September 28, 2007, Newsletter Issue #83: Taking Care of Your CPU

Tip of the Week

The two main problems that a computer user will run into in terms of maintenance is heat and dust. As the CPU is accessed, the temperature within your computer can rise to a level that might damage its components, causing it to not function efficiently or burn out completely.

CPU's have a built in fan and “heat sink” which will help to disperse the heat generated by the CPU and other computer components.

Anyone has seen how dust can coat furniture and windows, now imagine this same layer of dust coating your CPU. Not only will this layer of dust coat everything, but cause some parts of the computer to stop working effectively. This layer of dust can be removed using compressed air sprayed from a can bought at your local computer store.
