  |  cutting out exhaust grill at back of case.... Stupid question but...My 140mm rear exhaust doesn't feel like it's pushing out much air. So if I cut the grill out, there won't be dust because it's an exhaust, right? |

| Re: cutting out exhaust grill at back of case.... only if you never turn it off. i would suggest getting a fan that moves more air.

| Re: cutting out exhaust grill at back of case.... the rear grills are not meant to filter out dust, they are meant to keep the wires, such as keyboard, mouse, speaker, etc, out of the way of the fan.
