I'm building a server with a Xeon processor and SuperMicro motherboard. I'd like to get some suggestions on how to design the case to properly vent heat out the back of the case.

Should I use a PSU that sits on the bottom? (as the style is now)

Should I purchase a cooler that direct air right out the back?

Should I add an extra 120 mm fan to that air cooler?

Should I worry about placing a fan on the front of the case? (inside of course)

I'd like to do some testing with thermal sensors, any suggestions on where I might find inexpensive sensors?
