Which way do you orient the power supply? Fan facing up or down

I installed the power supply with the fan facing down because my computer case has no opening above the power supply; in addition, while facing down, it acts as a cooler for the internal computer peripherals.

Fan tilts up and down only. Fan oscillates side to side or remains still. So you could let it oscillate to the left or right and then stop the oscillate.

Oh definately yes the fan in this power supply should always spin, because it is not thermally controlled. That is a hazard. It may damage your computer also if the power supply overheats and causes a fault. Please return it immediately.

That is the way mine is set up - and I also love my fan both the look and feel (the only fault I have with it is the light is on the soft side)

I have the same problem sometimes. I think that I turn it all the way clockwise then back all the way to the left or just turn it until the fans kick on. Is everything installed correctly? Won't hurt to double check and make sure the temp probe is secure.

Suggest contacting the manufacturer & ask if tilting the fan motor would be ok

the fan blade goes to the right. if properly installed the air will come out of the back of fan. if you close the case and turn it on you must be able to feel the fan blowing, if not it is installed wrong.

As long as the power supply is installed so the fan is facing down; you're good to go. I've used an Swiftech AIO water system on top for the cpu and fans throughout. No problems.

Either should be fine. You can always bend them off. They only give a bit more stability to the fan itself. It gets power via cable that is included. I'm running two of these in my server. Needed. A longer card they wasn't a blower type fan. I have one above and below my RAID card to keep it cool.

You can pu the PSU fan up or down. Fan up will cause it to intake air from near your gpu and that will cool gpu while increasing PSU temps. Fan down will make it intake air from outside of case through the bottum vent and make PSU run cooler.

The case supports installing the P/S "upside up or upside down", such that the fan can be on either side (user manual, page 2). The case filter is inside the front panel, and I am using the top fan for additional venting.

Two oscillating features; up and down or left to right. You are able to set the fan height with the up and down control and then select left to right operating mode (if you like).

I've tried both ways and in my setup, it was better to put upside down to blow directly on the warmest component. The fans move a lot of air. Try it one way and then another and compare what feels cooler. Even better if you can measure the temperature.

They designed this fan so that you can optimize the individual fan orientation to your liking. Although it can be somewhat limited you are able to freely adjust the fans' placement to your liking. If I were you I would change the fan position to cool that are of your laptop more effectively but ultimately it's up to you what you do with it.

Where are you planning to install the fan. If it is going in a mobo, which one?

I have no idea. I never could find a definitive answer anywhere. Even the box doesn't state which side is up. I used mine both ways and I honestly never noticed a difference either way.

The knob on the left is for heat intensity(low to high). The knob on the right is your power on, fan, and speed. Hope this helps!
