How often should i clean it? I know is a silly question but does it really rise the system temperature if you have dust in the mb? i know it does if you have on the hs but no idea about mb.
thx

it depends on how much intake you have and whether or not you have filters on them. personally, i clean mine around every 3 weeks or so and that's with 100cfm intake and no filters. doesn't really get that dusty in there for me to clean it often.
