work, but I've heard that it can absorb the minerals and damage it.

[@forthecountry7920]

@@Soulrollsdeep ^This, that liquid evaporates immediately anyway, been doing this for ever and never had an issue, also I let my fans roll free - never had a failure there either.

[@BPoweredLove]

I've never heard it was bad to let fans spin. I have years of having fun trying to see how fast I can get them to spin and then blowing to switch direction to blow more dust off. Ooops.

[@DarkArcticTV]

lmao

[@SmellyBigFoot]

I want to do this for my PC but I'm scared of screwing something up. D:

[@MRKSWEC]

Smelly BigFoot - Minecraft & More! There's not much you can do wrong. Unplug the the power cable, press the on/off button a few times to make sure there isn't any static left in the power supply and than blow that dust out. Just make sure to prevent the fans from spinning very fast when blowing the dust out of them, just as he said.

[@countskrule9170]

I used a leaf blower on mine, probably a bad idea, but it took care of the dust.

[@starnouse9554]

Same here

[@SuperMrHolmes]

The alternative is that your computer will get super dusty and that will be bad for your computer. So the chances of you screwing it up is better inevitable fate your computer will befall if you don’t try. I know I’m late so I hope you eventually got over your fear haha

[@zewlikeesss981]

@president piss lobster imagine a leaf blower on a 10 yo dust in his pc

[@beckyholt2531]

Great tutorial! I like how you told us how then showed. I had tried everything to make it faster, but never thought to actually physically clean it. I havent cleaned it in about a year so this made a huge difference! :)

[@zaraheart]

Not cleaning the pc can actually slow it down?! 😮 uhoh..

[@thelowmein9143]

Omg I’ve cleaning my PCs wrong my whole life then lol. I have been using a household vacuum with a duster cup attachment with the pc off but still plugged in. For decades I’ve been doing this with no problems, now I learn that I’ve been tempting fate this whole time.

[@kraftaksvk]

how many times did you clean it? did any static electricity harm your pc? I need to clean my pc but i cant get hold of canned air and its also expensive.

[@peaches_for_free]

@@kraftaksvk Found canned air on Alza for 5 euros

[@kraftaksvk]

@@peaches_for_free thanks, but that's pretty expensive for "air". I saw some for 2€ and I still think it's expensive. also canned air makes a mess because it blows all the dust in air. also I heard that canned air generates static electricity too

[@Khantra]

@@kraftaksvk you’re not going to find it any cheaper than that

[@kraftaksvk]

@@Khantra I know

[@solarwinds-]

Thank you, Good info. I never knew you were not supposed to let the fan spin. Is there any part of the computer you're not supposed to hit with the air? I like the short intro and just good, strait to the point information and easy to understand. Thank you.

[@pamtebelman2321]

How often do you recommend it? Can I take it to a computer store and have them clean it? I wonder how much they would charge.

[@PaliSuttas]

Thanks for info. I have used vacuum and I've also used air on fans without holding down! My bad!

[@c_farther5208]

What about the hard drive, mine has a lot of dust on it. If I spray it, won't it go back into the computer? Good demo, thanks, I have never used the canned air, just used the microfiber towel, but the fans are terrible. Thank you for putting this out.

[@Itcareerquestions]

no problem. you can used the canned air to blow off the hard drive as well. you might use a whole can cleaning out the entire thing but a $5.00 investment is worth it.

[@c_farther5208]

I really learned so much from you. I just want to tell you, you put out a great video. You should teach in a classroom.

[@Itcareerquestions]

C_ Farther Thank you, I've always wanted to. I love doing videos and helping people so this is definitely the next best thing.

[@gregoryagogo]

my experience is the canned air stirs up the dust and it's handy to have the vacuum right there too to suck in the dust. What good does it do to scatter the dust without getting it out? I say the vacuum right there to pull out the dust works for me.

[@kraftaksvk]

same, I think if you vacuum the pc and then leave it for an hour for the static electricity to disappear, you should be ok i think

[@creationcenterTV]

From the case to the room! Always do this outside

[@TardRepellent]

I've been to seven different stores today and they all look at me like I'm a crackhead bout to go find a bridge and huff duster or whatever people do with it. I use ESD shoes for work, that should keep me from damaging any internal parts right?

[@suslol6075]

I know this comment is pretty old but have you considered using amazon

[@Ctb-rm5hg]

Is a shop vac (1.5g) in reverse (blowing not sucking) a possible alternative to tap, tap spraying it down?

[@dannynguyen7293]

Thanks, helped a lot. When he said to no directly touch the motherboard, should I still use canned air on it regardless?

[@Wipsnipidy]

He says you should at 7.06 ish

Hey brother one Question this would help alot, you think i Can just Use those Rocket Air Blasters instead of just Buying Canned Hair????

[@ting3695]

is it ok if I cleaned it once without holding down the fan, my fans seem fine but I didn't know to hold it down before.

Of course, nowadays you would be wearing a mask. I use a large fan and point it into the side of the computer. This way it blows the dust loose and out of the cabinet

Can’t understand why you would want all that in your lungs?! Or why you would do it indoors at all? All you did was move it. Put some decent filter netting on your intakes on the case and you will then catch most of it, as your PC basically works as a vacuum cleaner sucking everything bad towards it!
