Look at this dust filter, I cleaned it and my entire PC a week ago. How can this much dust accumulate in one week? I don't live in an industrial area and my windows are closed all the time. 

 

I even have a air revitaliser like this one

Yo I do have dogs though, 6 of em!

Wow-wee-woo-wa. That's alot of dogs. They will be causing some issues.

 

Lucky you have filters, otherwise it would be Dust City in your case.

Dogs

Negative air pressure

Really negative air pressure? 

It can't be, I was told negative air pressure results in cleaner dust filters because dust is being sucked in by every nook and cranny cause pcs aren't airtight.

 

I don't know if that's true, but my case has without any doubt, positive air pressure.

Damn. I thought it might be since sometimes I find hair stuck to my dust filters or the plastic mesh covering my case fans. 

 

So it is the dogs? They sleep in my room, will keeping them out 24/7 help me?

That is not the color of dust  that accumulates over months of usage. 

 

More like hair and fibers LOL

Well it's not actually that white at all, it was the flash, it's more of a neutral grey than white, I guess the flash makes it look like cottonwool. 

I Have 20 Dogs! :D

Luckily I Don't Run Into That Trouble

Wha? 20 dogs? Woooow I thought I was bad. 

 

I have dogs too, when they get inside they carry lots of dust, even if it's for a while.

Having your PC on the desk (not the floor) prevents it from sucking dust a lot. Cleaning the room everyday is also important.

My PC is on my desk about 1m high - next to my monitor.

Zalman Z9/11? Looks like my brothers case and that is full of dust.

 

I think default fan configs make for bad pressure

He's assuming that you have negative air pressure. Positive is indeed the way to go. Just keep your dust filter game strong to block all dem dog hairs.

I have removed all of the stock fans aside from the side panel fans.

 

I upgraded them all to better LED fans and I even DIY'd an 8th fan into this case.
