    PCSPECIALIST Cleaning inside the desktop

    I've got a closed case Fractal Define 7 case but it needs a little clean inside. There was a post on here to a 'vacuum' cleaner, which looked like a mini hair dryer. I can't find the post but does anyone know what it was or recommend something similar to clean inside desktops? Thanks

    Apologies if im being a bit daft here, I've put my queries below: I'd rather stick with the 12700k for a bit of longevity. I switched the graphics card to the RX660 which freed up a few pounds, should i stick with this or go with the nvidia 3060ti? I never realised the windows edition, home is...

    Thanks for your response, I think I'd opt for the Define 7 as i want/need this to be quiet, during the day I'll be on teams so last thing i need is a noisey pc plus its in my living room.

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Why does my new PC sound like a hoover?

    Got my new PC today, first switch on and i noticed it was very noisey. Setup my user settings but it's ridiculously loud so checked the forum and presumed it was my case fan, opened up the case but the noise seems to be coming from the graphics card, it sounds like a hoover. Is there anything...
