The left panel of the MSI Nighthawk is meshed, coming with one 200 mm fan. Unfortunately, the manufacturer doesn’t publish the specifications for this fan, which can be replaced with two 120 mm models. It uses a standard peripheral power plug, so you can’t install it on your motherboard nor monitor its speed. There is no air filter on the left panel; however, the mesh uses small holes which will act as a filter.
