It wouldn't be too much of a hassle to vacuum once a week or biweekly if I took mine out. \ However, I can see where in some situations a dust filter is really needed... like for a radiator in a water cooling system... that would be a royal pain in the butt to clean if filters weren't used right? I would appreciate everyone's input and experience on this topic.
