6. Maintenance
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your ACEMAGIC Tank03 PC, especially its cooling system.
6.1 Cooling System
The Tank03 features a robust cooling system with triple fans and heat pipes to manage thermal output from the CPU, GPU, and DDR memory.

It explains that the CPU heat dissipation uses dual D8 heat pipes, GPU heat dissipation uses 5 D5 heat pipes and a large-axial fan, and DDR heat dissipation increases external airflow by 45%.
- Dust Removal: Regularly clean the air vents and fan grilles to prevent dust buildup, which can impede airflow and lead to overheating. Use compressed air for best results.
- Ventilation: Ensure the PC is placed in a well-ventilated area, away from obstructions that could block airflow.
