CCleaner, Malwarebytes and at least two temp monitoring programs (HWMonitor, Speccy, RealTemp, etc). Electronic and physical cleaning on a regular schedule - I still take apart my 2013 machine once a month to clean all the filters and make sure there are no dust-bunny colonies. (Making certain to clean the PSU filter underneath that sometimes gets over looked by even the most fastidious users.)
I'm certain other folks'll pop in with suggestions, but those are mine. Cheers! |
