Hey guys i buy a be quiet! rock 3 and i want to instal it the side of the text, to push the hot air exit on the top of the case. 

Is that gonna be a problem ?

Why every body push hot air in the back and not on the top ? 

Why be quiet but the text this side if we should push air on the back of the case ?

 

What do you think ?

You can blow air out the top if you want, it makes no difference.

As long as it securely mounts you're fine.

And we mostly use front -> back systems so that you can have versatility, it can be placed on carpet w/o worrying about not taking in air, stuff like that.

 

Personally, I'm cooling my home gaming rig with front -> back, and my lan rig is cooled from top -> bottom.
