Why is close panel is more help to the system and gain more performance and sure life extension to the component and the parts of it.

A closed case enables the fans to create airflow. This airflow substansially cools off interior components. When the side of the case is open, you ruin the airflow of the system, and you lose a lot of cooling efficiency.

The fan draws cool air in from outside the case and blows it over the component inside the case.
