Wow, I was not expecting this to be as biased as this. I had to go back and check the config again. I thought the 2400g was chose because of how cheap it was, not because it was going to be your primary video as well. Both should have been fitted for 1050's for fair reporting. At that point...

Compressed air is sooo much better than soap and water. But, with soap and water, you can't get between the fins. It can be done, but, you can just get a can of compressed air or a cheap 1 to 3 gallon compressor air compressor. (Harbor Freight has them for 44-55 dollars, and yes they are cheaply...

Water and Soap is safe on aluminum and copper. Just make sure you don't let it set in water. You can speed the dry off using a hair dryer. Treat it like you'd treat your hair when you do it though. Hold it a few inches away, and be patient while getting at the cooler from different areas.

Both aluminum and copper are not that reactive to water. You can clean them with water, but you want to dry them off quickly afterwards. A hair dryer can work for this. The problem is actually, if you can't get it with compressed air, water may cause the debris to turn muddy and stick harder. I...

I have a MSI 970 Gaming I like a lot.

I have Kaspersky on my desktop and Avira on my laptop. I like Avira free, but dont like ads. (for their products only mind you.) Kaspersky Free doesn't do that (yet.) Both stop viruses very very well. Avira's scanner is slower. I'd use Avira on the downstairs desktop, but an error after a...

Personally, I think this would be a great gift and just in time for the holiday. Retro SNES design. While a switch would be nice too...

My solution is research and cultural development. Early game, it's easier to get only a small force for protection, followed with explorers. I find developing smaller nations with copious amounts of development exceed the value of massive and stretched out civilizations. Appropriated lands that...
