I have 3 case fans, one in the power supply (blowing out), one underneth the power supply by the CPU (blowing out), and one at the botton of the front of the case (blowing in).
My question is with the one under the power supply. Should it be blowing out as to take the heat away from the CPU or blowing in to give the CPU more air?
I figured that if its blowing out then alot of hot air maybe passing over the CPU, but if it was blowing in then it would be picking up the hot air directly from the power supply and putting it back into the case as if it was cycling in a circle?
Is there a easy sollution to this or is it just tough luck?
