Thick layers of dust prevent proper airflow and cooling and can cause your electronics to overheat and potentially get permanent damage.

 

Can you show a picture to clarify your definition of "a lot of dust"?

 

Sometimes compressed air can be used to clean it off.

A lot dust means increased heating and potentially damage too.
