Just don't set it higher than 3 bar or you risk blowing shit off your mobo

Blasting water vapor into ICs is kind of a bad idea.

Yes. Buy more canned air that freezes up before you even have the dust out of one heatsink.

Fuck outta here

i never clean my rig
>>
I have a 6hp rig vacuum/blower I bought to detail my truck that I user sometimes
With the right nozzle it's compressed air tenfold
>>
>>53829747
can't argue that at all. the bitch gets pretty warm too

>>53829821
anon, if you clean your shit more than twice a year it pays for itself over canned air. faster if you have multiple electronics you clean
>>
I get free cans of air from work.
>>
>rig

Buy I do, anon.
I use a compressor like pic related. I own that tool since 1994 and I always used it twice to three times a year on all my systems since my Pentium 100mhz.
Perfect cleans, never EVER an issue. Also is a godsend for every detail cleaning you need, from car to guns to dusted old things. One of the best thing to own around the house.
>>
>>53828370
I'm not seeing anything close to heavy duty in your picture, anon.
>>
Been cleaning my computers with 10bar of compressor air for years and nothing ever broke. What the shit are you guys talking about?

Also, no water separator used.
>>
>>53830120
This, everyone else in here is paranoid for no reason.

I just blow on it.

I clean computers for a living and use a compressor.
>>
>>53830065
I use one very similar myself for my own gear and cleaning out the filthy machines I get through my repair business. Never had an issue.

Only using a pretty big compressor I otherwise use for tire mounting. But it can't compete to this :^(

>>53830348
i'm trying to talk my boss into getting a single screw-style compressor over the two piston driven units we have now but he refuses to bite
>>
>>53830442
What do you work as?
>>
>>53830472
collision repair (trained as a mechanic but really hated it)
>>
>>53830519
Must be great having a job like this. You probably make a ton of money fixing other people's cars in private.
>>
>>53830619
about $800/week average take-home. some weeks are better, some a lot worse (that's flat rate for ya). the painter at my shop is on track to make over 125k this year. that's where the real money is (aside from owning the place). the problem is you go home tired and dusty as fuck (oh god the dust) and all you want to do is get a shower, eat, then go to bed. you get to sleep on a pile of money tho, so there's that
>>
>>53830779
I finished an apprenticeship as sheet metal worker so I can definitely relate to the dust topic. It's not fun blowing your nose at the end of the day and the tissue is black (or in your case probably yellow from kit)


I wish I learned mechanic or painter. There's so much black money in that business.
>>
>>53830866
Auto body is just sheet metal so your skills would transfer. Do that for a couple years, tell them you want to train as a prepper, do that for another couple years, then move up to being a painter and collect fat stacks. You can do it anon
>>
>>53828387
Look at this uneducated moron.
>>
>>53830138
They're just parroting "expert" opinions on the internet.
