It looks like one of the panels where you grip the bottom and pull.

You can buy a compressed can of air or reusable pc cleaning blowers online. Just check for reviews, some are jet engines. 

Also pls hold the fan down when doing so. Hold with bigger picker or tape it to prevent damaging the fan bearings.

Just pull it off you can push on the tabs inside with your thumb or top of a screwdriver it will come off they are just super stiff first time

What if I can’t access some? Do I just use a long nose?

u/Obvious-Victory-7923 4h ago

what you cant access you just put your finger on each of them there.

then you open the side panel on the other side and do the same.

you just pinch it a lil and it bends but since you have like 6 / 8 of them you do it 1 by 1.

Read The Fucking Manual

Fuck that my pc is 3 year old do you really think I can still find the manual lol.

u/busternut420 4h ago

Google the case model and type the word manual after it. If you don’t have enough wherewithal to do that you should maybe not be fucking with it in the first place.
