Corsair spec 03

[xnoobftw]

Does the front mesh act as a dust filter or is it worth it to get a aftermarket dust filter? The insides of my case gets dusty pretty quickly :C

They made a Spec 03?

 

I'd seriously get a dust filter.

Yeah, they did. Afaik, it's a slightly better SPEC 01.

Hmmmm the front 'dust filter' doesnt seem to do donkey crap They advertised it as a filter tho....

You should get a few dust filters the front mesh is quite open, I have two silverstone fine ones for my Spec-02.

Well it looks pretty good to me

SLS has a number of shops selling magnetic Silverstone 120/140mm filters.

 

I bought them for my Corsair 550D.

 

By the way I looked at your PC pics and you might want to put the monitor down. The mid level of the screen should be lower than your eyes.

Ah! My god thanks (you're my savior every single time )

Well they are still lower than my eyes at that height... Im 195cm LOL

How does the filter block the front LED color? Do you have any pics of your Spec 02 with the filter? Thanks btw!

I don't have any pics but if your front fan is the stock one it should work fine.

You use with your elbow all the way down and resting on the desk? If the desk is that low, your knee must be slamming the underside quite often.

 

For the filters, just look around the shops at 4th floor (same level as Fuwell/PCT) I bought mine from the store with a whole bunch of fans running outside. They also sell canned air and many useful stuff. Take your time to look around and other stores too.

Rest on desk! Not really! I actually want this to be taller but it is the best i can find in ikea (gonna get another one for my 2nd monitor AKA 144hz FREESYNC WOOO ) 

Thanks for the tip!

I'm mainly concern about aesthetics  D: Like will the LED lights be blocked off by the filter?

A little but it will still be pleasing to the eyes, it would only be a problem if you were using purple led fans as those are dimmer than red, blue, green and white.

Would it be okay if you showed me yours? Sorry for the trouble! :C

 

 

If you're looking for a simple table, consider at the Linnmon/Tornilden/Melltorp tables in the dining table section. They are much cheaper than the computer/work desks.

 

I bought the Melltorp when it was on sale ($45 iirc)

Hmmmm I'll consider!

Out of curiosity what would you rate my build out of 10?  

[NeatSquidYT]

I'd say 9/10

For gaming a 9/10.

WOOT! Thanks guys  

 

If you're using custom filters you should put them on the chassis right in front of the fans. The original mesh appears to be removable by taking out the 6 screws that hold it to the front panel.

 

I suggest removing the original mesh as it will only block more light and impede air flow.

Yeap! I removed them for cleaning before! But wont it look like crap without the mesh? D: 

[xnoobftw]

Its up to you really 

Hmmm i plan to do a good cleaning before adding the filters... Should i just filter the front 2 intakes? Should i bother to filter the rear exhaust? 

and for cleaning do you recommend compressed air? Because the last time i did the cleaning i dismantled the entire thing and it took like 5 hours to make it sparkly clean

There's no point in filtering an exhaust. Compressed air works best for cleaning a PC, I use compressed air and a soft bristle brush, you only should need to dismantle your pc if your going to do a deep cleaning (that's why my PC is dismantled).
