By far, the dirtiest computer I have ever cleaned…
Before… the dirt is thick, it is everywhere. I is disgusting and make me cough as I tried to clean it.
This is the back fan. That’s not just dirt. It was almost like it was wet and dirty…
This is the motherboard up close. The CPU was the worst:
I pulled the CPU fan off of the motherboard. Look at the crud. There is no air getting to the CPU.
After some time cleaning… it looks pretty good. Not perfect, but definitely better than when it came in.
This is the PSU and some of the wiring…
This is the after photo… this computer ran 20 degrees cooler once it was fully cleaned.
Have you ever seen such filth? I’m not sure, but after all of this cleaning, the customer had us replace the RAM, CPU, and motherboard….
