I would say that quite the opposite, unless you have an enclosed case. An airflow helps to keep most dust away. But I would love to have a PC within an aquarium filled with an oil, great look, no dust, just being unable to replace any components, like ever, lol.The less air flow inside PC case, the less dust it collects.
Indeed, I have my 4 fans set to 700rpm and you can not tell, if the PC is ON or OFF, it is so quiet.Steve on Gamers Nexus has said more fans, equals less RPMs needed to cool, equals less overall noise levels
