So i have one in front which is very thick and im able to see dust accumulate there,there is also one on side which is also thick as the one in front, and one on top which is less thick.The thing is,i have 3x fans in front as intake and 1x as exaust.


Is it good idea to put 1 more thick dustfilter from the side which im not using since there are no fans,and put it on top to reduce dust getting in ?

With 3x intake and 1x exhaust, you should already have positive pressure inside the PC, whereby from unused vents and grilles, the air is pushing out, rather than sucking in.

But, yes, you can cover up unused vents if you like. It won't hinder the cooling performance.
