compressed air

hold the fan in place and spray in short bursts

>>55901204
Take heatsink, dismount fan, clean the heatsink and the fan in a sink with shampoo, dry both with a hair dryer and oil the fan. Works like a charm.

>>55901204
take compressor and spray until the fan bearings gets destroyed

Not OP but how you even clean the heatsink (NOT THE FAN) of this shit? Compressed air literally does nothing dust is stuck on the heatsink fins.

>and oil the fan

>>55901327
sink in iso alcohol

>>55901490
How bad is it to use ethyl alcohol?

>>55901470
You HAVE to

>>55901470
The oil wears out and absorbs all the disgusting tar shit at the same time. It's like glue by that point.

>>55901327
Take off the fan and wash it, you dingus. Make sure it's 1000% dry before putting it back.

>look in trash near some offices
>replace stock cooler with another one
you can even ask someone if you feel like interacting with another human. people will just give you stock coolers.

Oiling it after having washed it with water is a good idea IMO.

>>55901204
I appreciate the pun OP

>>55903908

Wat oil is gud tho? Would sewing machine oil suffice?

Disassemble and sink parts in alcohol. Obvi not the ones that cant be

>>55904042
Yea

>>55904042
>sewing machine oil
Perfect for that purpose

>put da part back, plug it.
you should be able to solve this anon.

>water = rust + conductivity.
don't get the coils wet you dumb plebs

>>55901204
I'd take it off and dust it outside
It probably could use thermal paste anyway

>>55901204
disassemble and soak in coke

>>55901260
Won't the dust particles create much static there?

>>55901204
take it to the carwash, hose it out with a high pressure sprayer, then let it sit in the hot sun for a couple of days before plugging it back in

>>55901204
throw it in the trash and go buy a new one
