That doesnt make sense to me, I previosly had 2 120mm fans in my 2nd comp both at 1200RPM, the filter got disgusting dirty so i remove the front fan and replace the back for a more powerful 2000RPM fan, now the air that comes out is way cooler. Though i didnt opened to see the dust.

This positive thing only removes the dust coming from the holes in the case, but they will still get inside through the filters, because no filter prevent 100% of dust
