New case?

Ev0lu7i0n · 8 Jan 2012 at 12:57

i bought a antec 750, its the first power supply iv had with a fan in the top/bottom (depending on how u look at it

)

basicly, atm its sucking air in from inside the case becuase my case hasnt got vents in the top for it to suck air threw outside, if you get me.

all i want to know is, is this ok? should a upgrade to a case with vents in the top? does it realy matter?, its very cramped in my case as it is, gigabite network gaming card, sound card, and msi 570 huge gphics card all in there, its a bigish case but i feel the air flow it a bit .. rubbish?

it is ok to have the psu taking air in from the inside of the case. wat case is it?

It shouldnt make much difference. What kind of intakes do you have on your case?

Only thing i will say is i like my vents pointing out i once dropped a screw into my corsair HX750, it got jammed inside on some components and i had to void my warranty taking it apart to get the ******* thing out.

Lesson learned the hard way now all my cases will have the fan to the outside of the case

its a old gigabite case, like 4-5 years old iirc, it has 1 fan sucking air in at the back, 2 squar vents side by side without fans on the side having air puhed out.

cant tell u exactly what case it is sry, but thnx for puting my mind at rest anyway
