Ive had my computer in my dorm room for a while and its pretty dusty in there and with three intake fans it got really dirty in there. I juat was wondering what would be the best and easiest way to clean it out. I really dont mind taking it apart completely, actually i kind of enjoy it, so really i just need to know what would be safe and good to use to clean everything.

Compressed Air is a really good method of cleaning, else you can use an anti-static cloth.

This would be a wild guess, but I think you'd probably find anti-static cloth in computer hardware shops.

Compressed air works pretty well at cleaning out all the accumulated dust, and it's even better when used in conjunction with an electric fan so that the dust doesn't just hover. Position the fan so that it's blowing at the component you're cleaning, and blowing away from you.

Or instead of a fan, you can use a vacuum cleaner, so all the dust your are blowing out gets sucked in.
