Tuniq Tower

Everywhere that I go on the web people seem to have the TT round in different configurations. This is how I have it. I have a little system instability at the moment, although I think this is due to the gpu.

Can anyone definitively resolve which way round this cooler should be placed?

Specs:
Q9450 @2.9Ghz
4gb ddr2
500gb hdd
hd 4890 gpu

Welcome to the forums. Your pic dosent work but i think the best way to have it would be so the fan blows hot air towards the rear of the case

Thanks for the reply, just editing this pic just now, imageshack didn't work!

I can't work out which way round that is though. Hot air doesn't seem to come out at all (I sound like an idiot!)

Thanks.

Haha

Unscrew the top plate of the heatsink and pull the fan out. Then you will be able to check which direction it's blowing.

Oh and make sure your fan is working and that the fins are free of dust. I needed to blow out heaps of dust that were blocking a mates TT cooler.

Thanks for the help guys.

Sorted it out now, temps down just a few degrees according to Realtemp so it can't have been too bad.

Now I need to get shot of a defective HD 4890 and buy something a little fresher.
