Have you already experienced having an over heated computer?

Yeah, during the summer. It just shut off lol. Mine was because there was too much dust in the vents and airflow was bad. I blew it out with an air compressor.

Same thing happened to me. We have dogs in our place and their fur always gets into the air ways...

well, keep the unit clean, and you should be ok, overheating also means that one of the fans is starting to bye bye or that you liquid flow is at the end :P

I never experience overheating. My air flow is fine for now, my coolers are clean and i don't worry. Even when it is summer it is almost completely cold.

My fan/cooler recently made some noises as I open my computer. Then we saw that it contain lost of dusts and such. Glad I noticed it early.

Yeah. One of my friend's PC's motherboard died after accumulating lots of dust in it. Ever since I knew the guy got a computer, I never knew him on cleaning the stuff until something goes on. Imagine how many dust is accumulated on it for at least 4 years!
