Whats the worst that could happen?

Whats the worst that could happen if I ran the system like this longterm? (I was having a heck of a time with it earlier today and it was easier to just remove everything from the case while troubleshooting.

I get better airflow than with anycase I can think of thanks to the 700mm fan on onside. Once I get a jumper or a old PW switch I can move my case off the desk and place the mother board inbetween the fan and the heap dust filter. Overall the system is quiter at night since the only fan that is audible is the CPU fan compared to the 2x 120mm that were noticably louder (although still relatively quiet). So, again, whats the worst that could happen?

It's dangerous. You could get an electric shock or start a fire or fry some parts, or all of the above. All it takes is a spilled drink or a finger in the wrong place or a curious pet or child.
