After one and half years of continuous service its looks like this. I also Shocked after I saw it. My PC is still working. I think I better install a Air purifier.

Hi Pasan,

quite impressive, but nothing compared to the dust on the country side which cloggs up the air intake of the power supply within three months.

Use a soft brush and a vacuum cleaner at regular intervals.

I do not recommend using any purifiers or filters since the fans inside the PC have low total pressure and will stall (aerodynamically) if the resistance gets too high.

A stalled fan won't cause any air movement at all. The result will be worse than a bit of dust on the fan blades - and probably overheat components like the graphic acellerator card and HDDs.

Thanks for the advice Mr.Boncuk

Now I don't feel bad about my dirty pc anymore.

You should consider relocating the PC away from high dust sources. Possibly check your heating/cooling system in your location for dust accumulations in air handling ductwork. There are companies that will vacuum the ductwork. Just think about it, you are breathing in that same dust over time.
