Yup, it's awful. No, I won't check the thermal paste in both of my now out of warranty GPU's (not to mention that I've never done so in my life) because I have no thermal pads. I don't have much thermal paste left either.

How long did that take?

There are RGB fans and then there are dust fans too it seems.

It looks like a leaf blower would have come in handy.

Well, I better clean mine before it looks anything remotely like this.

Since I’m not getting a new gpu, I should prolly replace thermal paste too.

Your pc looks like one of those old geek squad shame pics.

That's an expensive air purifier you got there

Try radiance if you haven't.

I tried to make it a sunday chore to clean out my PC but honestly it's very hard to stick to

I still never got this bad though

I need to clean mine out as well at some point, i already noticed a layer if dust laying on the floor of the case. I think i'm gonna wait a bit longer cause i'm thinking of putting in another ssd while i'm at it.

You got a dirty ass house

Just do it every 5-10 years, who cares? /s

An electric air gun does a great job, and doesn't require you to spend money on purified air cans.

This looks like a scene from that Naked Now TNG episode, except dirtier.

Does this case have no intake dust filters?

I watched videos from northwestrepair yt channel and he always said that you have to replace the thermal pads with exactly the same width ones to avoid strain on the gpu. That makes me dont want to replace thermal pads
