As per the title. Can I mount a Thermaltake Toughpower Grand Gold PSU upside-down? The particular case I ended up getting has the mount for the PSU at the bottom of the case and the case instructions say the PSU can be mounted fan pointing up or down.

What are the pros/cons of mounting it upside-down if I choose to do so?

At the bare minimum, I'd guess any dust, etc. would have an easier time get sucked into the power supply or just passively fall inside/collect when the machine's off.

I don't know if it'd be harder on the fan with the gravity pulling on the blade assembly away from rather than towards the motor.
