  • It is INCREDIBLY important to keep your PC clean. Dust build up is the leading cause to PC death. Dust can become conductive which can lead to bigger issues. KEEP YOUR PC CLEAN! In this video it is suspected that the dust may have been causing the internal circuit protection in the PSU to fault which is why it would randomly shut off, and in my case, wouldn't turn on at all.

      Back almost 18 years ago I used to hang out at a Computer Renaissance looking at the stuff they'd get in and see if anything looked interesting. Once I was looking at the rigs they'd had in for repair or diagnosis, and saw one where power supply and everything else was caked in that brown gunk... First time I ever saw that and it was disgusting. The shop refused to do anything about it either -- basically said the hourly cost of trying to clean all of that out and ensure it would run was going to exceed the value of the machine.

  • @mygetrichslowplan
    @mygetrichslowplan 7 лет назад +303

    You sort of mentioned it, although not explicitly, but this computer was this filthy because the owner is a smoker. I've cleaned out a lot of used computers and computers for family and friends, and this PC had two strong indicators that it lived with a smoker: A) The dust on the radiator was clearly a brownish color, not grey, and B) The yellowing on that white 200mm fan. I wouldn't be surprised to find out this PC reeked of cigarette smoke.
    I'm not one to judge people for smoking, that's their business, but it does go to show that PC owners who smoke need to take extra care if they want to protect the longevity of their PCs.

      @mygetrichslowplan 7 лет назад +23

      JayzTwoCents Really, hmmm, in that case I stand corrected. I've seen incredibly similar symptoms in smoker's computers, but never in a non smoker's. I guess you learn something new every day.

    • @mygetrichslowplan
      @mygetrichslowplan 7 лет назад +1

      Cameron Shelgren Yes, but dog hair doesn't cause yellow/brown gunk to build up on fans and radiators and turn white fans yellow. Those are typically seen in smoke damaged electronics. Jay has stated this man is not a smoker, so I'm not sure what caused that.

    • @cmusic52
      @cmusic52 7 лет назад +2

      another possible cause is if the PC was on carpet and say the dog had an accident near it, that can also have an effect on the color of the dust or if its near a washroom and he works around a lot of topsoil that's very dark

      JayzTwoCents Hi!
      I need some help, my CPU seems to be overheating. It will be in the 40/50c area when web browsing. I know I need new thermal paste because not to long ago it got in the 90 area and I pushed the fan down to keep the CPU cool and now it's fine. I have stock fan. My computer, i5-4590, msi r9 380, 8 gb ram. I also want to ask if I need 3 fans. I have 2 outtake ones and that's it. I would of put at least one intake fan but I only have 2 fan headers. Also when I play something like over watch it goes in the 60s.
      Thanks in advance!

    My brother Rob who built several PCs for me has always instructed me to keep the inside of my computer clean but didn’t follow his advice. I never considered dust a serious threat until today when I realized thanks to your video (and my brothers urging to look inside the machine) that it’s the reason it has been shutting down every 30 minutes or so. I have needed to reset the power switch every time. Thoroughly cleaning it inside and out, pretty sure that’s going to fix the problem. It was shutting down when the CPU hit more than 80°C.

    I have an old CM SickleFlow fan that was slowing down and making grinding sounds similar to those 200mm fans and I fixed it by just putting some lubricant (don't use WD-40, that's a solvent which will eat plastic) into the center of the fan and spinning it by hand for a few minutes to get it to seep into the sleeve bearing.

    As long as you have dust filters and keep a positive pressure inside of your case, dust isn't really much of an issue. My computer has been running for years and all I ever have to clean is my dust filter. All computers should have dust filters. I don't understand why it's not a standard feature nowadays.

    Thank you for this. I live in a room that has SO MUCH dust. I have been trying to clean out my PC often, but sometimes I forget. This video told me that I am pretty damn smart, lol. I figured this was the issue because the fan in the power supply begins to sound crappy. I have taken it out and opened it up to clean it out twice now since I started having this problem. Common sense told me to try it since Id noticed how much dust is created in this room we have now been in for over a year. Mine starts with shutting down when I start my game of choice, The Sims 4, so when you mentioned the game, I knew this was the video to watch.

    That's why I loved the demciflex filter set I brought for my cooler master haf 932 advanced case, I literally just opened it up every 6 months and apart from a slight layer of dust that built up at the bottom of the case all the components were clear. So many people moaned about the price of demciflex filters but as the saying goes, you get what you pay for & those demciflex filters were superb & worth the money & fitting them hardly changed temps of components inside the case.
    Was a sad day to see that case go but I needed a smaller one that I could fit on the new desk I got so I'm now using the cooler master H500M which has filters, I'll see how well they work compared to the demciflex I was using on the old case.

    *I'd like to see a video regarding optimising settings for consistent performance in games*
    PC gaming is great, but the one annoying thing is not knowing what is causing fps dips or performance issues when a game moves from one area to the next. Consoles are always consistent, the nature of PC games allows you to have better performance at the start of a game than at the middle or end of a game, even a built in benchmark is not accurate for what your settings should be.

    A few things you should do if your PC is having issues:
    - Make sure your Graphics card drivers are up to date
    - Make sure you didn't accidently messup something while in the Bios
    - If you have previously installed a component, put that as the #1 reason (possibly)
    - If you recently installed a new GPU or CPU, check online to make sure you're in the safe zone for wattage, since there will be problems if the wattage goes over.
    - Check all connectors to see if they're loose
    - And as this video shows, CLEAN YOUR DAMN PC!

    I'd rather see you pull the dust off the radiator, etc., with a vac rather than blowing it into fins and crevices.

    from direct contact with your equipment.

      HighsNBurgers I agree. I'd vacuum the worst of the stuff off first. Then probably unscrew the rad and blow it through so I don't contaminate the rest of the case.

      Yes, a vacuum can generate static but I've never had a problem (I have literally just cleaned mine again and surprise surprise it is still working!), I use it with the brush attachment and NOT directly onto components, more for inside the case/backplates/PSU/fans etc to get the worst off (I use air can to loosen dirt on mobo and sensitive stuff and blow it at the vacuum nozzle, thus catching the dust rather than distributing it throughout the case). You could argue it's just as bad to be spraying moisture and chemicals onto your mobo with an air can or blasting dust further into the cracks with with an air duster...

    Part of me wants to laugh that you considered that to be a dirty case. I have seen them where the dust is best described as a blanket. Now those are dirty systems.

      I looked at a computer at a farmhouse with cats. Opened the case a found a blanket of cat hair... There was no open space inside at all. There's your problem!

    I bought a Cyberpower computer from Best Buy, and I experienced a "go to black screen" fan revs, had to turn it off. Finally, I turned it on, and before it even went to the Bios, it gave me a warning "Your PCIe graphics card is not connected". So I took the cover off, pushed it in, and haven't had a problem since.

    My desktop has turned of twice today. Only thing I have done is taken off a side panel and that might have disturbed the airflow. Its dirty, I mean real dirty inside, I've 2 huskies and the box is on the floor. 5 years worth. Its getting a good clean as I'm putting in a video card in a couple of days.

    I just had the same issue. My computer started just restarting during games. I tested my RAM and CPU and both tested fine. I keep my
    Computer clean so it didn’t seem bad but I replaced he psu and it solved the problem. Once I took it out it was a lot dirtier than I thought. I didn’t go back and retest it since my new psu was a better one anyway. I also have one of those canless air blowers. They rock!
