I recently purchased a computer from a smoker, and while the exterior case was clean and there wasn't much dust inside, once I brought it home, the smell filled my office. I mainly need the motherboard, RAM, CPU, and AIO cooler. What's the best way to clean the motherboard? Can I properly clean the power supply and fans, or should I just get rid of them? Additionally, is there a way to clean the AIO radiator to remove the smoke tar? The case seems to be in bad shape and will probably be thrown away.

One effective way to tackle this issue is by using an ozone generator. I found a video that demonstrates how to use one—just be sure to keep it outdoors. It works wonders and can even help with car interiors!

Totally agree! I’ve tried this on my car too, and it worked like magic.
