Every time I start up my computer, it makes one hell of a horrible, extremely loud noise..

Hear it for yourself:

*Make sure you turn your speakers up a little.

So I decided to take the covers off and have a look to see how bad the dust situation is..

And my god, all of the fans are full of shit, especially the Power Supply.
Now I'm not about to go out and buy a new power supply, is pointless when I want to get a completely new computer anyway.
But we just have to hope that the power supply doesn't shit it's self in the meantime..

Some pictahs for you to looksies at, lmao..

lol that's not even that bad too be honest. Normally every 6-12 months I take apart my main rig completely and throw the cast into the bathtub and just spray it off with the shower nozzle. The fans I also spray with water but make sure it's only on the fan itself and not the motor. Finally for any fan that makes too much noise I also add some oil to help it a bit.

Ahh getting down and dirty. A rarity with computers but fun when it happens.
