NZXT Phantom 410 dust filters???
So the NZXT Phantom 410 doesnt have any dust filters. Did any other owners of the 410 have to buy some dust filters for it? or is it alright without them?

You don't have to buy dust filters for any case you purchase. They help with minimizing dust inside, but they are not necessary. Many times the filters will reduce air flow and cause more problems with case temperatures if not well designed.

Yes, as rotNdude mentions - you don't need them in most cases and they can restrict the airflow a little bit.

However, if you are interested, your PC case should be able to have a dust filter kit.
Look for "NZXT Phantom 410 Dust Filter Kit" at a computer store or online.

Note: Normally a very few PC cases will already come with dust filters, they are removable, can be sloted in and out, as actually part of the case design. Dust Filter Kits might not support this, rather just being mounted or screwed in place. Still helpful if in a dusty environment, but not as easy to clean as the real deal.

If possible, look for ones with strong magnetic frame to use, rather than screws or glued into place.

Consider how dusty your enivornment is, to determine if they would be helpful or not. If your fan and heatsinks inside the case are extremely dusty all the time, they can be of great help to reduce that re-occuring so regularly.

You would be looking at something like:

I found a kit: http://www.demcifilter.com/p0195/NZXT-Phantom-410-Dust-Filter-Kit.aspx
But its like 40$ + 15$ shipping. I find that expensive lol and since my environment isnt really dusty, i guess im not gonna get dust filters. Thanks for the help :D

That's the one, I looked myself and it's probably your best option. Has features I would personal recommend. But yeah, consider if you actually need it or not.

Around $55 USD is the cheapest I've seen, so take it or leave it.

Other sites like Amazon and Ebay have much higher, jacked up pricing for that filter kit made for the 410 series cases.
