    Anyone here own a Cooler Master Centurion 5?

    Serial:
    CAC-T05-UW


    Does the front 80mm draw air from the mesh cover? Wont that build up a large clump of dust over time?

    I have a Centurion. Yes, the front fan (120mm on mine) does pull air through the mesh. The mesh itself has foam filter material backing it. In over two months though, I'm only just seeing a light dusting of dust on the front; I reckon a sweep across the front every couple of weeks with a vacuum cleaner will keep it nice and clean.

    It is my understanding that these are removable so they can be cleaned. Tis better to have the herd of dust bunnies against the fence than all over the range!

    I mean on the bottom cover. My current case has a 120mm on the bottom too, and it collects so much dust, evertime i accidently graze my foot across the surface, i end up with dust all over the place.

    You do need to clean the filter every few weeks, by removing it and giving it a rinse, then allowing it to dry off properly before reinstalling.
