No matter your filters/pressure you will eventually have dust build up.

That link I provided has the filters...custom made for your case. You really only need the front, side and bottom.

It would probably be cheaper, just to get a more modern case, like the one I linked. Side fans were not a very good idea. They mess up the air flow stream through the case, and (w/o filters) allow a huge amount of dust into the comp.


/e Here my case. It's a Cooler Master ATCS 840 and it came with dust filters on all the intakes.

You can get the case now. Relocate your innards to the new case, and do the upgrade when you're ready.



/e But like I said above, all cases will eventually get dusty inside. Those with filters on the intakes, take longer to get dusty, but they will, sooner or later.

Damn, you're good for a while.
Get a better case and maybe a Corsair AIO CPU cooler like H100i V2 and overclock that 2600K.


/e That's assuming you have a decent motherboard. Which is kinda why I asked for the Speccy screen shot. It answers tons of questions all in one pic. :)
