Cooler Master Q300L V2 Top Panel Louvers

Top Louver Vent for the Cooler Master Q300L V2 (should be compatible with V1 as well)

The stock top panel on the Q300L V2 has small, widely spaced holes that combined with high density mesh filter restrict airflow significantly. This louver vent replaces the stock dust filter with overlapping angled slats that let air out while keeping dust from falling straight in. IMHO it also looks prettier.

FEATURES

• Fits the Cooler Master Q300L V2 top panel

• 15° louver angle slats

• Raised about 2 mm from the base for airflow

• Each slat is a single printed piece

• Push-pull rivets, so no glue, screws or tools

• Designed to sit over an exhaust fan (I use a high static pressure fan)

WHAT'S INCLUDED

• Louver slat (19 pieces to print)

• Louver slat with an offset pin (3 pieces to print)

PRINT SETTINGS

• Material: PETG is recommended, since the area above the fan can get warm

• Layer height: 0,2 mm

• Walls: 2 or more, use a higher thickness (120%) for the inner walls

• Infill: default 15% or more

• Supports: yes, the best way is to paint the support area underneath the pins manually, only they need to be supported

• Orientation: Print at 90 angle as shown in photo!

ASSEMBLY

1. Print the slats.

2. Remove the stock top filter.

3. Check the fan underneath is set to exhaust (if you are using one).

4. Push the rivets through the slats and into the top panel until they click. Enjoy!

NOTES

Made for the Q300L V2. The V1 or other cases may not fit.

As I'm using the exhaust fan only above the cpu area, the top area next to the front panel is covered with transparent tape to avoid random air intakes and dust buildup.

2-3 sessions should be enough to print all of the 22 pieces with some adequete spacing. Before printing many louvers at once, I reccomend you to fine-tune your printer on a single piece.

The push-pull rivets sit tight once inserted, so double check first before installing.

Feedback is welcome. If you print it, please post a Make!
