I am considering purchasing the ThermalTake P5 wall mountable case, however, i was wondering on the effects of having heat dissipated into the wall.

If you mount the P5 on a wall, you will notice that the fans on the radiator push air toward the wall... what kind of problems could I face with that?

I know after a while there will be alot of dust and debris all over that wall, but what other kinds of issues could I face? Constant heat on the drywall cause damage? Since it is wall mounted, is there enough clearance between the case and the wall for air to flow out properly?

Any details on wall mounting cases and issues facing them would be helpfull.

Thanks,
Mike

No, the clearance shouldn't be a large issue, because you can also use the case "lying down" and it's built in pegs provide enough room for airflow, that I imagine would still be how you'd mount it on the wall.

Heat coming off one of those huge radiators will actually be pretty small, as they're very good at defusing the heat.
