^I'd like to know this too. Recently found a fan controller and now I want some dust filters because being on the floor (at my house :P) makes it take in way too much dust and pet hair.
I can't comment on the Antec 900 or Foam filters, But I do a similar method for my P183 with an cheap $3 air Filter you can buy almost anywhere.
And it works great at dust/hair filtering and air flow, especially over the crappy wire mesh & Foam filter cut outs that came with the case.
I gone for a cheap air filter because it's not as fine threaded and more spaced for better airflow while it still collects fantastically, you flatten it out and cut out the sections for the front fans, the filter has a Wire frame on the back so you can mold it's shape to fit pretty much anything you want.
one filter slide is enough to fit my PC case two times, Each cut out will last you 2-3months before you have to cutout the other half and another 2-3 Months before you have to buy another filter slide, which for $3 for 6 month it great for how fantastic they work.

I live next to farm Fields and at harvest time Dust goes completely insane around here and these filters turn almost black at times, Before when I opened my case you could physically see allot of dust now there's still dust that gets in but it's definitely been cut down a good 80-90%.

Again I can't comment on the Antec 900 but I can't imagine the resaults being to different.
^ What is that huge thing on the side of your PC? I've never seen a rig with one.. and I've seen LOTS. Just curious.Elann2008
Looks like the thingy used for water cooling. Called blocks or radiators, something.
