I have air filters on each of the intake fans. I use to put my keyboard in the dishwasher on cold run but cant do that anymore since I have wireless now

Now THAT'S smart thinking.  :)   I loved those when I had them ... ages ago. 

I've got too much hardware to maintain - so I do em on an as-needed basis.   Usually every 2-3 months - when a random BSOD tells me to.

Last PC I've cleaned - I busted out a nice mini screwdriver and poked around the heatsink on the CPU.   The fins are so fine, most of the dust crap just gets stuck on top of the fins ( hair, carpet fibers, etc ) - and can be pulled right out.   Got a nice big handful out.

When it's fun-time, I just bring them outside - set em up on a folding table - and reverse a shop-vac on em. 

:)

The cloud of dust is always epic.

i usually get a vacuum to remove the dust from the outside of the case and i wash all the intake fans filters every couple of months or so

the inside of my case i only usually clean once a year, the innards of my computer don't collect much dust

i never clean the insides of my pc - the case is big enough to handle some cm-thick layers of dust :D

You don't clean your CPU's fan at all?
