|

i just can't afford to buy compressed air all the time
i need ways to clean my pc and the other pc's at home
my pc gathers huge amount of dust everyday
vacuum= creates static that may kill pc
brush = leaves the dust inside the case

Put your PC on the top of your desk as it gathers less dust.
Put filter in front of all intake fans to reduce the amount of dust that enters your pc.

Works pretty well for individual fans, though.

Alcohol. Just make a cloth damp, not dripping. Thats how I clean my fans and heat sinks. As for the case. remove all the hardware and you can infact just vacuum it out and or hose it out and let it dry. Just dont get your mobo wet :x
