If you want to toss a filter on it because your environment isn't
exactly clean, it is trivial. Maybe that is part of their rational.
I am by no means a fan and air-flow expert, but I seem to recall
something about it being easier to push air into a box than pulling it
out of it.
Higher pressure air should also have a slightly higher ability to remove
heat (more molecules to heat), but I guess heating-gurus can tell me it
is of marginal effect.
Cheers,
Magnus
