When is the last time you pulled the cover?  You may be able to knit a
sweater out of what is in there.  Every so often I need to open my
computers that are on 24/7 make a change etc.  But I wait until it's
cooled off and take a can of compressed air and blow it out.  First, do
it outside as it's a big cloud of dust, and check the direction of the
wind.  No reason to have it blow back in your face. I've done that :-)
I'm assuming that it ran fine and cooler before.  Before putting the
cover back on make sure all the fans are running OK.
