The rationale is that yes, you will have better thermals than a closed case at a fixed fan speed (since nothing on the interior or exterior is impeding the air flow) but nothing is stopping the fan noise either. This isn't a blanket statement on open air test bench styles being worse since where the fans are, where they are pointed, number of fans, etc. all matter. But it explains why a case like the Cooler Master SIlencio 352 [coolermaster.com] can good at a noise normalized test. Your fans will be running faster across the board but more of the noise will remain in the case.
Only the CPU heatsinks and GPU collected dust. My normal cases collected dust on the filters AND GPU and CPU
