Hi everybody, i hope you are all great and maybe know how to help me.

So I recently build my first PC and I am very happy with it but recently I noticed a lot of dust inside the PC.


By the way , I am just waiting for a double 3M tape to put the led strip neatly in case your were going to ask why the whole led strip was inside.

So before I started building my PC i heard about panty hose as filters. So I was thinking about doing this at this moment.

I took apart front and upper panel and i removed the black screen mesh where the filters are located. I thought the filters that are used can trap very fine dust but i am not sure.

A lot of dust is getting inside the PC, not only dust but also hair and lint.

What do you guys think should i do, i put some pictures so you can understand a bit and the link of the case.

1, At the bottom of the case, theres is a mesh but not a very good one, that goes to the PSU and next to it there are some air vents that is just holes. What can i use to filter out this two places?

4. should i put panty hose at each fan?

Thank You in advance

Thank You in advance
 
there is no point in putting filters on exhaust.
the only way to keep computer with less dust is to clean the room and clean the PC. I live in a desert, so no filters will help.
the ones that can filter fine dust will deprive the computer from air or you will have too much noise from the fans.

Ok, I was thinking the same that why in exhaust, but the case still came with dust filters for upper exhaust.

I have to clean dust almost everyday on top of the video card, I don't understand how fast it gets there. Like in 2 days I have to clean that layer of dust.

Thank you for your reply.'

Can more people give me more recommendations and ideas?

Thank You
