Hi,


I have a Fractal Define R4 case and Seasonic M12ii 520w PSU.

At the moment PSU`s fan is facing upward.
Im not sure if the PSU is blowing hot air from the fan inside the case or from the back outside the case.

Should i turn it around so fan is facing downward?, because there is hole and filter at the bottom or is it even possible with this PSU?


Many thanks in advance

You can install the power supply facing down since there is a power supply fan filter at the bottom of the case.

I have mine installed facing up as well but the power supply can be installed in either direction / orientation.

The power supply fan sucks in air and that air is released out the back of the power supply where the holes are.
