I took a good look at my computer case for the first time in about a month and half and noticed I had gray circles where my intake fans should be. My question here is how do I clean the interior of my computer safely and should I even attempt to clean the hardware?

Thanks.

can use a can of air to clean the interior of the case & psu. i use a long 1/2" wide bristle paint brush to clean out the fins of the heatsinks & other parts.
