Fractal Define R3 with Antec HCP 750w

[Gdllr]

I currently have these 2 in my build. My problem is that the bottom PSU vent for the Fractal R3 case is quite small and doesn't match up with the HCP fan, leaving about half of it blocked by the case, obscuring air intake. Is this supposed to be okay or is there any way around this?

That case has two sets of power supply mounting holes, flip the power supply upside down so it's exhausting case air, problem solved!

It's all the new rage Better breathing for your power supply (not restricted to sucking from the little gap between the bottom of your case and whatever it's sitting on), and of course cleaner air (although a littler warmer). I think you'll like it!
