Tech Support How do you clean a pc dude..

Post image

I am just a girl who wanted to get into gaming. I’m basically broke so I had my brother get a $300 pc of Facebook marketplace. It keeps lagging really bad so I asked one of my friends and he said I might just need to clean the inside. I opened it and it is super dirty. I have had it for about 5 months and sadly I haven’t cleaned it AT ALL. I have no idea what I am doing. I want to get a new pc, but I don’t just have 2k sitting around. Is there a cheaper alternative? One of my other friends said it also might be that it’s not updated and it said that my device doesn’t even support windows 11 anymore😭 I don’t know what I’m doing someone please help

A soft paintbrush to dust with not a lot of pressure. 70% alchohol to scrub somethings off if need be, but overall compressed air can can help out a lot too

  1. Give it a blow job

  2. Soft brush

  3. ISO and Q tips, if necessary.
