After a year of not opening my PC case.I finally decided to crack open the tomb of the forgotten and see how dirty it is inside.
I spent almost 2 hours clearing out most of the dust bunnies inside.Took out enough to fill a landfill.
Pic below is after the last try,this was about 10% of the dust still left in the case,I removed the other 90%.
Go ahead and post pics of your dust bunny tombs within your most prized PC.

Working as a young techy, a lady once bought in her PC.
She lived on a farm.
I dunno wtf kind of crap lives in her house, but the insides of the case was PLASTERED with a thick, goo-y substance - consisting of about 90% FLAMING FERRARI RED hairs about 2cm in length.
The smell...
OH MY DEAR GOD THE SMEEEEELLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My aerocool looks exactly the same inside, (minus the dirt), maybe they both just use the same overall chassis.

Thick gooy probably tar from cigarettes, worked on a few pcs of heavy heavy smokers and the inside was normally coated in a thicky smelly substance.
Wait till you work on one that is infested with cockroaches that was fun, I ended up turfing the powersupply.

I once opened a case from a client (petrol station) where they were doing construction work in the office. I swear you couldn't see the circuitry under the dust.
btw, good way to clean it out is to put your face really close and blow really hard :cool:

I HATE working on smokers PC's.. It stinks so bad. Roaches are fun as well. Spiders too. Once found a whole nest inside a PC. When I opened it the baby spiders ran everywhere. Doom and a computer doesn't mix.
I work as a techie, some of the PC's I've had to work on:
