Hm. Well according to their website, the H100i v2 comes with 2x Corsair SP120L, which is pretty much the same as far as I can tell.

Looking at getting one of these 2 filters for my 2 rad fans:

or

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ARB5E8U/ref=twister_B01GMW39Z2

The one without the honeycomb pattern is magnetized.

don't bother, they'll just clog faster and reduce air flow.

like I was telling ya, many here have experienced it

you will never stop dust even with positive airflow, just work on good air current and clean regularly

Said that in PM as well. Dust is just a fact of life, in comps.

Alright. Fine. Thanks for the help. Now, on to the next question...

Who here can recommend some nice black/white cable extenders for my power supply? These Corsair PSU cables are terrible.

Just buy some actual cables. Most extensions are solid colors only.

Aren't you supposed to only use the cables that came with your PSU?

Edit:

PCI-E cable from my PSU here:



There's nothing I can do to hide this extra part hanging off...

That looks like it's so one cable to the PSU can power two pin or 6 pin connectors on a vid card.

/e Yoju can just hide it behind the main PCI-E cable...zip tie it.


These pics of rigs you see with perfect cables, are usually a custom cable set, costing like $200 - $300.





/e



Here, I found a pic of that cable type...in use.
