My ddr dimm's184 pins & slot must be cleaned every week

[TE Chea]

with alcohol & cotton bud, or dimm will jam. Casing's air
intake already has filter paper / sponge. Is this dust caused
by static electricity ? Any1 here has this dust problem ?

Dust, I need to dig out dust caught by my nose's wax, every
day. Here in msia, govnmnt allows open burning, air is not
as clean as in e.g. Sydney ( australia ), even when no smoke
comes fr Indonesia.

I live in the same country like you but never had the problem like
yours with all the PCs I ownwd. If my PC developes such a problem I
would either 1) change the memory slot socket 2) change the dimm in
question or 3) change the Main board to solve the problem completely.

I once found that the CPU had collected so much dust that the CPU
stoped functioning after 1 or 2 hours. FYI I didnt install any air
filter in the PSU or CPU fans.

Unless the dust is adhesive, it can be kept from accumulating
by rotating your computer so the sockets face DOWN.
But really, your CD drive and other parts can't tolerate much dust;
have you considered an environmental filter (like adding
a HEPA or electrostatic filter to a forced-air building heating
system)?

Clearly your casing's air intake could use better particle filters,
and there are some sticky spray-on coatings that could
enhance the 'sponge'.
