At the time I remember feeling a little embarrassed that this was the

Doe should have to do this kind of thing. As computer savvy as I
*thought* I was, I don't think that it should be necessary to open your
machine up every 6 months to spring clean it. Is that naive of me?

Yes, it is. Any piece of electronic gear with active cooling will gather
dust. It's a given. Be prepared to clean it out. Remember also to clean
the vents on the power supply, and check the fans occasionally. I
recently had a fan lock up on a PS, which cooked the PS. On the way
down, the PS took the mobo with it. Take it from the voice of
experience; check for dust and check the fans.
