Not worth the trouble.
Are you gona take off the dustcover everytime you operate the PC?
If no then its bad for the PC. most of them will restrict the airflow.
Rather clean the interior of PC every month or so. Dosent take much time.

in that case, use any kinda bed sheet or something to cover ur entire workstation, easy to remove, and easy to cover again ;)

Ya bed sheet is used by some of my friends to cover there entire PC.
You can try it.
Had plastic covers provided with my HP Pavilion used it for a year and then bye bye cover ;)

I seriously dont feel the need of a cover , you can do a weekly exterior cleaning
& monthly interior cleaning.

using branded dust covers or others available in market have a prob.

they are made of plastic, rexin, leather (artificial) like synthetic materials and they them selves gather a lot of dust and after a while they look ugly.

instead you can do one thing if you have one big piece of cloth (old bedsheet / dress / denim pants ) you can hire a tailor and ask him to stitch a cover for you. it will be cheaper / more elegant / better fitting / will allow air circulation so for a little work you can let them on.

and yeah the bedsheet hiding is a good option too.

i once bought a dust cover, made sexy cable sleeves from it for my mammoth Powersafe 500W :eek:hyeah:

looked reeeeal sexy, but became loose as time progressed...switched over to condom tapes now....
