Running a cooling van in reverse.

I tried using filter and push fan but dust still appeared inside the case.

You need a fan powerful enough to create a "positive" pressure inside the
case.
That is to say the fan doing the pushing (air into the case) must overcome
the power supply fan which draws air from inside the case and then out the
back. I suspect your power supply fan was the cause of the dust.

Also some cases are equipped with cooling fans for the hard drives, not to
mention the Video Card fans.
