    Nice repair. I did a similar one years ago - a soft toothbrush and some 90% IPA got me home on the socket. For bending pins back, a tip that one of my mentors taught me was to use a mechanical pencil with no lead in it - the pin fits perfectly inside of the tip and gives you good control. I've only had to do it twice, but it worked like a champ both times. Cheers!

It was a chunky boy, but it did everything I needed it to do. Was definitely a great value case for what it was at $69.99 USD. I ended up getting rid of it because it just had almost no cable management to work with. Had plenty of cooling though.

    Hey just a tip that I've learned from my own experience. Buy a shopvac that you can dedicate to cleaning out computers. It'll blow clean air, you only need to buy it once, and it doesn't get cold or have the risk of dripping condensation.

      Dont need a shopvac, a datavac electric duster doesn't cost much!

    I find that a paintbrush can get off of loosen dust that's a bit more caked on.

    loved the vid, seeing that looked like my sons pc, though he smokes around his, so it's even grosser to clean, I think I've had to replace his fans 3 times now as he's killed them

    I'd also clean the motherboard heatsinks and put new paste on them. The ones on my 11 year old Gigabyte board (using a Phenom II 965 Black Edition) were loose and when I took one off Gigabyte just used a tiny dab of heatsink compound on them.

    can of air in my area in the US is 6-8$ a can at dollar general. You can get cheaper 3 - 4 packs for like 12-15 some times at Walmart or the like.

    Heh, I know that case, lol. I used it for my mother's desktop in 2010. That PC is still truckin' today, I've updated it here and there, but its still most of its original components I put into it. I've replaced the GPU, as the previous one died, and when I added in an SSD, I cleaned it and re-applied the thermal paste, since it was overdue for that. Its an older Phenom 2 Quad Core in her PC, X955 Black Edition, still trucking today, even with Windows 10.
