Need Air flow suggestions

My 230mm version measures at 230mm outside edge to edge and about 203mm inside edge to edge.

You can stick the whole thing magnetically directly to the case or you can stick the magnetic adhesive bit to the case and use that to attach the filter if your case isn't made of metal

My sticky bit gets used as a convenient window frame when I don't have the filter on.

Thanks for the explanation -I edited my post I previously posted just now

Would you suggest not having the magnetic adhesive contour, if the filter stick on without any problems, or would you suggest putting it on anyway?

It doesn't matter either way mate

I used the sticky bit because my filter placement also doubles as a side window. It just finishes the edge nicely.
Besides, my side fans are exhaust so the filter isn't desperately needed (was planned as intake before I bought the filter).

fair enough - I'll keep it off then, as I rather not have it stick out by that extra mm.
Thanks a lot for the fast reply!

Just an update.
I've put an order for 2x SP120 quiet edition.
To act as the push/pull for my antec.
I feel my Antec fans are the most noisiest things on my rig.

I know the quiet edition is a lower RPM than the stock antecs, but they can push so much air that it should be fine

Got the SP120's in - they are brilliant.
Quieter, and keep my temps down, like the stock antec 920's!
Incredible!
And this is the SP120 QUIET edition! No idea how cool the PERFORMANCE ones will do!
