Jonszo z20 , notice temps cool 4-8 lower when both cases are unlocked. I’m worrying about dust, bottom and sides have dust filter but idk if it’s enough, has anyone tried this?

Btw you may notice a temp improvement of you reverse the rear fans and cpu fans to pull cool air in from the back.

I run an open air setup right now, and have in the past as well without issues. Dust isn't as big a deal as you think. Just blow it off with compressed air periodically

Okay cool, How often do you clean it? And did you notice temp diff?

Like... once every 6 months? This will depend a lot on how dusty your environment is in general. Never noticed a temp difference, it's just unsightly

Flip the top exhaust fan next to the psu to intake and you have an air cooled setup as good as they get.
