Hello,
Last night I put together my first build. It was quite an interesting experience, time consuming but worth it. I haven't got to around to actually hooking up the cables though. The scariest part was pulling down the CPU lever.
So anyway as the subject says I'm confused about the PSU installation.
My case is an Antec 300 and the PSU is a Corsair 650HX. It looks like this:

First I put the fan side facing up to the case, but then I realized that only 2 of the holes match on the back. And also the writing on the PSU was upside down.
So I turned it around and put the fan facing down, which again only had 2 of holes matching on the back. This position didn't make sense to me though what can the fan do if it's down?
So I turned it back to top and used two screws, it seems to hold well although I kinda have a feeling I did something wrong.
I did a bit of image searching and came across this photo:

So the fan is supposed to be down?
I'm so confused.
Appreciate any help, thanks.
