Posted July 26, 2014 I live in Australia in a house that gets very dusty, so, for future reference, i would like to know some of the most dust proof cases with easy to access filters. thanks in advance buy the dust filters seperately. makes better filters than would be in any case. Find a case on their site that they make filters for.

Posted July 26, 2014 The 250D comes with filters all around. only the back of the case has none. They are magnetic on the sides and the front is in a removable frame. All are washable. I have almost no dust in my case.The 350D is also nice, but you have to buy the filters seperately. There is a kit you can get from corsair. The Bitfenix Neos is a cheap case that also comes with dust filters as far as I know. It is a decent case.

Posted July 26, 2014 A company called DEMCi makes flexible magnetic filters for many cases. YOu would be better off using these rather than the (usually) average-at-best ones that come with the case. Here's a link to the filter sets for cases: http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=1475&vk_sort=4 You can also buy individual aftermarket filters: http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=9_26&vk_sort=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same response as last one They are quite expensive, but considering how easily they are removed, cleaned and re-attached they are definitely worth it in my book. If you don't want to spend that much money on the full custom set you could just get individual 120/140 or dual 120/140 filters for $10-20 each.

Posted July 26, 2014 The one thing about any dust filters I think people need to be more clear on. Yes, you can remove and clean them, no you should not use solvant/soap nor hot water to do so. These filters typically have a laminate coating which if you use hot water or soap on could remove it and thereby lower it's effectiveness. Linus should do a video on this if he hasn't already because I don't think it's common enough knowledge.

Posted July 27, 2014 So, cold water? Yup, and no soap, I mean all you're looking to do is to get the dust off... not even to let water pass through the filter. I avoid that as well, just rinse both sides and try to pass as little through it as possible. It's made for air filtration, not water. *grin* Current Rig: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/joenewbie/saved/THTzK8 What I would build today: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/joenewbie/saved/xHTzK8 Economy Gaming: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/joenewbie/saved/9CWBD3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted July 27, 2014 One pet peeve I have are cases that have open top ventilation without any mesh covering. I have a graphite series 230T and anything floating above the case can wind up inside and on your mobo and GPU, as seems to be the situation for many of their cases. Apparently Corsair is unfamiliar with this thing called gravity. I'm not expecting ultra fine mesh and foam covering the top that is likely going to be for exhaust, but please, don't leave the thing almost completely open to the environment. I had someone eating some doritos while standing near my desk, and found friggin crumbs inside the damn thing all over my GPU, that's how open it is.
