My case is made of steel. "Japanese Steel" to be exact, according to the product link. I am assuming that painting steel doesnt change its ability to remove heat as much as painted aluminum. What if I paint my steel case with light colors, and use plenty of fans? Will this be ok, or should I not even bother?
