ok so i just got the components for my gaming pc and i was wondering if i should point the psu downwards because the case has a vent on the bottom.

its user preference, theres no correct way if there is a bottom vent.

facing down is just more convenient to avoid more dust in case.

thw only reason you can mount it both ways is so you can controll positive or negative air pressure in the case so look around and see which was is best for you :)
