[Rik]

Did mine the other day, Baz, and found it surprisingly clean.

[Baz]

yeah mines usually not bad but I had to move it a while back due to new furniture and it doesnt have as much air space around it now so I better have a look.



as a side note, got delayed a bit there had to rescue the wife from a spider walking across the floor.

[Rik]

Better than a chicken crossing the road, Baz.

[Baz]

 


anyway joking aside(if thats what Rik calls it)  i'm back,dust free and sounding quiet as a mouse.


had to get in with the vacuum hose and a soft make up brush,not mine BTW, as the can of air was making a cuppa

I only have a laptop that gets dusted daily.

[Rik]

Mine does every time Sue sits on it. 

[adamr8965]

Nice rik.

[Rik]

 

[adamr8965]

Cant sue sit on your desktop aswell?

[Rik]

It is, she says, too hard and angular.

[adamr8965]

ok little to much info.

[Rik]

It's a big black box, with excellent ventilation.

[adamr8965]

Is that due to you passing wind rik?

[Rik]

That tends to empty rooms.

[adamr8965]

Gives your black box air though

[Rik]

Even though it makes its eyes water.

i have been lazy recently and only realised the problem when my cpu was at a toasty 70c when making some compression work.

checked inside and the stock cpu cooler was clogged up - took it off and the thermal cr*p was literally baked =/ dodgy

cleaned it off, got some proper AS mx-2 on it, found my old zalman cooler and wapped it on - temps are now a nice 30c and sticking there 

time for some overclocking tho

[Rik]

I'd expect nothing less from you Sam, now what are you going to do about fixing my machine?
