Question about the HAF X is there a removable dust filter on the bottom of the case where the PSU is. If there isnt is there anywhere i can purchase one

I received my HAF X and can happily confirm that all intakes have a filter

I think there was an issue with the first load of HAF X's not being supplied with filters, later ones were - IIRC if you did have an early one without filters, coolermaster would just send you some upon request...

(might pretend my 932 is an X and ask for some filters lol)

My HAF X from OCUK came with filters on the PSU intake vent

Is it a 2x120mm fan grill on the bottom or is it different on the X to the 932?

HAF X has a 2x120mm fan grill.

I was quite confused by the fan grill being on the underside of the case at first. Following the instructions, it suggested you face the PSU intake upwards (i.e. draws air from inside of your case), but if you put the cable duct in, it blocks air from getting into the PSU! I've never seen a PSU intaking air directly from outside the case. I am a bit concerned it will attract a lot of dust though because of its proximity to the ground.

My issue is that im worried it will suck dust in from the outside if i place the PSU with the fan mounted down. Thats why i was curious as to if there was a dust filter there in order to alleviate the problem
