MacPro tower legs removal & how it will effect cooling

Hello,


For space/minimalism, I've mounted tower under a sit/stand desk.


Considering removing the legs but concerned it will effect airflow with the internal "seal" of the the MacPro tower.


Dust may also creep into the bottom ?


Anyone keep the legs off of their tower and have had cooling issues and/or internal dust accumulation ?


Any advice is appreciated,

J.

Hello Grant,


Valid point on the legs, thank you for the input.


I went to Home Depot and bought some foam ear pugs that expand to the shape of ear canal. If I do decide to remove legs, I will use this foam to occupy the holes.


As for the heat dissipation. There is actually almost of 2 feet of space behind the tower, & giant windows obstructed by my monitors. All good there...


Enjoy your evening.
