Re: Reminder about hot CPUs and dust.

said by HRM See Profile :

Anyone with heat issues (gaming or encoding brings out the worst) don't forget to really clean out the dust bunnies and reseat the CPU first. As a smoker, I know the dust accumulates fast, especially with forced air heat and AC running most of the year, but I forgot how fast. I will try to do it more than once every time I get a BSOD.
This is especially true if you have a dog or a cat. Their hair gets right into a computer.
