Modding my Tsunami

[twitchee2]

So i was bored so im thinking what kind of project i want after finals next week. I am going to put 2 92 exhaust on the top. already have those. then i was thinking. What id i inverted my PSU so the fan was on the top and drill a 120MM fan hole as on the top of the case. then seal aground the PSU so it draws air thought that 120MM hole. does this sound like a good idea?

Not to me, but I don't have your case. I'll go look at pics, then come back and pick-it-apart

Hey! Last you posted everything was bitchin. Super cool and bragging about it.
If it's not broke.....Don't fix it.

I like positive case pressure=more intake than exhaust.

??Why open up the PSU's intake to dirt and liquid? The PSU does well exhausting case air.

i was thining make that read exhaust as a intake and have the top 92s as the only exhaust so that i have a positive vcase pressure becuase right now i think im got neative with 2 120, exhausting and 1 92 and 1 120 as intake

If you 5V the rear 120 exhaust you would probably get a slight positive case pressure and
the PSU's fan would draw more of the lower intakes air past the CPU. Just hook it up to the red wire on a 4 pin Molex. The yellow is 12V, the red is 5V. I bet that rear fan will start/run on 5V. Cost you nothing to try it.

(What are finals?? )

well all the fans are on a controller so they are all at 7v. which is the loswest. i was also thinki could do it tomarow becasue i am out of school cuz i broke my nose and had it fixed this morning so when i get all my hw ill have something to do

If you are refering to flipping the PSU over and cutting a hole in top of the case for
PSU intake.......No, I don't think it is a good idea. If you do it be sure and report back.
