ripken204 Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 u can use filters but they need to be cleaned at least once a week and they inhibit airflow, most people just dont use filters and then just clean out the whole comp a few times a year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluelight Posted July 26, 2005 Author Share Posted July 26, 2005 Ok, but on the graficks card I get very dense dust..I'm having trouble removing it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripken204 Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 how are u removing it? alot of ppl just use a vaccum on a low speed with one of the attachment brushes on it, works just fine, but if u dont want to do that then u will have to just use the fan filters and if they dont fit ur fans then u need to get new fans, fans are cheap, ~8$ for a good one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbm Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 I'm gona just start building a new computer when the dust builds up too thick Seriously I removed the filter on an older machine when I was messing withover clocking. no i have a cooler master cmstacker case. I don't likehow the dust builds up on the front and is hard to clean off.So I removed the front covers and I'm going to stop by home depot to see ifI can find a filter I could use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripken204 Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 amazing case by the way, but do u mean that just build up on the outside of the removeable tray? im pretty sure that there are little filters on the inside part of the tray unless that was with the TT Kandalf case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are they called?You remove them if you want to install a CDROM drive or something.I always had a hard time removing them to clean them, so last time I left them off.

Zxian Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 **** that's a nice case... pretty big, but really nice. Next time I build a new computer from scratch I'll probably look into something like that. The ability to attach a fan directly onto the front of the hard drive bays is nice too... a good added touch by Coolermaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripken204 Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 its so my favorite b/c u can have 3 120mm fans on front and still use 2-3 of the front bays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluelight Posted July 27, 2005 Author Share Posted July 27, 2005 I have a Cieftech case, and it has removable trays with fans like that CoolerMaster one, but with no filter.. So my HDD's are also soked in dense dust! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
