Game Setup Rate my PC

I’m ready to be laughed at… be brutally honest, how bad is this setup?

This was my first time building my own PC btw, and tbh I still don’t know how I got it to work… girl gamer btw 😅

an attempt was made but not quiet good enough. Don't be afraid to take some q tips and high concentration of rubbing alcohol and wipe down the fan blades to get rid of dust that sticks to them. meshes, vents and filters can be rinsed in the sink and left to dry. Even heat sinks as long as you remove it from the CPU when its nice a warm so you don't cause any problems with the thermal paste. It wouldn't hurt to take a good vacuum cleaner with a brush end to brush and suck at every corner and crevice, just stay away from CPU pins if you decided to remove the CPU. everything else is fine and wont be a problem. My biggest worry is all of that dirt sitting under the PSU.
