[–] brisk@aussie.zone 9 points 1 year ago (9 children) ... did they stop putting PSUs at the top? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 9 child comments replies: [–] LordWiggle@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago (8 children) Always at the bottom these days permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 8 child comments replies: [–] Sombyr@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 year ago (7 children) My desktop has it at the top, as did the PC I had before it a few years ago. I've seen PCs with it at the bottom, but I've never owned one, so hearing that they're always at the bottom is weird to me. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 7 child comments replies: [–] LordWiggle@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago (5 children) Here you see all cases with either the PSU in the bottom, or with some in the back when it's a wide case. No where in the top of the case. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 5 child comments replies: [–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (2 children) Just turn the case around.

I bought a PSU made for being at the bottom, and placing it in their meant giving it the CPU heat in its intake. It felt like it would burn up any minute. I took some used aluminium cans, cut them up using expensive scissors (~5x the price of normal scissors, in turn, it won't go bad, cutting plastic boxes and aluminium sheet) and made a frame to mount the PSU on the top, instead of inside the case. The wires had to go around, making it a partially open case, but it worked. No feeling of imminent fire hazard and the PSU was exhausting air at a relieving temperature. permalink fedilink source parent
