I sometimes look away from the monitor to my PC and use it as something to look at as I think. But I do look at my PC a good amount IMO.

why no side pannel? that will actually hurt cooling unless you have horrible airflow

I just take it off when I start it. Well first when it was under my computer in a surrounded place the GPU was getting like around 83C while under a heavy load. And its a small case so almost everything is together. I want to upgrade my CPU fan but if I do that then theres even less room for air to move.

Mine has a better PSU and a better GPU and cable managment but its basically the same. The GPU reaches the HDD.

You could upgrade the cpu cooler to a small tower cooler which would help it alot. Something like this should fit http://goo.gl/z6wnnS it can even have push pull if you wish. If its to tall I believe they also make a variant that uses a 80mm fan. another thing that would help a bunch is a fan in the front if there is a place to mount one. drawin cool air in helps a bunch. As for your GPU temp thats fine and is nothing to be worried about in the least.

For as long as it takes me to clean out the dust as I have a laptop.

My desktop is on the floor with no window, so alot of the time i would open the side panel, sit on the ground and stare into it. I also touch backplates and heatsinks of my video card, sound card, cpu, ram and feel the airflow in my case. I'm prob nuts.

I have a Midi R2 but the window is facing the wall (no other place to put the case atm) so I only look inside If I need to go inside of it, which isn't often.

i like to look in the side panel from time to time, just because i get entranced by the blue LEDs.

Once every 3 months, either when something breaks or when it needs to be blown out.

So many things I could write here... things like this.
