I'm buying a new powerful computer and want to stop letting dust build up. My case needs to sit three inches off the floor against a wall, which used to work fine for my gaming computers I've had here for twelve years. But I know PCs are full of traps, so maybe an air purifier would help? If that's true, where should I put it near my PC? Thanks!

I would have used positive air pressure inside the box along with good dust filters coming into every intake opening for that setup.

It is already finished. I'm just curious if a fan with filters can add extra dirt blocking.
