Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Never had an issue and can confirm vacuums do a darn good job of cleaning my computer many years ago. (Haven’t had dust build up in last two places I’ve lived over 3 years)

I agree with Ej24, that vcore seems wack! I’d start asking around here on the Intel forum and see if they may know. Or do some google searching as even those idle temps are high.
Had my Sentry since June, still no dust in the system/fans. This was also the case in my last case, haha get it, cause it...ok I’ll see myself out now.
On a serious note, I am not sure what environments cause dust in cases. As I have not had a dusty case in over 10 years.
