    Question Replacing Tempered Glass side panel with customized cardboard side panel for better airflow.

    there is the PSU and also there are 2HDDs (the HDD slot is there).. the hot air will directly be released on them.. So I am not planning to go with that.. ( Specially don't want to bother the PSU and the HDDs because there is very less escape route for the hot air)
