For a bottom mounted PSU, have the fan sucking air in from the bottom. Have the PSU cool itself, and let the rest of the case fans cool the rest of the PC.But if I put it downwards , the fan will be covered by the bottom panel.
There's no air duct below it.
Well, if there is no air intake hole below the PSU, then your options are limited. As in one option. Sucking air from inside the case.

There's a dust filter underneath it and a bottom fan to the right of it.. ??

Ahhhh....so there IS an air vent (and filter!) below the PSU.
Then have the PSU fan facing down, sucking air from outside the case.

Looking at zalman.com, I see a picture of that case, with the PSU mounted at the bottom.
If you do not see any holes...please take a pic and post it here.

USAFRet,do you know how to get the lan drivers working?Go to the motherboard manufacturer website, download the relevant LAN drivers for your OS. Install.
Oh perhaps the drivers didn't work because I'm trying to install them on my current PC instead of the new mobo :\
Wow, I feel stupid now!
