Happy New Year everyone!!!!

It's a new year and I want to have a fresh start by firstly make my gaming PC dust free. So I went through forums and sites just to realize that almost of them requires regular cleaning.

When I say "almost", I still hope you guys can recommend me an exceptional one.

Another alternative is using air purifier, and this Clair (www.go-clair.com) seems to be popular recently, but I'm a bit skeptical.

Please help :/

lock it up in a air tight enviromental controlled plexiglass cabinet !

or moutn the components on a wall panel and let them be free in the air

Electronics attract dust like magnets attract iron. Good luck with your quest.

The best way to achieve dust-free operations is by using positive air pressure. In short, you need a case with more intake fans (front) than exhaust fans (back). As long as the intake fans have filters in front of them, that's the only place where dust will accumulate, and if you keep them clean, you will enjoy many years of virtually dust-free computing. No matter how good these filters are, they always let through a small amount of dust. But it's nothing compared to a non-positive-pressure case!

I'm using a <span class="bold">Fractal Define R4</span>, with two 140mm intake fans (at 5V) and one 140mm exhaust fan (also at 5V). It's a very quiet case, with very good cable management and soundproofing material. Nothing heats up inside this case, and I always have very good temperatures for my Geforce GTX 670, my Intel Core i7 870 and my Western Digital Black. The Fractal Define R4, like many other quality cases, is shipped without a power supply...

Like this? :-p

Dust free PC case? I think it's called a tablet. :)

Wow, it looks awesome! If you're interested in computer modding, take a look at this thread. It's not about a wall-mount PC, but it's also an amazing job! And if you're looking for the ultimate case mod, take a deep breath and check this out!

that second one looks cool but how can you use it with all that visual clutter ?
it just looks cool but its not practical

and here is a pc in mineral oil

Yes, I already saw this thread before. I've never tried anything like that myself... I prefer to stay on the safe side (air cooling or water-cooling). But if I was forced to use a mineral oil case, I'd choose this one.

just air cooling for me
water cooling is bit too much of a risk factor in my opinion

My last two computers were both watercooled. The first one was passively cooled by a Zalman Reserator, the other one was using a Zalman LQ1000 Liquid case. I sold the first one to a friend in 2009, and it's still working perfectly after 10 years (Athlon 64 3400+ and Radeon X800 XT PE in a heavily modded Antec Sonata case, passively cooled by an external Zalman Reserator).

If you know what you're doing, have enough money to spend on good watercooling parts, and have limited knowledge of galvanic corrosion, watercooling can be safe. But right now, I only want to use air cooling... It's a bit less effective, but much more easier to maintain!

To make a pc without dust, I think the general idea is to find a design that has absolutely no moving parts.
Watercooling is a good option, but you could also try various fanless designs.

Be careful with the <span class="bold">Nofan CR-100A</span> cooler! While it's a nice CPU cooler, it's also extremely huge and it usually blocks the first PCI-Express x16 slot on most motherboards. It's supposedly designed for any CPU with a maximum TDP of 100 Watts, but it requires a well-ventilated case. Two smaller versions are also available for weaker processors (the CR-80 and the CR-95), but they also have space issues...

To achieve a complete fanless design, you'll also need a fanless GPU cooler (taking the risk to void the warranty of the graphic card), and a fanless power supply (such as the Seasonic SS-520FL2). If I were you, I'd avoid using any fanless part for a gaming rig, except if you need a good heater for your room! ;-)

I keep all my PC stuff in the same airtight vault that I keep all the jars of my urine in.
