Test fitting the parts. I found a way to put the fans in the rear for the T-60F top panel and still have the side covers slid forward like a stock system ...
My thoughts are:
1) making front fan an intake and relying on the uncovered PCI slots as exhaust is not going to be any more effective than the default configuration. You can kinda test it by doing what you want, while leaving PSU configuration intact (just "duct" its exhaust such that it does not go into the front fan (e.g., tape a piece of carton between the front fan and the PSU exhaust)
2) for "reversing" your PSU -- you should also think about adequately supporting PSU from the bottom, as when you make that whole, that little peg is going to be gone or weakened
Got the top fitted. Who said this cannot be done.Ha Ha
No shaved hooks and no modification of slots. Side and top panels just as secure as original and just as easy to remove.
Maybe pulling them off through the front panel? Since the front panel is easy to take off...
Hey All
I have a little bit of red in there and want to get a elegant lighting setup for this case. I like blue and just want a little glow showing the components in the smoked window. Everything will be black including the motherboard and the only red is the GTX275 edge band and the logo on the Corsair 620 PS. Everyone here got me to this point so help me out to get to the finish. Thanks

I am sending it out Monday and they will have it Tuesday. Hard to say right now. For $50.00 + shipping I hope it turns out well. I just love the case and with proper wire management and the #2404 bronze smoked Plexiglas window with the stock look I am going for it should be a clean design that FrLyWr would be proud of. Architect and prairie will get you in the ballpark for what I am trying to do.
haadij404 has got it. I just want to get a little cleaner then him. A tough assignment for sure.
One last thing.
With my two Gentle Typhoon's 120mm fans blowing out on top how should the flow for the front and back Gentle Typhoon's 120mm fans be? Many discussions. Remember I have no lower cage and only have a 128G SSD mounted in the lower 5,25" cage for storage and OS.
When I finally get around to putting a system into my A05 I intend to set the front and rear fans as intake and have my top 2 as exhaust. Seems to make the most sense to me since heat rises.
^^ that, plus you should also think about equipping the front fan with a filter in this situationWon't you still have a power supply fan exhausting out of the rear of the case at the same time as you are trying to intake from the 120mm fan right above the power supply?

No, I don't have the facts to argue for one configuration over the other, just bringing up something that I think is relevant. On a related note, I remember (albeit vaguely) somebody reporting on a practical analysis of this situation (basically trying it both ways) and finding that front exhaust was "cooler" by a couple of degrees ... I'd imagine there are many factors in play, and given that there are no irreversible changes involved in changing one setup to another, I'd suggest trying it both ways with one's particular setup and making a more informed choice.
