Hi all!

Im about to purchase an Antec 902 case and was wondering should i fit a side fan? if so what would ya'll recommend and would it need a dust filter?

another antec tricool but just clean the outside where the dust settles on the mesh

Where/ what is this fan? Isn't that the top fan?

ah they dont sell them on the Oc but do you have a budget? and any preference to sound?

Well I'd like it to be as quiet as possible but still useful obviously. I dont know anything about fans tbh. £10-15 seems reasonable for a fan right? :S

What about a dust filter for those? would it be necassary ya think?

 

[siumatfung]

not really because its not hard and not much hassle to clean the side panel inside and out so yah know

Maybe I'm too lazy to clean!

hey antec 902 side comes with a filter already, tbh the side fan not really needed i havent used it in my past 3 builds of using this case and the temps are perfect in the case

I just put a Coolermaster one with blue leds in my 1200. Its quite low RPM (<1200rpm) and so its practically inaudible, although it doesn't move a lot of air, but better than nothing
