That all depends on you, your cleanliness, smoking habits, cleaning habits, etc.

 

Is your house a dust ball?  Are there smokers present?  Over time you will have issues.  

 

Are you a neat and tidy person who cleans their PC every 6 months?  No issues, likely.

Some white plastics will degrade and yellow over time due to UV, depends if you're rocking a black light or have it exposed to sunlight and then also how intense the sun is where you are.

 

White paint tends to wear well and can't really fade comparatively to colours or dark shades.

Not as badly or as quickly.

 

Lighting does produce some UV and you will probably have some amount of reflected/diffused sunlight.
