    how do you clean out dust from your fans

    I heard you can dissassemble the bottom cover plate and remove the fan out by unscrewing it and using compressed air....

    I also heard you can blow compressed air into the grills at the back and it will force the dust out of the fans...

    hmmm... what do you do?

    Im thinking this is why my notebook get so friggin hot...

    thx

    you mainly just need to remove the bottom panel.

    then you can just use compressed air to flush out the vents once every month or so.

    .... FYI, stop calling it Phantom... that sounds dumb.

    Its just a Clevo D901C.... I sometimes like and dislike some of the re-branded names.
