Hi tom's hardware, i failed to describe my request in my last post so i will try again.
I'm looking for a guide on proper cleaning methods of my PC components like, PSU, GPU,CPU, case fans, Motherboard slots, anything that needs routine cleaning to help things last longer and perform as the first day bought.

I'm on windows 10, I was asked to say what component is malfunctioning and I might have a GPU issue but I don't know if it is related to it being dirty so my question: Is there a guide on cleaning each individual PC component?

Like a guide that talks about cleaning Motherboard slots( if even necessary) or GPU vram modules with alcohol versus not because it is not necessary as dust doesn't negatively affect that component.

what i'm trying to say is a guide that an expert made not just people who this worked for them but might no work for me, at least getting the obvious thing to do on paper and the 'this might work for you or not' on a separate page, because I have done my research on it but i really don't like that there are many people who claim this way or another way of doing it specially when they contradict, I need people who agree at least on something, I am very confused as I wholly trust the experts not just any way and i need to clean this PC and keep it clean. I hope i made more sense, if i didn't please direct me to another forum where you think i can make more sense.
Thank you
 
I think its for every praise that you are so dedicated to this. Im not sure why this question, but what I do know is that that kind of cleaning the components can be found in very few computer repair shops, majority of people dont share their knowledge easily, the ones that do know, have earned it the hard way. Many of them have not made such a detailed text about it. (I say many because there are people who are different in their practice and job performance).
I can tell you what one IT officer told me when I got to work in one company, just blow it with vacuum cleaner (not vacuuming, but reversing to blow) or you can just buy that spray for computers.
Good luck.
