I have a new power supply I am mounting in my HAF case. The power supply mounts in the bottom of the case. The power supply I have has a huge fan on top. Should I place the fan right side up and allow the heat to pass thru the case or should I mount it upside down and direct the heat down & out the bottom?
 
Most power supplies I have seen that have a big fan on them actually pull air in rather than push it out. I dont see why you couldnt just mount it with the fan facing up that way it pulls the heat from your system and pushes it out the back of the power supply.
 
I would mount it with the fan facing the bottom so it pulls cold air from under your case through it. Almost all powersupplies take air from inside of the case and exhaust the air out the back.
