Hi,
Im not an absolute newbie to PC building but for the first time I will be using a case verry similar to the pic below - mATX with power supply in separate chamber to the side rather than the regular basement in an ATX case. Like the pic, the case comes supplied with fans installed including 3 in the top. I will be using an AIO cooler so instead will install the radiator at the top and so want to move the 3 top fans as shown to the bottom (it's an open grid with dust filter). My question is: which would be the best direction for the bottom fans to spin - blowing out to exhaust the heat from the case, or reversed to bring cooler air in? NB- There will be a graphics card which, due to the compact size of the case, will be close to the bottom with fans blowing down?
Thanks!
