here is a little guide

The PC cleaning Desktop PC

Dust inside of a PC is not just annoying,
but also can quickly trigger a failure (heat death) are the components.
Best mind. 1 time 2 times better in cleaning the PC completely.

The tools needed are:

Towels: As cloths to offer a paper towel or microfibre cloths.
Vacuum cleaner: a vacuum cleaner you can use as long as it matching a,
small and not hard top features. (Brush)
For finer work brush, cotton buds and toothpicks are helpful.
Compressed air: is a very good helper, but no compressor compressed air (oil and water)
uses compressed air in cans for IT about 10 €.

Duck air and brush is recommended for a good cleaning of the PC in any case.

Important:

Do not use water, if then only use distilled water, preferably but without it.
What should you use are by no means static Charged towels,
how they are gathering dust like marketed.

Point 1:
Prior to cleaning the PC completely Normally make (plug) and USB and monitor stake.

Point 2:
Open PC case, are usually only 2 screws on the side panel.

Point 3 :
With the compressed air over a large area in the interior of the PC blow, and then suck with vacuum cleaner.

Point 4:
PC fan - the fan must usually be removed,
right to him to clean können.Wer no experience in this Breich has,
can also blow him only by compressed air.

Point 5:
Graphics card - just like the PC fan.

Item 6:
still free, the housing and the remaining components (DVD drive, hard drives, etc ....) of dust.

avoid dust

In order for the PC as fast is not to collecting dust,
and around you thereby facilitating the next cleaning,
can you change in many PCs some things.

Firstly of course applies:
where little dust outside the PC is also little dust comes into the PC.

Especially where fan air into eyes, much dust can get into the PC.
In construction market there are, for example, flexible,
meshed flyscreen - this you can you fit trim and tape it to the points of the PC,
where dust can penetrate.

As I said I would the PC min. 1 time in clean to avoid a loss of hardware.

Workload depending on PC 10 - 15 mins per cleaning.
