So as we all know the Armor flips the PSU on its side with the fan facing into the case. There's a removable HD cage right next to the PSU fan. So I've seen some people advise yanking the HD cage in order to give the PSU some breathing room. Then I've seen other people say with the HD cage removed, the rear case fan will suck all the air away from the PSU fan anyway. Trouble is, both points sound valid.

What do you guys think?
 
I think (since you asked)

That there is no other fan (being reasonable) that could be mounted in the case, that could be so powerfull as to cause a significant lower air pressure at the PSU fan intake so as to affect its operation at all.

Unless the HD cage was right up against the fan, while it might cause some airflow noise, I have a hard time seeing it affect airflow significantly.

Now if we were talking about a fan trying to blow on something, thats different, but this thing is sucking and its gonna suck. :p
