4. Întreținere
Întreținerea regulată ajută la asigurarea performanței optime și a longevității componentelor PC-ului.
4.1 Curățarea filtrului de praf
The Tower 900 is equipped with magnetic dust filters on various intake points. These filters should be cleaned regularly (e.g., monthly in a living area) to prevent dust buildup inside the chassis, which can impede airflow and cooling efficiency.
Figure 7: Various magnetic dust filters included with the chassis for easy removal and cleaning.
- Gently remove the magnetic dust filters from their respective locations.
- Clean the filters using compressed air or by rinsing them with water. Ensure they are completely dry before reattaching.
4.2 Îngrijirea panoului de sticlă securizată
Clean the tempered glass panels with a soft, lint-free cloth and a glass cleaner. Avoid abrasive materials that could scratch the surface.
4.3 Curățarea interioară
Periodically, use compressed air to remove dust from internal components such as fans, heatsinks, and graphics cards. Ensure the system is powered off and unplugged before performing internal cleaning.
5. Depanare
Această secțiune abordează problemele frecvente care pot apărea în timpul sau după asamblarea PC-ului.
5.1 System Does Not Power On
- Verify that the power cable is securely connected to both the PSU and the wall outlet.
- Ensure the PSU's power switch is in the "ON" position.
- Verificați toate conexiunile interne de alimentare, în special cablurile de alimentare ATX cu 24 de pini și CPU cu 8 pini către placa de bază.

5.2 Zgomot excesiv
- Identify the source of the noise (e.g., fan, HDD).
- Ensure all fans are securely mounted and free from obstructions.
- Check for loose cables or components that might be vibrating against the chassis.
- If using HDDs, ensure they are properly secured in their drive bays to minimize vibration.
5.3 Poor Cooling Performance
- Curățați toate filtrele de praf și componentele interne așa cum este descris în secțiunea Întreținere.
- Verify that all fans are spinning and oriented correctly for optimal airflow (intake/exhaust).
- Ensure radiators are not obstructed and have adequate airflow.
- For liquid cooling systems, check pump operation and coolant levels.
