Hello OC3D Community, Deadloss here....
Having switch from Water cooling to a Water-Cooled Kit (The Awesome Corsair H100) I've gotten a bit lazy when it comes to cleaning my computer.
Switching from a Water cooling, to these close water-kits, it’s very easy to forget to clean them, from all that dust and (excuse my French) “crap” that floats around the room, and conveniently ends up in your computer case.
Having left and forgotten my cleaning duty to my PC, over the past months the build up of dust that the Corsair H100 Radiator collects is astonishing. (Please remember I do live in China and the air here is a little more, let's say ''dusty'' than other places).
I blame Corsair for making their closed Water-Cooled kits so easy to install and offer great performance, that I've fallen into Corsairs standard “Install and Forget”, and that’s exactly what’s happened here.
With that said, with a couple of cloths, a can of compressed air, and a good hour, that dirty radiator looks new once more.
So for all those Water-Cooling-Kit-Fans out there, give your computer some love every now and again, and your computer with love you in return.
NOTE: Considering the amount of dust collected in and around the fans and radiator, the performance of the H100 keeping my Overclocked CPU Cool, was extraordinary.
A couple of pictures below.
