I have an Antec case & 350 fan.
The case has a 110 mm fan in front, pulling; and a 110 (or is it 120) mm fan in rear, pushing air out.
The Antec PSU has two fans, one exhausting the air out the case; the other, at the bottom of the PSU, pushing the air into the case. (where it mixes with the other air and is pulled out with the 110 mm rear fan.)
My AMD CPU temp is 100% higher than the air in the box--at 50 C, with no overclocking.
Is the bottom fan on the PSU blowing the best direction, down into the case, the best way to bet the heat down? Or should I see if I can turn it upside down so it pulls hot air out, into the PSU and lets the rear PSU push it out the case, along with my main rear-case fan. --BTW, the PSU fan hardly ever comes on. --If the case temp gets to 52C it'll kick in for a few minute. When the air in the case drops back to 50C, the PSU fan stops?
What's the best configuration for the bottom PSU fan for maximum cooling? push (as it is set up) or pull?
Thanks
