Nice neat system. But, uhh, isn't your PSU upside down?

umm... is it? really? The fan should be facing down? So right side up is up side down?

Yup, PSU fan down, it looks like the case has vents at the bottom. It will then pull in fresh cool air.
I have the same PSU in a new build.

Well, I never!

Now I feel like a real noob..

Well,, I'll swap it around when I put the other fans in. Tho, I can't see how much difference it will make.. I thought the way it was facing it would be taking warm air from the gfx card and vent it out the back.

6 of 1, half a dozen of the other.

If it make you feel better, I wondered why a new build wouldn't start once, I checked all my connections, took out the CPU, swapped RAM, etc. I found out I had accidently cut one of the wires to the power switch, so I had to use the reset switch as a power switch.

You GPU has its own fan to exhaust out the back plus the case fan (exhaust, yes?) above it, so it should be fine. The PSU needs cool air which is one reason I like the bottom PSU mount cases.

That's quite a system you've built there TanyaC, good job. 32 gigs of RAM should almost be enough.

Tanya,
Don't sweat the PSU position I like you installed my PSU upside down for the very reason of added case air flow and everything is in nice order.
