For one user, games on the PC keep crashing. Two years later, he opened his computer and realized he should have done it much sooner.
A player reported that his games keep crashing. In another post, he explained that he hadn’t unlocked his computer in years and did now.
He also posts a picture showing the entire “horror” from his computer. Many in the community are a little underwhelmed by what a PC can look like.
The gaming computer is completely dirty even though it was on the table
How can a computer get so dirty? The community initially assumed that the heavy pollution might have been due to the fact that the owner had placed his computer on a carpet or similar floor. But he explained that his computer was on the table the whole time.
He would regularly clean the same room, but it never occurred to him to clean the corner of his computer.
In hindsight, he feels kind of an idiot because he never thought of that. Other gamers are also facing similar issues because they don’t want to clean their gaming PC for years.
Here’s a related Reddit thread:
Why should you clean your computer regularly? Dirt and dust clog the air access paths or your fans. This then ensures that some components or components are not able to dissipate heat properly and thus heat up excessively.
The processor and graphics card then reduce performance to deal with heat or emergency shutdown to protect components. This makes your computer slower and slower.
Even the “greatest gamer” and YouTube streamer, Dr Disrespect, has been in big trouble because he hasn’t wanted to clean his computer for a long time.
And by the way, pollution can never be completely avoided. Ventilation causes particles to enter the home and furniture and clothes also lose small particles. Human skin loses skin flakes and hair, which also causes dust to form. By using a good dust filter or housing you can at least reduce contamination.
When games crash, there can be various reasons
Why do games crash?
- The games are poorly optimized and can’t handle your hardware.
- Your graphics card drivers are hopelessly outdated and causing the game to crash.
- You have temperature problems in your computer, which also affects performance
- Hardware defects can also cause malfunctions.
What can I do against it? At best, you should first check Reddit or Steam to see if other players are reporting similar issues when your game crashes. If this is indeed the game, you will have to wait for the patch or lower your graphics settings. This can often work wonders.
However, if you are the only one having issues, you should check your drivers and hardware. Your device might be overheating or a component might be damaged or even broken.
When examining your graphics card, pay attention to the following information that may indicate a malfunction:
