Dust Filters

[Onizuka]

Ok my PC is starting to look like it was dug out of a 2000 year old tomb, there's dust everywhere! Does anyone know where i can buy dust filters for a PC? im looking for something similar to this: Fan Filter.
Anyone know where i can buy these here in SA, or some other type of dust filter (i hear panty hose work :wtf: is this true)? Thanks

Imo, your better off living with it and cleaning your machine out every now and then. Dust filters won't keep it all out, and they'll inhibit the good airflow, my opinion.

If it gets dusty really really quickly, the room it's kept in is obviously a bit dirty, clean your room.

Search the forums though, somewhere there is a thread where someone suggested making them out of some material I can't remember the name of, also afaik some people use disposable pantyhose.

Actually I've seen filters like the one you linked at this small electronics shop on the outskirts of Alexandra (don't know the name though). I don't think those will work very well, tons of dust will build up on the filter, but lots will just fly around it. You'll spend more time cleaning the filters I reckon.

Computer Dust Fan Filters

Have a look at Støf.Filter - www.stoffilter.co.za - They are based in Cape Town and supplies to the rest of South Africa.

Do you have a generic case ? Maybe not enough airflow causing more dust being pulled in... is that negative pressure.. I forget... anyways, clean your room

As a temporary measure, move your PC onto the desk.
