Im finally able to upgrade from the poo poo psu the came with my case. This is the first time im ever installing one myself. It has a 120mm fan and the power supply is gonna be at the top of my case. I wanted to know should the fan my facing the top of my case (its pure metal there no vent holes) or should i flip it upside down so the fan is facing down toward everything else in my case?

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME

Your fan should be facing down, if it's facing upwards then the fan will only blow right back into the PSU :P that'd be a problem heheh

So what your saying is flip it upside down,so that the fan faces the inside of the case where nothing is blocking the fan.... I ask this because i saw this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvClS_M-09o and he has his fan facing the bottom of the case where it covered by the bottom metal of the case
