fan filters

[new builder]

Guys,

Should I be putting filters on all of my fans, or just the intake fans?

Thanks :D :cheers:

[Wiggo]

Just the intake ones will do. ;)

Yea, no need to filter the air leaving the PC now is there...

Nope, best give any dirt a fair chance to get out if at all posssible.

in an antec case, if i were to have all the front and rear fans as intake fans, with a single exhaust 120mm fan on the top, would i have to filter all of the intake fans (including the rear ones) ? and would that cool well ? or would the "stock" setup cool better ?

[Wiggo]

As to how well it would cool, you'd have to let us know. :D
But yes if you want filters then every intake fan must have them. ;)

I think that would work fairly well. But yea, if you want a clean case, all air coming in needs to be cleaned...

[drpeterbright]

How many intake fans are you planning?

[zeradul]

With that case, then he'd have 5 80mm intake fans, and possibly a side fan if he gets a model that comes with the a side fan.

Can you put two 120's on top?

Which filters have you found to last the longest & do the best job? Or are there any real differences?

Cheap filters,......take the foam padding that came with your motherboard and cut it to size then tape it on. Works well on fans covered up by front of the case.
