Switch 810 Fan Dust Proof

bermel72 · Apr 21, 2016

Would something like this (link) work on the NZXT Switch 810 (manual here) at the top exhaust. Since its not dust proof on the top I was thinking about mounting triple 140 fans at the top with a kraken x61 below (I am aware it is only a 280mm, and then laying this dust cover on top to catch dust. Would this work? The reason for this being asked is I would like to leave the vents open to let the heat dissipate from the case, but I don't want dust somehow getting into the case. Thanks.

fans at the top should not need to be dust filtered, as they blow out (or should). If you do not have the PC running all the time, I could understand the need. The filter you picked will work, but needs to go under the plastic, attaching to the steel part of the chassis. Also another thought is that a filter will reduce the airflow going through the top of the chassis as well.
