Tissue over front intake fan.

[MetalOwns]

I cut squares out of a piece of screen and put those over my intake fans. Just find some mesh or something along those lines and cut squares out of it. It works well too...When I pulled open the side of my case and looked at the filter on one intake fan, it was covered with dust.

i use the compressor in my truck shop to blow the dust out.
for one thing, it doesnt have any moisture in it like a can will if you tilt it the wrong way.
for another thing, its about mmmmm, 350psi. there aint no dirt hidin from that kind of pressure, lol...i dont have to wipe anything. dont get it too too close though, it would blow the hsf off and the cpu out of its socket lmao.

Word to that, I have a 25gal Craftsman air compressor in my garage. It's ridiculous how much air it blows. When I fill my tires up, I only have to hold it in 5 seconds fore each tire.

For filters I use dryer sheets and to clean out my pc I use a leaf blower.

panty hose to the rescue

Panty hose is a good idea. Nylon is so cool.

wouldnt a tissue be a bad idea? wouldnt you just end up getting the small fibres inside instead of dust?

dust off works great....just dont turn the can upside down LOL
