CPU Fan Placement

Hi guys,

Just a quick one and opinions wanted.
This is going to be going inside of This with this as the PSU. Now what Im wondering is what way should I mount the CPU fan.
Choice that I have are blowing out the exaust of the case, blowing out parrallel to the GPU etc or I can have it blowing out UP towards the PSU, this would obviously suck some heat off the GPU etc. Any suggestions? or is one way better than the other?

it is always good to have it blowing in the direction of the case airflow, from front to back.

agreed. looks like there is a fan right behind where your chip will be.
get it to blow straight out of there.

Hey guys, thanks for the input.

Im not a huge fan of parcel force to be honest at the moment. But should hopefully have a nice build tomorrow. Ill let you know how I get on.
