I have the Antec Fusion remote case and a Seasonic 430W PSU.
The case does not have vents in the bottom of the case where the PSU is located.
So.....
Do I install it right side up so the switch operates normally which would place the fan right on the bottom of the case
or
Do I install it upside down so the fan is on top? This seems to make more sense since right side up the fan has only the clearance of the four bumpers it sits on.
Thanks for any help.

Normally the fan pulls air from inside the case and blows it out the back so on the top the fan is down and on the bottom the fan is up.
