It will be hard to rma for me becaause i need my computer, what happens if i leave it as it is. Currently the psu is facing upwards and getting a bit of air from the eraser sized vent and a couple holes. There are 2 fans at the front of the case for airflow. Would it be safe to keep it like this?

Would it void my warranty or stop me from sending it back?

I still have the option to send it back to newegg and get another one. Should i just do that?

Sorry, first time on a forum. Just joined the master race.

I have a: 4690k Gigabyte Z97-HD3 GTX 960 4GB asus Strix WD Blue 1 tb Gskill ares 8gb 1600 cx500 s340 enermax ets-t40

I have 2 fans in the fron of the case. I tried shaking the power supply i'll turn it on and do a stress test. It is loudest under load. Took my headphones off for a second while playing arkham knight and the sound scared me so much

So I just made my first build. My power supply is a cx500 by corsair and my case is the S340 by NZXT. As you know the case block most of the top part of the PSU. When I turn my power supply fan facing the bottom I hear a lot of banging and noise but when the fan is faced up there is no noise at all. Obviously all the airflow is provided by a rectangle the size slightly bigger than a 24 pin connector. What should i do? Will I have enough airflow if the fan is facing up? #firepole
