[Notebook] Fan Dust Removal Introduction

The 2nd Generation ASUS Anti-Dust Tunnels bring Fan Dust Removal function into effect.

Fan Dust Removal can not only keep the heatsinks clean, but also effectively eject the dust and other particles to prolong the lifespan of the system.

Using the principles of centrifugal force and momentum force, dust and other particles would eventually be expelled out of the chassis through the anti-dust tunnels.

Dust and other particles in the fan module blown along the fan walls, and would eventually be expelled out of the chassis through the anti-dust tunnels.

This prevents dust buildup on the heatsink fins.
