Your PSU will transfer heat to the air. How much depends mostly on how EFFICIENT your PSU is. Lets say your computer needs 260W of DC power, but it is only 70% efficient. That means your PSU will be pulling over 360W of AC power from the wall. So, where does the 100W of power go? Into the air.

Now, suppose your PSU was 90% efficient. That would be about 30W lost to heat instead of 100W.

This is one of the many reasons you should learn about PSUs before buying one. There is a guide in my signature.
