better than cleaning up dust. Figure out why so much dust accumulation in the first place. Eliminate the problem first.

I know what my problem is... I live in between 2 cornfields and across the street from one too.  Then there is that my property deed say (Built in 1900) so my house is swiss cheese and has the efficiency of a steam engine powered by charcoal and lighter fluid.

dude referall links on amazon for air cleaners....  Just use a forced air (not compressed air because of condensation imo) blower and hold the fans so they dont spin.  A rough cleaning is fine.  take note of your temps and when the temps go up 10c you know its time to clean

He must be rolling in dough with all the cans of compressed air everyone is buying from his links

Compressed air is useless really.

A little maintenance is enough to preserve

I use an electric blower, you just plug it to the wall and instead of vacuum, it blows air... not of that kind that blows leaves, a smaller unit, similar to a really small vacuum cleaner
GPUs get fairly clean with it, and it is a very simple and cheap way of doing it. Holding the fans while blowing is important to prevent possible damage

I use my 18V electric leafblower. I made a few contraptions I stick onto the cards that basically keep the fans from spinning and just blast the whole damn rig. Even the PSU, motherboard and CPU get cleaned and it only takes me about 15 min per rig to power down, move it outside, blast it with air and scrub with a toothbrush where there is oil. And I don't have to buy expensive compressed air cans or deal with an underpowered electronic datavac.

My "secret" dust removing tool:


Yeah, I'm old school !

Nice, I use a bicycle track pump to clean my rigs. A bit tedious, but a good work out
