Yup. The major concerns are the high power components and their cooling path. Figure out what that path is, and make sure that there's good air flow. Do your major cleaning there. Pay the same attention to the power supply. I tend to do most of my cleaning with a vacuum cleaner with a small nozzle. As to the chips -- don't do this during the winter, when there is a lot of static. Wait for summer.
