Hi i bought this case and am confused due to the problem of what way to put the PSU in. You see normall i would put it where the bottom (intake) fan facing down to get cool air, and this would be good especially as i was told my fan had open vents on the bottom suchs on this site:

However my case instead has these vents, but they are covered my metal with a very thin slit like this page: http://www.thinkcomputers.org/zalman-z9-plus-mid-tower-case-review/3/

Should i have done something? What has happened?

I cannot remove the panel it is part of the whole bottom case. The slits are VERY thin and when i first installed my psu (intake facing down) the power supply got VERY hot and made a serious amount of noise. I then installed it face up and was better but during gaming it gets noisy again due to my GPU pumping out hot air into the PSU iintake fan
