I'm about to fall for the magnetized air filter meme. My case has godawful airflow and gets dust in it all the time, clogging my noctuas. Do I buy this crap?

>noctuas
You're using the LNA's aren't you?

>dust
>in your fucking fans
>with filters
Serious question, are your fans blowing into the case or out of it? Because one makes you a retard and the other means you have a shit case.
>>
>Godawful airflow
>Choke it even more with a filter
I'd say sleep on it.

Make your own using screen door filters and magnetic adhesive strips. While it doesn't look as nice it also doesn't cost fucking $100 for a set.

>>52418895
If you're not doing both, you are the retard, anon.
>>
>>52418895
Wait shit, I thought you were already using them. I need to sleep.
>>
>>52418895
I only have a rear exhaust 120mm noctua and a cpu noctua uh9b. My case has no room for any other fans
>>
>>52418902
You have a single fan in the rear to provide some consistent exhaust. All other fans should be blowing into the case to create a positive pressure system which is what keeps dust out if the fans are filtered.
>>
>>52418917
Flip the rear fan around to blow into the case and adjust the CPU one to complement it. Then get a fan filter. Should help with the dust.
>>
>>52418938
then how will the air exist the case?

Air finds a way.

I bought some dust filters from deal extreme and they arrived today, I cant say if they help because I havent installed them yet but I can say that the build quality on them is pretty good.

* I bought one of these to check them out but build quality is a lot lower, instead of a fine mesh with small round holes this one is made by crossing wires really tightly , sort of like a chicken fence, but the gaps are a bit bigger and this showed up a little bit bend.
