Here's my proof. Post up pics of your nice, clean, positive air flow PC.
That baby looks like I just built it yesterday... |

here's my new 'puter. Pretty clean as it's only 6 weeks old. But CL is right. If you don't take a can of compressed air to your CPU cooler and fans at least every couple of months, you're asking for trouble.

Want some computer with that cooler, eamo? LOL
You must have that o/c'd through the roof to need a cooler like that  |

It's a big'un. No doubt. I took the E6750 from 2.66 to 3.4ghz. Nice temps. Coretemp shows no more than 51C at full load. I could go to 3.7-3.8 with that cooler, but 3.4ghz does it for me. |

My unit clogs up with cat hair, tobacco smoke, & dust, then crashes & burns.
I regard it as a 2 or 3-year disposable. |

LOL ! I was just thinking about doing that today, and after seeing this post I decided to take care of it. Sorry, no pics. I was too embarrased of my wimpy system compared to the others . Thanks for the kick in the butt to actually clean her up though. |
