Sharkoon Pure Steel RGB

[Chrispy_]

Most halfway decent cases have dust filters installed to cover that issue.

Cleaning your room regularly also does the job

I mean let's not pretend top mounted PSUs with unfiltered air intake in less than clean environment do not get dusty over the years...

Bottom mount PSUs never seem to pick up much dust. I'm not sure exactly why but after servicing a few thousand PCs the PSU intake filter is always cleaner than the case front panel filter.

I guess it's a combination of less airflow and the floor itself acting as a dust filter - the dust on the floor near your PSU intake got stuck to the floor before it went through the PSU fan. That's exactly what a dust filter does, albeit much better.

Because I think you are being dishonest here, you are imposing your personal bias and your calculations are wrong.

I'm done here.

I assure you I have been more patient and tolerant than I normally would have been. If I wasn't on-call, being paid to sit at a PC reading the internet I would not have bothered taking the time to explain things to you like that.

I've got my system in a Rosewill Prism, aka:

• Sharkoon pure steel
• Aercool Glo
• Raidmax Enigma

I like it alot. The Pure Steel fans look much more useful than the fans mine came with (6 pin RGB fan connector, UGH) and it came with the GPU sag bar which is nice. And cheaper too. One thing I'll note about the bottom fans is that the grill on the bottom is much more restrictive than it needs to be. First chance I get I'll be removing some of the cross bars for more airflow. Either way keeps everything in my system cool and quiet with some noctua fans as intake on the bottom. I also thought the included filter was kinda meh, but easy enough to replace it with one that has a finer mesh. Either way though the filter being so accessible is do nice. With past cases ripping off the front panel just to get to the filter was such a chore. Some cases are better than others In this regard, obviously, but I clean my filter out much more now as a result.

I like the In Win 101c's drive caddy setup being accessible from the same side as the rest of the gear, but I only have m.2 drives in my system so it doesn't really matter to me. On the plus side though, the bottom fans don't block the bottom of the motherboard or the last PCI slot like they do on the 101c.

I kinda prefer the PSU at the top helping exhaust too for what it's worth but that's just me. All in all, I like this case alot. If I had to change anything I'd probably like the option for one to be 120mm shallower by removing the side fan mounts. Just to keep it more compact. But at least that space is being put to use currently; I'll be putting in some dual intakes with a filter fairly soon.

It finally dawned on me why the name of this company makes me giggle. It combines the ocean's apex predator with.....an old-timey receptacle for chewing tobaccy spit lol.

Shark + Spittoon = Sharkoon



**** EDIT **** Those cases are pretty sweet though, especially at that price point. Well done guys.
