Fractal Design R5 - clean strip on up panel on moduvent cover

[sew333]

Hello. I have an question. My case is Fractal Design R5. I have pc few months and of course which is normal many dust on case on up panel on moduvent cover.

Screen from internet case and panel moduvent( not mine screen etc ). Case panel from screen is clean without dust but it is only for show:

There are many dust on my case on up panel on moduvent cover. But…i dont know why some day i saw on moduvent covers a scratch ( not physically scratch but a trial looking like scratch ),like somebody used a pen or pencil to remove dust . . But like i said i dont touch case, dust dissapeared itself in this part. Is this possible?

One day i saw a clean strip on the dusty case, as if someone had dragged a pencil's eraser end or a finger across it, and i wondering if the strip could possibly have appeared by itself and not caused by someone or something, as if by magic.

I dont have any extra added vents in case. Only gpu and cpu fan. Thats all. I swear i dont touch case and my mother dont touch too. Please explain me . Thanks.Or maybe i am lunatic?

The phenomenon you're describing with the appearance of a clean strip on your PC case and the dust disappearing on its own without any known physical contact can seem quite mysterious. Here are a few possibilities to consider: 1. Airflow Patterns: It's possible that the dust on the case was redistributed due to the airflow within the case. In some cases, air pressure changes inside the case can cause dust to move and settle in different patterns. 2. Static Electricity: Static electricity can sometimes attract and repel dust particles. It's possible that a static charge in the case caused the dust to move or settle differently. 3. Temperature Changes: Changes in temperature, especially if sudden, can sometimes cause dust to shift or settle differently. This could happen as components heat up or cool down. 4. Vibrations: If the case is exposed to any external vibrations or the internal components generate vibrations, this can cause dust to move around. 5. Optical Illusion: Sometimes the play of light on a surface can create the illusion of a clean strip or a different appearance due to reflections and shadows. 6. Household Factors: Factors like humidity, air quality, or even subtle movements in the environment can lead to dust behaviors that might seem unusual. Given that your case is sensitive to dust and airflow, it's possible that a combination of these factors led to the strange appearance on your PC case. It's important to ensure proper ventilation and maintenance of your PC to prevent damage due to dust accumulation and maintain optimal performance.
