Ok, I'm a strong believer of salvaging and using what you have unless you 'need' better, so...
I'm Rebuilding a system using various old parts and my first Atx case. The case has a fan in front, no vents on the sides and was designed for the psu to be the rear fan. When I used it last it would get so warm in the summers that I'd leave the case shell off.
Since I'm modding the case, I was wondering if it is dangerous to use "fabric mesh cloth" instead of the metal shell? Would static be an issue even if nothing is expected to rub against it? Or possible cloth dust? Should I use a "plastic mesh"? I've seen the Antec Skeleton, so some sort pf mesh is better than nothing right?
