Yesterday I got my Antec 300 and I am delighted with it. With that, it means I can modify my old case (a Xion Onyx, if anyone is interested), and one thing I wanted to do is flip the top-mounted PSU over and have it exhaust its heat directly out of the case. I'm a confused though: I've searched...

I just got myself an Antec 300. Awesome case, fits my 4870 nicely (with space for one more), looks awesome and the cooling is fantastic (I stuck 3 Akasa Silent Blue 120mm fans into it, keeps everything very cool). Its about $60 on Newegg, but I'm sure it can be had for cheaper elsewhere...

Thanks guys! I do try... :D

3 x 5.35inch drive bay covers, a bit of super strength glue, 1 x 120mm fan plus fanguard and 15 minutes with a dremel = ghetto fan mod. And pictured below is the old 550watt PSU I ripped the 120mm fan guard from.

Thats an awesome build... What kind of temperatures do you get with that?

Needed to exhaust some of the hot air from my HD4870 card, so I slapped a 92mm fan in there. Works well, dropped ambient temps by about 7°C and dropped my GFX idle temps by 15°C. Under load it can still peak at about 80°C, but at least it isn't pushing 100°C anymore.
