    Title says it all. Grab a toothbrush and rip open you're dusty rigs, cuz it's the 18th

    I'm about to do so myself

    No way! I raised my dust bunnies with much love and care and I refuse to destroy them just because some anime girlie called Ashpool says to do it.

    ROFL, I dunno I'd probably do what the anime girlie told me too. Kinda like how Heavy Muscle builders were pink, I mean are you really going to laugh at them?

    Mine stays clean. I ordered a 2 60mm fan filters, although all my 60mm's are exhausts, so it won't really even do anything if I put them on, so I'm leaving them off.

    My case is self-cleaning.

    I would, but I'm too lazy.

    And the fact that I just moved my system over to my new coolermaster a few days ago means it's already pretty clean

    I'm about to do so myself
    This weekend I will work on both rigs. I got some Blue Elect. Tape for Big Blue and I am thinking of rewiring the Lian-Li a little. Compressed Air & Paintbrush Ready for what little dust I have..

    i have an old weakly opened case (due to a bad cooling/airflow & too many components stuffing on it) & i have to dust it several times a week.
