Power supply fan direction.

[Zayoid]

So i just recently purchased a NZXT Source 210 elige computer case and as far as i know, it doesnt come with a dust filter, so im kind of confused on whether to point my power supply fan up or down.
Thanks

I personally would point it down, as I don't want to be sucking the hot air coming off the GPU into the PSU.

I would just give it a good dusting with compressed air every few months, but it shouldn't be anything to worry about.

tall carpet point the unit up...hardwood floor or tile you can point it down. newegg and other sites sell the power supply dust covers. myself with long hair cats i have to point the power supply fan up or in a few weeks i end up with kittens in my case.
