Which way should I mount the Akasa Apache fans to the cpu, I know which dirrection for intake arrows but not the right and left arrows depenidn which way I rota the fan, Should I have an arrow pointing to the roof of case, side vent or toward the botton intake fan ?

Is it an arrow to show where air flow is coming from or where a i should direct the fan to intake the air flow (from the dirrection) I that makes sense haha
 
Im assuming this fan is going onto your megahelims (saw your build thread) If so youll want it like this.

With the fan set this way, air is pushed through the heasink, the directional arrows indicate airflow and rotaion direction, the fan rotaes counter clockwise.

Lol well i've got that arrow pointing to the bottom of the case (don't think it really matters, but i've set them up identically anyways) and the other arrow pointing to the back and exhausting out.

Thanks guys, I've had them pointing to the top fan for now, doubt it will make much difference, build should be finished in a couple of hours :)
