I have just got myself a new case and gpu after nearly 4 years.

Was sitting here think when the last time i actually cleaned my case and H100 and it was 4 years ago when it whet into the case.

I will be changing over the case next week and dread to think what state its in,the thing is ive never ever had a problem with the temps or pc.

Do you clean your case regularly ?
 
Yes, fan filters get cleaned of dust every week and inside case about twice a year unless I`m upgrading then it gets done same time.
 
About three months ago iirc. Gave it a quick dust out when i swapped the air cooler for an antec h1200 AIO.
 
Built a x99 with a be-quiet 600 case the main front filter just pulls out a quick monthly brush to get the dust off job done.

Its been about 6 months so pulled the side panel off just a slight trace of dust a quick brush all over inside the case, a blast of air.

Job done in under 10 minutes.
 
Honestly... I haven't owned a PC since 2007... so Yeah, 2007 was the last time I cleaned my Case/Hardware :D

I cleaned the screen on my laptop last week though, does that count?
 
I clean the filters on the front of my case once a month I tend to clean inside the case when I upgrade hardware so I got a new modular psu a few wereks ago and was able to clean it then when I was doing some cable management
 
Checked weekly and cleaned when it needs it, Also thermal paste on cpu and gpu changed every 6 months. ;) I have had no issues doing it that way, as the first time I changed thermal paste after 12 months it was dry as a done and my temps were a little high. My new way keeps my temps down which good. :D

P.S sorry for going off topic there.
