I have an antec 900 case and my cpu cooler is an ocz vendetta 2 and since there is a top fan and a rear fan I wondered which fan should i point it to. The top or the rear fan?

Either one will work. Are both of the fans the same or is one more powerful than the other? If there is a more poweful one point it towards that but there wont be a significant change either way.

Whichever way looks best IMHO.. i usually face mine so that the face it right side up.. Like my V8 isnt upside down or sideways in my setup.. so it uses the rear fan to point to exhast

Point it to the higher CFM fan.

Point it both ways and see which gives you lower temps. I had my HDT1283 mounted sideways in this case and it ran 8C hotter.
