Why bother opening it? Just use a vacuum or compressed air around the vents!
First-hand tip: Make sure everything is unplugged! To open, use a T8 Torx screwdriver. Take your time with the clips; they can be a bit tricky but gentle pressure works wonders. Use compressed air or a tiny brush for dust. You'll notice a performance boost after cleaning, and your Xbox will thank you!
Grab a torx screwdriver (T8 or T10). First, remove the faceplate and the side panels. Unsnap the clips around the casing and then carefully pull apart the two halves. Clean dust with compressed air, and use isopropyl alcohol for sticky spots. Replace everything in reverse order. Voila!
