[QUOTE="harryb2448, post: 1302603, member: 42497"] Well you have answered your question. Keeping it a cupboard will not assist air flow whatsoever. Suggest at least 8" free space all around the Mac Pro, clean out the grilles and fans, particularly the grille in front of the optical drive, and remove front fan situated in front of the processors, and then the back fan behind the memory box. Personally I clean the fan units by removing, clean the grilles, pry up the seals in the centre of the fan units and lubricate with a drop or two [B][I]ONLY[/I][/B] of WD40 and replace seals.
