I've read that distilled water actually works better with lower risk of shorts.

Ngl rubbing alcohol on electronics makes me nervous. A drop could drip somewhere it shouldn't and short something out. I usually just use compressed air for dust buildup, less risky.

Compressed air only for dust buildup? That's wild to me lmao. I've cleaned so many GPUs and motherboards with 91% isopropyl and never had an issue.
