- Got some PC parts for a steal of a deal. When I went to check them out I found evidence of roaches! Watch how I cleaned these parts and find out if they still work!

I like getting dirty computers. sometimes you can get it for a little less. There is one time i bought a pc case. guy threw in motherboard and ram stick and wifi card. got it home. there was all that weird gunk on it... turned out to be roach "stuff". cleaned it.. motherboard didnt work, but rest did. luckily i was going to paint the case. started to take it all apart, drilling out rivets... there was dead roaches all in it. so.. had to clean all that out and then paint it. now it looking good!
Thanks for the video! Was wondering about cleaning these just the other day.
I grew up out in the country, house was surrounded by pine trees which is a breeding ground for roaches. It's sooooo hard to get rid of them, but for me there's two smells in my top ten list that i absolutely can't stand, the first and second being battery corrosion on my hands and roach s*&t....especially if it's heated up by electrical components. I will dead ass turn around and walk right back out of someone's house if i smell it.
Man it sucks someone moved in about a month or two ago and brought them into our complex. And now my computer
I would just do the same thing you did, but I would have checked the inside of the case outside the house. If it was going to be worth it, it was going to be worth it, but if it didn't, it didn't. You got your $20.00 back and some free ram that works.
Have same problem
im not familiar with this problem, do we even get roaches in the uk? but surely you could only get this having the pc close to the outdoors like in the downstairs kitchen or conservatory or is it litteraly in any room of the house?
your dead right i bought a comp from a garage sale bought it inside opened it up and little tiny roaches run out everywere they had a nest in the psu. after that i had to get the company called flick to come out and spray the house.
Ahh yes, the joys of buying PC components w/cash $$....
Roach inside pc: Dies, yet the pc still works miraculously.
yo your the reason I have a pc I have a m72p thinkcentre thats case swapped
What the motherboard type is?
I would have cleaned it, for sure, to give it all a shot. You chuck and or destroy that dead stick or try to file for a warranty claim on it? What was the make?
Don't resell cockroach infested parts to anyone people ok?. Even if it's cleaned.
I would love to see an eBay shop of yours if your care to attention is this well, I can relate.
hard to know if i vould take it i live in sweden and we dont have that problem but free stuff is always free stuff :-D got a free mainbord with a intel i5 760 and 8gb of ram and earlier i also got a i7 920 with main board 12gb of ram just plug it in and it worked :D
I'd use dish soap and water for first pass clean. Followed by 91% alcohol to remove water and set in sun out watch and movie then test it but yeah never bring anyone electronics into house with opening it especially game consoles like playstation 3's and 4's. They are by far the worst roach motels out there and cleaning them thoroughly is essential and may fix many systems just by removing dust hair and bugs. Always replace the thermal solution such as paste and defective pads so fixed 2 ps3 and 1 ps4 by just cleaning it.
Did the computer belong to Cheech and Chong?
Think it was a German or American?
I would gladly take that i7 off your hands right now
