i have antec sx-830 and i had like for 6 months was just wondering something about the PSU. the people that have the antec sx-830 does your psu blow out the hot hair or does it cool down the power supply. this may sound stupid the reason i am asking is because my fan inside the power supply seem to be blowing on the powere supply not blowing the hot air out. is this okay? just wondering any post are welcomed. i have other a4 different case and they blow the hot air out of the psu is correct?

The fan in my Antec power supply does the same thing as yours. Every other PSU I've had always blew the hot air out. Since I had about a 10 degree drop in case temperature after switching to the Antec SX830 I am not going to complain! OK, one complaint: I was hoping it would be quieter.

i didnt use the psu with it. but it shoud not blow in it should blow out. otherwise it messes up air flow. and its Stupid anyways.

I have an SX830 with the origanl power supply and mine blows out

i have contacted antec corp to see what i can do to resolve the issue i was thinking of opening the power supply but i think would that not void warranty on my power supply.

So what did Antec say you should do?

but now i am thinking wouldnt just be easier for me to fix it myself.
