Been watching some videos of people repairing systems and.... Good god! Do these people play their systems in the Florida Everglades!?!?!? It's mind blowing how downright FILTHY so many of these systems are, inside and out:







I will clean them on the outside every few weeks. Try to remove dust from the vents and the like.

 

[Artistic]

Vacuum and alcohol wipes.

Wait a sec he cleaned the PS5 even without removing the fan? That's incomplete cleaning!

Air compressor every 6 months is enough to keep it "clean"

 

[nikos]

Pretty much everything I own is in pristine.

 

[Holammer]

Cleaned my PC a couple of weeks ago. First time in a year since I bought it. Hardly any dust innit, Fractal Design know their stuff.
A puff of compressed air and done.

 

[Ovek]

I just throw it away when it gets too dusty and buy another. Cleaning is for the poor.

 

[Topher]

Throw mine in washer and dryer once a week

 

[Loomy]

Very. Get your vents and air ducts cleaned every couple of years, people.

 

[TintoConCasera]

A thin, solid layer of Cheetos keeps the hardware in perfect condition.

My PS5 is collecting so much dust it seems I tipped over my grandma's urn and her ashes fell all over it.

 

[Exentryk]

Haven't ever cleaned my pc in 10-11 years. There is a little bit of dust but still runs fine.

Throw mine in washer and dryer once a week

Only once a week?

 

[Topher]

Only once a week?

That's all the wife will do

 

[uncreativename]

I clean the entire room my computer's in with a swiffer, and that and the outside of the computer case with wipes, every day, and I vacuum it (the room, not the computer lol) every three days.

So far so good.

 

[ReBurn]

I understand the limitation. Once a week is probably fine.

Just cleaned my ps5 a week ago but I have cleaned my systems like every 6 months to a year for the past 10 years . Like 10 years ago I moved in with my brother and his GF at the time was a slob and the people next door were disgusting also and there was a crap ton of roaches that eventually infested my ps4 , a year later he kicked her out and the people next door left . Knew that there was a shit ton living in my ps4 so I left lures to kill them all , after I stopped seeing them running around after a few weeks I decided to get a electrical tool set and to open and clean it out . My god was it disgusting , fan and heat sinks were clogged with shit and dead roaches I'm surprised it didn't blow up and was able to clean it out pretty good , almost ran and looked like new .

This, I'm not diligent at keeping mine clean but whenever I pull it out to clean around it its usually barely got any build up.

 

[YeulEmeralda]

I paid 3000 euro for this thing so yes I dust if off every week.

 

[ssringo]

Just dropping in to say this is a beast at dusting off/out hardware. No need for the stronger variations, this one is plenty powerful if needed.

I lick mine every third day.

2 steps from OCD.

 

[Humdinger]

I've never cleaned the interior of any of my consoles. I'll wipe the outside with a dust cloth occasionally, but that's it.

Clean house, no pets, non smokers. Systems are not near the floor. I barely need to clean my systems just use a swifter dust wand to dust it off occasionally.
