Air Filtration - Anyone done this before ?

I know what you mean about automotive filters. They seem a little restrictive for the mild fans we use for computer cooling. Here's my solution:

Works great, filter element is VERY cheap, washable, and allows only the finest of dust to get through.

A larger automotive would be great. Very fine filtration, very little restriction.

I realy like this filter material. If I find the automotive paper is to restrictive. I may go ahead and use the Chrome for the Bling Bling and remove the paper from the filter replacing it with this type of material.

When you finish yours, would you fix mine?

Filtering air coming into computers is actually rather common. Common enough, but still rather obscure so I ended up creating a fan filter materials list a while back. Hope this is another group of people who can benefit from my research and the comments of what other people use. So, here is the link http://www.ocforums.com/showthread.php?p=3313790

Yes I put the same handles on the bottom as the top, along with some 3/4" spacers to make it stand a little taller. Then I mounted a cath light to the bottom. I also want to mount two cath lights inside in the back but theres no room. Looks like I'm gonna have to do do some more Cuttin on my side panell to make some light fixtures.

Very, very nice work, man.

I tend to be....less than meticulous with most of my stuff and am always left in awe of you folks who can make things look as gorgeous as that.

As for the Edelbrock filter:
I too have seen it before, but not often at all. Maybe 3 or 4 times in the last 4 years or so; not unique but not far from it either.
Most of those rigs that did have one were auto-themed; one included wheels and exhaust as well.

One thought that may be of use: use a VERY powerful fan for that intake and put it on a fan controller so that you can tailor the airflow/noise level where you want. I would agree with sealing up any/every seam you can to prevent dust entering as well, since that is one of your goals.

very nice!!

Is that an asprie case?

 

[EWBatOVAclockin]

No its a AMS gmono. Very nice cases. To dusty, you should put the blowhole fan's inside the case. It will make the case look prettyier

PEACE

They wont fit there. That is where the tubes will be coming out of the liquid pump.
