There's hole at the bottom of the case. It's shown in the picture.

I just noticed something odd in the picture. He put his video card not at the 1st PCIe X16 slot.

There's a grate of holes just like the one next to it under the PSU. I was always made to believe the fan on the PSU should be pointing up. If I decide to do SLI should I point it downwards? I'll be doing the rearranging once I get home from work today and install my Crosshair V.

Flip that PSU upside down. But also move your cards around. Put the graphics card in the top slot , the one right below the ethernet card, and you will be peachy. Never use the bottom slots unless you ahve 2 cards.

Figured I'd update this with some good news.

Ever since I put in my Crosshair V Formula motherboard and switched everything around, the game runs at around 77 degrees with the fan being on auto. It definitely helped moving it away from the psu, that's for sure. However, I can't flip it over because it doesn't sit right since the cage for the fan sticks out a little bit. I don't think I'll be SLIing for a while anyway so it's nothing to worry about for now. I plan on returning my 560 Ti and getting a GTX 670 next week.

Thanks for the help guys!

Comeonnnn... put that video card on the 1st PCIe X16 slot. You're the only one that I've seen in million years putting a single video card at the bottom.
