I have a corsair 600t case and noticed on you tube the tech mounted the fan downward because i have screen filter on the bottom, can that create prob

It's not a problem. They're designed to be mounted that way, as the screen is used as a dust filter. All you need to do is periodically slide the screen out (it's easily removable) and blow the dust off of it. In fact, mounting it this way if possible is even better, as the PSU will take in cool outside air instead of hot air from inside of the case, and exhaust it out the back of the case so the air is completely separate from the rest of your components.

It should be fine. I personally mount my psu the same way to get cool air from the bottom of the case. Just remember to clean your air filter every so often.

The direction the fan on the PSU is facing doesn't really matter. There is no wrong way to mount the PSU. I personally prefer the PSU mounted with the fan facing down so it gets access to its own fresh air supply instead of using air that's already in the case.

Can't say for sure, I took a look at pictures of the case and there's some sort of circular pipe looking thing on the side panel that would probably interefere if it's there. The fan tower will be taller than a high-end graphics card, by about an inch or so. If there's anything on the side panel over the CPU area I'd say there's a good chance there will be interference.

Usually, a front fan brings air in and, indeed, the product description says : "positive pressure with removable fan filter". I cannot tell you how good or bad the fan is, I returned the case before even using it.

I use it in the reverse way since i have a 120MM, but the case supports a 140mm fan. It's been in this configuration for a few years now with no issues.

If possible, you want a "chimney effect" where the hot air is "pulled" out. I prefer to have my fans on top. Most cases and components and cases are designed and positioned to take advantage of heat rising to help the airflow. If your equipment has any other fans, use the external to assist their flow, not compete against it.

I use it with a Dell tower - fan is in the back. Not sure about a fan/vent on the bottom.

Sadly, no. The back of this case only allows for an 80mm fan. However, you can put a 120mm fan in the front and on the side. I had a bad experience when I bought this case, but if you can overlook the 80mm fan in the back and the cheap feel then go for it. Just remember, you pay for what you get. I'd recommend a Lian Li case for an ITX setup. Good Luck!

These are not filtered on the sides but there are perferated holes. I have installed 2 fans (120M) on 1 side. It is a monster of a case with many options for airflow. I have had mine for 3 months now, and I am very satisfied with it. I have 7 total fans installed, and honestly, even with the video card (dual fan) and the Processor Cooler (dual fan) it is not noisy at all!! Great Case! Highly recommended.

Very easily. The front panel clicks in place and the filter is removed by pushing on a tab. I recommend AnandTech's review for more detail: http://www.anandtech.com/show/6917/corsair-obsidian-350d-case-review

For regular case its posible as long as its not covering any exhaust fan. Or else your comp will over heat. Rear top is covered as well like 4 inches u might wanna check that if u have clearance. But for me i have a gaming case and has 2 fan upfront 1 fan at side 1 fan top and fan rear so its imposible for me. Hope this helps

no....it did not have any filters except for the bottom under the power supply. So far it has done fine without any filters in the front two fans. A little build up in the screen but I just wipe it off.

As long as the power supply is installed so the fan is facing down; you're good to go. I've used an Swiftech AIO water system on top for the cpu and fans throughout. No problems.

it can b a intake or xhaust to the case ,had it mounted to top as intake but was to loud, was setting right beside me. am going to try it as a xhaust in another case with fan speed controler

rig it lol. I have one rigged to the front at the bottom, I bent the metal corners of the black metal screen to hold it.No actual fan slot afaik.I would do intake from the bottom, just use something to screen dust.

Depends on which way you place it. You can have it push or pull air. I have two in my case now, one as an intake and one as an exhaust. The side with the Corsair label is where the air is pulled from, opposite side is where it's pushed out.

negative. well. perhaps if you turn all the so that they blow air into the case it would be a positive pressure. I run the fans on the front pulling in air and the top fan and back fan so that they force the air out and my power supply sucks air in from the base and out the back independent of the case ventilation. I have two fans I planned on adding to the bottom forcing air into the case. at this point the motherboard temp cpu and memory are staying cool. I have have sabertooth mb that has thermal controls for the fan.
