Quickie: Remember the Dust
So my PC got quite slow lately and crahed in games from time to time. Everest revealed high CPU temperatures which I could fight with increased fan speeds for a while. Ultimately though I had to dismount my CPU fan and clean it completely. I always forget just how much dust a PC can accumulate if you aren’t careful.
Lacking the time for a real post, all I can give you today is this little reminder: check your PC for dust, you know it’s been a while. And look below the fans too, that’s where the nasty stuff is. Your CPU will thank you for it.

My laptop fan ended up braking over this actually
Intake is on the bottom, so it sucks up all the dust from the table. It came to a noisy end around the eight year and I had a lot of fun cleaning out all the dust…
Also, huuuge wait time for repair parts from Korea, so I have to agree with this post.
