I'm getting tired of buying these Compressed Gas Dusters, is there any air compressor out there that is made specifically for computer cleaning? (Will not damage any components) Thanks for the help.

I dont think there is but I still use my 100 psi compressor fill it to like 50 or less and I blast away.
After 2 years now nothing has been damaged.
I've done it on a variety of motherboard OEM and Enthusiast.

I haven't personally used it, but I see some people recommend it around here.

I just take my tower out to the garage and blow it out with a big compressor, I'm sure any one would due.

I have a little putzy air compressor that was $10 at the flea market that works fine for this purpose around 15 psi.

Haven't killed anything, I wonder how much I've saved in canned air..

Another second on big shop compressor. About 120 psi never hurt my parts that I know of...just don't get super close, you don't need to

Dude I just use my large shop compressor and the appropriate attachment, blows all the dust to the next dimension. Just make sure to test the air on yourself first, make sure it isn't moist.

If you use a compressor make sure you keep the line pressure set below 10psi to avoid moisture from the tank migrating through the line.

I do this on mine and never worry about moisture touching my components.

As I live in a pretty dry area, moist isn't a problem. If some creates inside the compressor's tank, just discharge it from the bottom valve a couple of times and let it refill.

I have cleaned my pc with an air compressor since years, even blasting at 120 psi (8atm), never had a problem, dust went off perfectly.

I just use my Dads compressor. Not sure how powerful it is in numbers but it gets dust out.. that's for sure. ^^

Compressor users be carefull!!
Where I live in the north east the compressor tanks get water from condenstate!!!
If you do notice the water and let it dry before starting your rig, it most likly will be rusty water, that will make some bad stains!!

+1 for air compressers I hate stupid a55 cans of compressed air , if you dont do it right it can blow water. My friend has used his air compresser for yrs ! ( no problems) I take my rigs over to clean em when i can!

Ps i just bought a stupid can the other day for $7 and got it home ( no straw ) arggggggggg

I use a cheap air blower, costed me aprox 20$. It's cheap and chinese, blows hot air and it's very loud, but for removing the dust from your pc it's very nice.
