Cleaning Dust of GPU
Hey all!
So it's been a while since I last cleaned my GPU. I usually very careful use a vacuum cleaner to get the dust out of the fan. I know this isn't the safest option but nothing has happened yet!
This time I want to do it with a air compressor to try and clean out all the dust without having to dissemble my card.
I have a stock Leadtek GTX 570. My temps idle from 40c and when I'm gaming go to 86c. I did some research and apparently the older cards where designed to run hotter or at least the hotter temps where normal but I still want to make sure and clean it out in case there is a build up of dust.
Mind you it's pretty hot and I am upstairs as well.
Any tips of direction, where to start, where to finish, anything at all is appreciated :)
Thank you :)
