Topic: Filter removal Corsair 230T (Vanquish II) Posted: 09 Apr 2014 at 2:49am |
Thought I posted this yesterday, but apparently it wasn't. So much for all my pretty pictures, fancy uploads and diagrams. So, in brief:
I see from their website that the Corsair 230T has 2 dust filters. PSU (bottom) and front fascia. I would like to know how difficult it would be to clean/replace the front dust filter. I'm not at the machine (currently some miles away) but it's been on my mind and I can't find information regarding this filter. Corsair sells a PSU filter ($2.99) but does not sell a front filter. This seems strange.
Any information on these filters, cleaning or replacing the front one, would be appreciated.

From what I gather from reviews, that case has a bottom psu filter that just slides out the back. Typical for a lot of cases. Might have to lift the 230t a little to get it out.
The front filter is glued in. You have to pop 3 clips on either side of front panel to remove it. Then just blow them out to clean. |

I knew about the slide out PSU filter, but was concerned if I had to replace the front fascia filter it would be quite difficult. So, yea, blowing them out and doing my best not to rip them seems the way to go.
I wonder if you buy the $12.99 front fascia is the glued in filter included.
Thanks bprat.
