Open air or case?

[SzaboAttila]

Hello guys, what do you think about a pc that has no case? I mean it has but its not covered like the Thermaltake core p5, is it bad for every day use? Can the dust easily build up in the components? Thermals are bad? Thanks for the replies in advance

If you mean a test-bench, then it's good for everyday use if you don't mind the hazards of things falling on it

Not like a test-bench, like for everyday use, I want to mount it on the wall

Thermals will be great, as for dust buildup it really depends on the environment; every house is different.

It will be fine but depending on your environment, if you live in a dusty place (desert for example) then yes it will get dusty very easily. But as long as nothing else will touch it (people, animals, something falling on it or hitting it like a kid's thrown toy) then it should be okay. I'd still recommend an enclosure or something like the Core P5 just to have something blocking "DIRECT ATTACKS" against your battle station.
