GrkBear Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 I just bought a TX650M and would like to know if you can mount this psu with the fan facing down. I have a coolermaster elite 430 case with a bottom mount for the psu. The case has a bottom screen for fresh air intake where the psu mounts. More worried about mounting the psu incorrectly and causing an issue with it if it was not originally designed to be mounted this way (upside down/fan facing down). Any help or insight is much appreciated. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toasted Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Fan down. It's because the PSU fan can get better airflow with the fan facing down instead of up. if it faces up then there isn't much air that can cool the components inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrkBear Posted October 15, 2011 Author Share Posted October 15, 2011 Thanks Guys. Will mount it fan facing down so it can get clean cool air from outside the case. Appreciate your replies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
