RE: Finally wanting to build my first PC - Xray_Doc - 05-23-2015
I just want someone to double check my case fan choices. I feel confident with the research I did and think they are good, but need pro advice on just those.
Otherwise I think this is the final and I'll order when I can.

That could go horrifically wrong if you're not careful - I nearly borked my PC with water once. reflexes like a god saved it though
.Operating systems aside, good luck with your build!

Thank you! I think this is the set build

Do I need to purchase a filter/grill, or should I stick with the filter provided with the case?

I never bothered with one, but I've never built something particularly powerful.

Yeah I decided against it. Lots of people online say it's just easier to clean it with air every few months than clean a filter.
I want to thank everyone who helped answer all my questions. It looks like this is going to be my final. It's around $500 less than when I started.

It makes me happy that you didn't immediately demand my identity as soon as I show my anonymous face, unlike others *cough* Pablo *cough*.
Ye you can get little cans of compressed air from computer shops that are great for cleaning fans, heat sinks, and vents.
