i currently have my other computer taken apart and i'm rebuilding it. if i have 2 case fans in the front of my case, with the label on them facing towards the front of the case, will they blow air out of the case or suck it in? i forgot which way i need to have them :\ are the labels on all fans universal as to which way the air goes?
 
Nearly every fan blows toward the label. Check the rim of the fans for directional arrows; nearly every fan has them, too. You want the fans at the front or side as intake, the fans at rear or top as exhaust.
