Pros

  • I couldn't find specific information about the magnetic dust filter, but I was placing it outside over the long 'ridgy' part.

Cons

  • I always have been taking it to someone - to dust, re-apply paste, check if there is anything wrong etc. Things are very compact and I'm afraid if I was to remove something I could never quite puzzle them the right way back in again.
  • if the problem is supposedly the case, then what's need to also change the cooler other than charging you for no reason.
  • Even if the PSU has super short cables you can work around that with extensions, and if …
  • Manual page 29 - 30, there seems to be one filter that clips onto the inside fo the side panel, and then there are two filters inside that are placed over the GPU and the PSU fans.
