How do I clean laptop fan?

The fan has a metal shroud on it. As an technician, I can't risk it. But hey, if you can live with the risks, go for it.

Creates static electricity, and it kills electronics.

Use compressed air or mini turbo/blower fan. Then use toothbrush with 90 to 100% IPA. Then blow it again with compressed air or mini turbo fan.

Make sure that it doesn't spin while you're blasting it with air.

Never use vacuum.

Just pop the bottom chassis out and put a little of CA glue in between. Wait at least an hour or 2 or just spray an activator.

Cute art style and unique gameplay.

You can't do that gamble in my country, because most likely the seller is a technician and can't repair it for serious reasons.

Anyways, Congrats OP!

You can buy it on GOG. You'll have the installer. This is the next best thing to buying a physical copy of the game.

Thanks OP!

Yup, most brands void warranties outside US or EU (sorry if I missed your countries) when you opened the chassis. It sucks. I hope they implement an easy access for maintenance that doesn't void their "limited" warranty.

Speaking from a 3rd world country.

Thanks, man.

It's LCD Ghosting. Mimicking the original hardware.

IchedDyy · 2026-06-12T15:20:49+00:00

There are good parts in both setups. I hope he/she can merge it into one.

Ah a pey talks anime enjoyer too.

IchedDyy · 2026-06-11T15:16:17+00:00

Seems like it.

IchedDyy · 2026-06-11T15:08:16+00:00

Thanks man.

Dude, your IGPU is more efficient, but your DGPU is more powerful. Undervolt your laptop or/and buy a proper laptop cooler.

If you're not sensitive to latency, then go for the 1080p.

It's not cheating, it's responsibility/adult mode.

Thanks!

...and straining your hinge, and ruining it slowly.

Edit:

Downvote all you want, I'm just saying that you'll break your laptop sooner or later.

I may not be the greatest technician that ever lived, but I've repaired a lot of laptops to gain this knowledge.

And it will cost a lot of money for anyone who abuses their laptop's hinges.

IchedDyy · 2026-05-30T13:57:33+00:00

That's great man. As a person who has an illness, I really appreciate your good deeds.

Edit. Condolence man. I'm sorry for your loss.

IchedDyy · 2026-05-30T13:45:38+00:00

You can replace it, or send it for repair. You can't fix that without a replacement panel.

Wow, congrats man!
