After decades in the high precision and electronics industry, I can tell you for sure that compressed air is not seen as a good choice. It blows the dust where it doesn't belong. That may not be a big problem with a cheap PC, but it's not professional at all.
If you want to do it the professional way, go to an ESD protected room, take an ESD vac and an ESD brush, wear your ESD shoes and wrist strap, and clean *carefully*. Compressed air may additionally be used in certain places, but not more.
