I've noticed that because I'm in a college dorm where dusting is as foreign as studying, my PC is getting full of crap. Weekly, I have to clean the front air intakes. Which is easy. What isn't easy is cleaning the dust out of my TurboCool 850. How would I do that? Does opening the back grate over the fan void the warranty?

Tried a blast from a can of air?
to get it really clean, u gotta take it out of the case. you can use a can of air, just make sure to have it out in an open area. the dust cloud that comes out of the unit will swallow up anything near it. everytime i spray out my psu's i can hardly believe how much crud has accumulated in them. spray from the front of the psu ((the part in the case)), to the back fan ((exhaust fan)) in the back so that it pushes everything out the back of the psu. a few shots should get it clean. i most commonly use an air gun and compressor since it pushes alot of air, and i can use it continuously without it losing pressure.

You mean that part that A+B always = C? Yeah, that sure would be swell. Not in this reality though
They are. You get pissed at them daily, they do things that make no sense, yet you cannot live without them. Yep, women are just like computers.
