PC Case Open or Closed for Performance?

Static from vacuum isn't any more than static from somewhere else. And static is only dangeroud to open CPU socket or some other sockets. If you want to scare people away from vacuum, go with the fact that one could push, knock or twist some knob, wire or switch and have 2-5 hours of troubleshooting afterwards.

I've had panel open in one previous system. Temps were better, about 7C at most and noise wasn't really that different. This was with really old case, one without intake fan and 0 noise blocking materials. If you have case with decent airflow, having panel open won't do wonders for cooling. Its too situation-depending if you gain 3C (within margin of error) or over 5C.
