BetaFlux, If I want to clean my computers fans, what wilI I have to do (so that I won't damage anything) ?? Can I just use my vacuum cleaner to remove the dust?
looks like good fun cleaning that thing! id like to do that! I think my pc is getting too hot and dusty depite my best efforts to keep it clean. freezes sometimes and occasionally shuts itself off. Whats that things your using to clean it? compressed air? are they cheap to get?
@kellyfortune if its dirty then you should clean the the heatsink above the processor, this is the big 'thing' right in the middle of the motherboard - thats the most important one.
if its not dust which is causing the problems, it could be other things like hardware problems. use software to check temperatures of your hard drive or processor or wherever, this will give you some idea where the problem is.
I always keep my computer clean, and of all the computer places I'm subscribed to on YouTube, you BetaFlux are the first one to say so that it is important to clean out your computer, so Kudos to you for that! And whenever people hire me to fix their computers and stuff, i always do a free clean, one time I actually found a living spider inside!!!! HOW? I have no clue!
I have seen spiders living inside too.. have no clue why they would do that, I cant imagine very much food coming in for a spider. I hate those things, arrghhh.
Yeah I know, but computers get really hot and such, and there are always fan spinning, so I don't understand why they would want to live there. And I never though of using the pressurized air thing your using on my computer, mmmm I prefer using those compressed air cans, but thanks for letting me know i can use my big tank of air :D
I literally just rebuilt my PC with updated hard drives, DVD/CD roms, soundcards....etc....and my PC had a TON of dust that collected on my fans, motherboard and on my IDE cables. Shit was very nasty. I wonder if there were dust mites in there. And you're right, my PC would cut off when it got hot.....not to mention the temp in my BIOS exceeded 270 degrees Far.
On the back of your laptop you should have around 3 small pads that you can open up with a regular screwdriver. One should contain the RAM, another one may contain the wireless device, and the other gives you access to the heatsink and the processor, also good to clean the heatsink. You can also look it up on the company's website about how to take the keyboard off and such :D
why the f did u put a background song if u talk!? >.<

I already bought a couple of air duster cans, but this looks way more fun :)
It doesn't usually blow anything out of place (besides the dust) does it?

@Hornproduction You can use a soft paint brush until you can get some air, and clean off the fan blades.

@mathias921 If you don't have a way to blow it out you could use a really soft paint brush to knock the dust lose then vacuum it up.
