Can I remove the DVD drive for better airflow
Is it possible to take out the DVD drive without screwing up the system in order to get better airflow as it overheats often?
Is this a good question?

Yes, it is possible. However, if the iMac is overheating, then I suggest cleaning out the heatsinks/fans and replacing the thermal compound.
The instructions for these can be found on the iMac repair page. Make sure you use the right guide for your model!
Good luck!

I already had cleaned out the heatsinks/fans. And still overheating.
Did you replace the compound? Heck, is there any?
