Endless Paradigm

Yeah yeah I again noticed how important it is to keep your PC dust free.
My PC suffered again from random shutdows so I cleaned my CPU fan as much as a could with a veeery thin piece of wood and my temps dropped by amazing 20°C!

What I wanted to ask, is there anything I can install in/on my PC to prevent dust from getting into the CPU fan or better yet case altogether?^^

yeh more fans blowing arit out of the case or an exhaust :D

yes exhausts on pcs are real

i had only clean my case filters ;) i am no good cleaning,. ;p

i had also have to change the oil !!

I already ordered two additional 12cm fans for my case and I will try to seal off the open PCI slot at the back but how the hell should exhausts work on PC Squee? o_o

And Vegetano... I guess the most appropriate term would be: HOLY SH*T! O_O ^^

the exhaust goes on a pci slot

it doesn't slot into your board but takes a case alot and sucks are out using a fan it looks kinda like a graphics card lol

excellent. quick fixes so effective.

Yeah Sensei^^ Though I guess it will only hold a year....

@Squee: Ah I remember seeing these on Amazon, might get one^^

Go to the hardware store and get some antialergy register filters.  It's a shit of cotton feeling stuff then put that over your intake fans.  I have done that to all of my cases ad rarely gave CPU dust buildup.  And I have 7 cats and 2 dogs worth of hair that can get in there!

My belief - if air gets out, it must be getting in from somewhere.  So extra fans probably won't help that much.
Dust filters as suggested probably work better.

i dust my case about every 3 months.

although i did forget once.
