I'm guessing all three caps shouldn't been gobbed together. Great that it works.

Well caps are often done in paralllel to increase capacitance which seems to be the case here. If the other end's traces are connected together then no issue i suppose as it's in parallel

i used to smoke indoors, it was IMPOSSIBLE to keep fans clean. they get that sticky nicotine coating ,the ndust becomes fused to the blades....but once kids, i no longer smoked indoors, which has its perks in other areas, PC being one of them.it sickens me to think thats inside my lungs :eek:

Well your windows won't stay clean if you vape inside...
It's the VG that's getting on your windows, thats why I vape outside...

I have tried it...

jboydgolfer · Sep 19, 2017

imo/ime its just best to avoid indoor combustibles/electronic vaporizers (or better yet, avoid them all together ) :slap:

Judging by the date of the fan (2003), it hasn't been cleaned since then, lol

Cheapo brand Capacitors??

srsly tho, that Biatch is Dirty AF

Bungz · Sep 22, 2017

Genuine teapos, probably fine.

You never wanna see the letters P.O.S inside your power supply

If a power supply can get that dirty and not break it has to be at least halfway decent all joking aside. Built like a tank too

Bungz · Sep 22, 2017

Teapos aren't terrible.

Not the best but not awful.

DR4G00N · Sep 22, 2017

It's a 16 year old IBM Hipro 150W which has probably never been cleaned. Most of the caps are in good shape but the 200V main input caps are bulging a bit. Still works okay from what I can tell though.

yeah, i can tell it was built like it was also intended to be used as a weapon for blunt force trauma.... thats "old school" quality & design there.

At least when it comes to smashing heads, yep.

I got one for you guys. Over a year of nastyness on my keyboard.

So I took the keys off and found the nasty.

Got to cleaning with alcohol wipes and a rag. The result:

Good as new. The little white dot under the spacebar is actually a chip in the metal.

biffzinker · Oct 1, 2017

And here I thought my keyboard was dirty, and I haven't even had it a year.

CAPSLOCKSTUCK · Oct 1, 2017

How do you clean a mouse mat?

Dawn dish soap and water works for me. Thanks for reminding me Caps, I need to clean my mouse pad again.

Edit: You might want to give that mouse pad a good cleaning Caps. It's ready for a soak.

Soak it in dish soap, rinse it, and then throw it into a washing machine with your next load of laundry. I do it once every 6 months for my "genuine" Razer Goliathus, and it's still like new.

That reminds me: it's time to clean my keyboard. I spilled some coffee on it few weeks ago and I think there are some unknown life forms getting formed on it too... :banghead:

CAPSLOCKSTUCK · Oct 1, 2017

I might do my keyboard too.

biffzinker · Oct 1, 2017

As of post #1242 you just cleaned that keyboard. How did the keyboard get so much dirt?

CAPSLOCKSTUCK · Oct 1, 2017

Keyboard to my left

Woodwork to my right

Motorbike racing in the middle
