Hey.. is it worth having a 120mm exhaust fan in the back of my case if the psu directly above it is also exhausting? would it be better just to replace to 120mm fan into the front of the case?
 
Many power supplies do have the ability to exhaust, but since all that air is going through the PSU itself it makes it hard to just pull air out. 120's make great exhaust fans, I'd stick with one there.
 
I consider intake fans to be utterly useless, since it are exhaust fans which create airflow through the case. So yes, having a 120 mm fan exhausting air would probably be a good idea.
 
actually the best thing to do would be to put 1 as an exhaust then buy another for an intake....
 
ok thanks for all the replys ill stick with it being exhaust..

hrm, i may go with 2 fans but for the intake fan ill prolly just get something cheap, quiet, and not too fast cuz i dont think i need THAT much cooling since the temps arent bad the way it is now.. anyone know a cheap 120mm fan shipped? usually get raped on shipping
