Why do the Fans collect the most dust ???

Can't let these inaccurate judgments go .
"""it's the same dust you'd have sticking to some other CPU or video card,
and
cleaning it off is, amazingly, the same process too."""

Wrong there.
My older Radeon 9800 & the CPU fans are of a very different shape / design
to
the Geforce 8800 therefor the type & quantity of Dust collected is different
...
They are certainly different in shape to need very different methods to
clean them..
The Radeon 9800 fan I clean by pressing an large damp cloth on it to lift
dust of.
The Pentium 4 Fan can be cleaned by poking around with the brush you
mention.
The Geforce 8800 will not have any of those & must be opened & blown at.
All very different.

I've just realized that the fan clips onto the Heatsink assembly of the CPU
cooler
& I will be able to easily unclip that & push something into the coolers
plates to
clean it fairly (little prayer) simply...
Mr. Kony did think o that did he !! (Triumph !)..
ANYWAYs I've decided its all about FLUFF rather than dust .
Which could explain my original question as to why all the other surfaces do
not collect
much by comparison to the Fans.
I greatly (sic) admire the supremely confident way that nice My Kony opens ,
disassembles ,
& cleans his Comp. with no wear or damage or effort even....I wish I was so
able.

So what? Cleaning dust is not exactly rocket science.

Get over it, or pay someone to do it for you.
